Stop Trump's Proposed Elimination of IMLS!

About this Campaign

Page 56 of Trump’s proposed budget for 2027 calls for the closure of the Institute of Museum and Library Services. The ONLY source of federal funding for libraries.

This small but essential federal agency supports libraries and museums in every state, helping communities provide literacy programs, job training, internet access, early learning opportunities, and educational resources for people of all ages. If he eliminates the IMLS, local libraries and museums will lose critical support that millions of Americans rely on every day.

Now is the time to speak up. Sending a postcard to Congress is a powerful and personal way to make your voice heard. When elected officials receive handwritten messages from constituents, they pay attention. Your postcard can help show that communities across the country value libraries, museums, and the services they provide.

Join this campaign to send a postcard to your members of Congress and urge them to reject the proposed cuts to IMLS. Tell them to protect federal support for libraries and museums and invest in the educational and cultural resources that strengthen our communities. Your voice matters, and together we can help ensure these vital institutions continue to serve everyone.
