The JFK Presidential Library and Museum reopened with free admission after a sudden closure due to employee firings linked to the Department of Government Efficiency's budget cuts. The director stated that senior staff would fill in as ticketing staff during this transition. The JFK Library Foundation expressed devastation over the terminations. Grandson Jack Schlossberg criticized the government, claiming these actions reflect an attack on historical memory rather than genuine efficiency concerns. The National Archives anticipated welcoming visitors, though without additional commentary on the firings.
As the Foundation that supports the JFK Library, we [were] devastated by this news and will continue to support our colleagues and the Library.
Our country is under attack from our own government. They are using propaganda to steal the past away from the American people.
