Presidential Message Issued on National American History and Founders Month

November 9, 2026

The White House released a presidential message from President Trump on November 9, 2026, marking National American History and Founders Month. The message honors the Founding Fathers and encourages Americans, especially young people, to learn more about the nation’s history. It says the administration has taken steps to address what it describes as ideological bias at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History and in schools.

The message says the president signed an Executive Order directing the use of all available resources to correct issues identified in an administration report on the museum, inform visitors of ideological bias, and ensure an accurate presentation of history. It also notes restoration of landmarks, efforts against classroom indoctrination, and the work of Task Force 250 on America’s 250th birthday events.
