Congressional Testimony

My name is ***, thank you for taking the time to hear testimony today in support of retain the National Endowment for the Arts. The NEA is an independent federal agency that funds, promotes, and strengthens the creative capacity of our communities by providing all Americans with diverse opportunities for arts participation (need to paraphrase, it is from NEA’s website).

As an independent agency of the federal government, its importance can not be ignored. Up to present, the NEA… The NEA has helped nurture the arts in the country and made it accessible to all Americans.

more programs can be supported, more jobs can be created, and more people can enjoy the arts in their communities.
