The path forward is clear. Executive Order 14253 directs the removal of improper ideology from Smithsonian properties and prohibits expenditures on exhibits that degrade shared American values or divide citizens by race.

The White House report recommends concrete reforms: restoring exhibits on the Founders and the American Revolution, eliminating the Center for Restorative History and its decolonization agenda, reforming hiring practices that discriminate against traditional Americans, and refocusing the museum on a coherent, unifying, and ennobling national narrative.
