From the Joint National Committee for Languages and the National Council for Languages and International Studies:

As you've likely seen in the news since last week as the budget deadline approached, Congress has passed a funding bill that will fund all agencies of the government through fiscal year 2015, except for the Department of Homeland Security, which is funded through mid-March. JNCL-NCLIS has been tracking the appropriations process and dialogue and has submitted letters and comments to our contacts on Capitol Hill and in the appropriations committees, and many of you responded to action alerts and sent messages as well. Thank you to everyone who helped advocate for languages in the FY15 Appropriations.
