Despite being fully funded by Congress in March 2025 through a Continuing Resolution, Fiscal Year (FY) 2025 appropriated dollars for the Historic Preservation Fund (HPF) still haven’t been released.
Additionally, the Administration’s proposed FY 2026 federal budget would slash the HPF almost entirely — a devastating blow to the people and programs that safeguard our shared heritage.
Congress needs to hear from you!
