Call Congress to fight Trump's anti-library agenda. Show up for our libraries. ALA American Library Association.
Congress is back in Washington this week. That means they need to hear from library advocates like YOU who care about federal funding for libraries.
Use our easy tool and script to call your members of Congress and tell them to protect library funding: bit.ly/CallCongressForLibraries
Have you watched this yet? If you can, make some time to watch it -- you'll be glad you did.
