Congress needs to act now to stop the Trump administration's political interference in the Smithsonian Institution. Museums and monuments exist to preserve and present accurate history — not to reflect the ideological preferences of whoever holds power at a given moment. That line must be defended.
When an administration starts reshaping what Americans can learn at their national museums, it's not a policy disagreement — it's an attack on the historical record. The Smithsonian belongs to the public, not to any political agenda. I expect you to use every legislative tool available to block this interference and protect the integrity of our national institutions.
