The Idaho Humanities Council got a letter last week terminating all of their federal funding from the National Endowment for the Humanities.
The funding makes up 75% of their budget, and the council says it can’t go on without that money.
The endowment’s letter says, “The NEH is repurposing its funding allocations in a new direction in furtherance of the president’s agenda."
David Petty John is the council’s executive director, and he joined Idaho Matters to tell us what this means for Idaho.
