Don’t Let the Trump Administration Dismantle the Department of Education | NEA

Already, nearly half the department’s skilled staff has been laid off or forced out. Now, the administration is preparing to shift functions to other federal agencies—an unprecedented and illegal move that would send class sizes soaring, gut job-training opportunities, and usurps the power of Congress.

No One Should Go Hungry in America | NEA

More than 40 million people in the United States who rely on the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) to feed themselves and their families are at risk of losing their benefits in November. Urge your members of Congress to pressure USDA to release contingency funds to help people facing hunger, including students and some educators.

On This Day 27th October 1995.

VR-CAD, LearJet 35A, Northern Executive Aviation, taxiing out to the runway from the old South Side hangars, on one of the few occasions I ever went round that side.
The hangars are now buried under the 2nd runway, and the buildings in the background were demolished to make way for Terminal 3.
This plane served NEA for years, mostly after being UK registered as G-HUGG, and was based at MAN until at least the early 2000's, before being sold in Australia.

The right has long self-identified as the protector of free speech, except when that speech has to do with race, gender, sexuality, queerness, science, (non-Christian) religion, and anything else the Trump regime deems seditious, such as being critical of the government.

Four plaintiffs—Rhode Island Latino Arts, National Queer Theater, The Theater Offensive and Theatre Communications Group—sued federal officials following the signing of an executive order which directed the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) to disfavor grant applications that “promote gender ideology.” Artists, represented by the ACLU, argued this provision violated the First Amendment, the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), and the Fifth Amendment.

Revisiting the #NEA Four: #FreeSpeech Battles in the #Arts https://www.aclu.org/news/free-speech/revisiting-the-nea-four-free-speech-battles-in-the-arts

The annual program was set up in 1966 to foster American #fiction, #nonfiction & #poetry. The latest iteration of the fellowship offered fiction & creative non-fiction #writers a $50k #grant. Applications were due in March & notifications were to go out in Dec. But last week, notices were sent to applicants stating: "The #NEA has cancelled the FY 2026 #CreativeWriting Fellowships program."

The email…states that the NEA is canceling grants that exist outside of the #Trump admin's *priorities*.

#Trump cancels National Endowment for the Arts creative writing fellowship

Alice Walker. Charles Bukowski. Louise Erdrich. Juan Felipe Herrera. These are just some of the #authors who received a #CreativeWriting fellowship from the #NEA over the years. The fellowship has now been canceled.

Bravo to the National Education Association (#NEA, @neatoday) for voting to drop the Anti-Defamation League (#ADL) as a partner in developing school curricula.

From Judy Greenspan, the NEA delegate who introduced the motion: "The ADL…continually [tries] to equate criticism of #Israel with #antisemitism.”

#Republican lawmakers in #Congress are introducing a bill to revoke the federal charter of the National Education Association (#NEA), the country’s largest teachers union

https://theglobeandatlas.com/republican-lawmakers-aim-to-revoke-federal-charter-of-national-teachers-union/?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=jetpack_social

the National Educators Association is the largest union in the United States, with close to 3 million members across all levels of public and private education.

they just cut ties with the zionist-propped, genocide cheerleading, Anti-Defamation League.

https://mondoweiss.net/2025/07/the-national-education-association-just-voted-to-cut-all-ties-to-the-anti-defamation-league/

this is huge. #NEA is one of the most vanilla professional organizations saying, fuck y’all to one of the most reactionary and fascist-funded “legacy” J̶e̶w̶i̶s̶h̶ Zionist organizations in the USA.

WELL DONE NEA, WELL DONE

"Walt Whitman Would Have Hated DOGE —

... an essential question that any artist and civic figure who believes American ideals are worth sustaining must ask: How shall we honor, remember and learn from our national past? And how shall we transmit essential values of the past to citizens of the future?

A colleague's Importent article on Philadelphia arts organizations losing their NEA Grants

#Philadelphia #Arts #Theater #NEA

https://www.broadstreetreview.com/features/philly-arts-organizations-speak-up-after-the-trump-administration-revokes-their-nea-grants

"The Order targets #NPR & #PBS expressly because, in the President's view, their news & other content is not 'fair, accurate, or unbiased.'"

The “wolf”line was drawn from a 1988 dissent by the late #SCOTUS Justice Antonin Scalia.

The suit says the admin is usurping #Congress' right to direct how federal money will be spent & to pass laws. It names #Trump, OMB dir #RussVought, Treasury Secy #ScottBessent & #MariaRosarioJackson, the chair of the #NEA, as defendants.
