Preservation Action Joins Letter Urging Support for the Cultural Resources Challenge Act
Historic Preservation Blog from PreservationDirectory.com -
Contributed By: Preservation Action
Website: https://act.npca.org/page/66791/action/1?_ga=2.9612924.876514471.1720189969-1144637700.1720189969

This week Preservation Action joined a sign-on letter alongside a diverse group of more than 100 organizations urging Congress to support for the Cultural Resources Challenge Act (H.R. 7936). As noted in the letter, this important bill aims to address the urgent needs of our nation's cultural heritage sites, including national parks, monuments, and artifacts that tell the story of our diverse history. The letter, led by the National Parks Conservation Association, was sent to congressional offices this week. 

Introduced by Rep. Paul Tonko (D-NY), the Cultural Resources Challenge Act would provide an additional $250 million in funding for historic and cultural resources at the National Park Service, address staff shortages, and update interpretation at cultural and historic resource sites to enhance the visitor experience. This bill would also establish a competitive grant program focused on resiliency and accessibility of cultural resources, supporting projects that address climate change, involvement of underrepresented communities in historic preservation, and encourage future generations to engage in historic preservation.

Take Action!

As we quickly approach 250th anniversary of the United States of America, it is more important than ever to ensure our cultural heritage sites are preserved, safeguarding our history for future generations. Join is in urging Congress to support the Cultural Resources Challenge Act (H.R. 7936) today! Check out the alert from the NPCA and take action today!
