ALA Goes to Court

Thank you, American Library Association! 

The American Library Association announced that it just filed a lawsuit, along with AFSCME, "to stop the President’s attempts to illegally dismantle the Institute of Museum & Library Services. Today we filed suit in federal court to halt and reverse the gutting of the only federal agency dedicated to library funding. The President does not have the authority to destroy a federal agency. That’s why we’re taking action with our co-plaintiff AFSCME."

We still have egregious state laws that most likely will need a lawsuit, too, but this is great news!
We're going to court to protect library funding. Show up for our libraries, American Library Association.
