History Now! Congressional Earmark for National History Day
- Target: Representative Ralph Regula, and Senator Tom Harkin, United States Congress
- Sponsored by: Glenn Siner
Petition Target: Representative Ralph Regula and Senator Tom Harkin
National History Day (NHD) is a nonprofit education program that provides a model solution to the challenge of what Congress has called the “growing historical illiteracy in America.” NHD Should receive a Congressional earmark to improve history education in America.
Our children deserve a good education, rich in American and World History. Tell the Congress to ensure that it will happen!
Representative Ralph Regula and Senator Tom Harkin
We, the undersigned, support a Congressional earmark for National History Day, Inc.
National History Day should be funded at the level of other education programs such as National Writing Project and Center for Civic Education, which today receive a $12 million annual appropriation.
The program reaches over 700,000 students, their families and some 40,000 teachers annually. The NHD national office and most state programs operate without government appropriations. A federal earmark would enable the program to help improve state programs and provide students essential skills that will help them at home, in school, at college and in the workplace.
Sincerely,
The Undersigned
