Here’s How Trump’s Tax Plan Crushes America’s Arts Programs

Creators: If Donald Trump's America First Tax Plan, announced this morning, were to pass in full, it would gut the programs that fund Sesame Street, the Crawley family, and arts organizations all over the country.

The proposed budget eliminates funding to the National Endowment for the Arts, which funds local art and theater communities in all 50 states, as well as the National Endowment for the Humanities, the Institute of Museum and Library Services (ILMS), and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting—which supports the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS), home of Downton Abbey, Sesame Street, Arthur, and more.
