The National Coalition for History reports that “[a]lthough the Bush administration has proposed cutting funding for the program in FY 2008 to $50 million, appropriations bills in both the House and Senate provide funding at $120 million.” Applicants must send a Notice of Intent to Apply by November 9, 2007, and an application by December 10, 2007.
