Trump greift die Bibliotheken an

Präsident Trump hat den Executive Order 14084 vom 30.9.2022 (Förderung der Künste, der Geisteswissenschaften und der Museums- und Bibliotheksdienste) rückgängig gemacht (via action.everylibrary.org):

“It hasn’t even been 24 hours and one of Trump’s first actions was to rescind Biden’s Executive Order 14084, titled “Promoting the Arts, the Humanities, and Museum and Library Services.”

Biden’s E.O. broadly aimed to support the nation’s creative and cultural economy in part by advancing “equity, accessibility, and opportunities for all Americans … to realize their full potential through the arts, the humanities, and access to museum and library services.””

Everylibrary befürchtet:

“Trump’s previous administration proposed eliminating all federal funding for libraries.

This action is the first step in dismantling the Institute of Museum and Library Services.

We know his supporters are enacting state legislation to arrest librarians, ban books, and defund libraries.”
