This funding patch will allow the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) to continue to operate under its previous funding levels of $148 million.<\/p>\n<p>As you may recall, the House passed a nearly $2 million <i>increase<\/i> for the NEA this summer and the Senate committee approved an <i>increase<\/i> of $500,000, but there is no final bill. Instead, <b>the NEA will continue to receive current funding until the next deadline\u2014April 28, 2017<\/b>. This delay puts on hold agency plans and their proposed budget work for FY 2017.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, President-elect Trump may put together his own budget plan. Congress will start 2017 by\u00a0grappling with not only finding a way forward on this year\u2019s funding (the calendar began October 1, 2016) but also next year\u2019s. We will keep you updated as budget news happens.<\/p>\n<p><b> \u2022 Arts Education<\/b>: Since passage of the new K-12 education law, the <i>Every Student Succeeds Act<\/i>, we\u2019ve been tracking implementation. On November 28, the U.S. Department of Education released final regulations pertaining to state accountability plans, and included \u201carts\u201d in the list of well-rounded subjects.\u00a0Americans for the Arts called for this inclusion, along with 51 organizations. Our latest federal and state\u00a0materials are <a href=\"http:\/\/www.americansforthearts.org\/by-program\/reports-and-data\/legislation-policy\/legislative-issue-center\/arts-education-policy-and-funding\">here<\/a>. Under these final regulations, a state may now opt to submit its consolidated state plan on April 3, 2017, or September 18, 2017.<\/p>\n<p><b> \u2022 Transition<\/b>: As the new year begins, a new Congress will be taking seat, and the U.S. Senate will begin confirming appointments to lead the federal agencies\u2014including <b>nominee Betsy DeVos to head the U.S. Department of Education<\/b>. She\u2019s a promoter of school choice, but is also a backer of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.devosinstitute.umd.edu\">DeVos Institute of Arts Management<\/a> in Maryland and her family is involved in Grand Rapid&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.artprize.org\/devos-place-convention-center\">ArtPrize<\/a> in Michigan. We will continue to seek and cultivate these connections to the arts with your help.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re\u00a0also expecting infrastructure, tax reform, and<b> <\/b>jobs to receive attention in the first 100 days of the new administration\u2014all of which can impact the arts, from\u00a0<b>public art<\/b> and <b>business incubators<\/b>, to <b>charitable giving<\/b> and <b>community development<\/b>.
