Under the new bill (HR 2788), National Endowment ™ Arts (NEA) and National Endowment for the Humanities (NEAH) funds can not be used for works that, in the judgement oi the endowments, "may be considered" obscene and that do not have 'serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value." i _ The conference also agreed to set aside $250,00 to form a ^-member commission to review the procedures of the NEA and NEAH and reccomend possible standards for the awarding of future grants. The proposed panel would report to Congress four months after enactment of the bill.4
