Bruce Y. Lee
Summary
The article examines the Trump administration's new Office of Management and Budget (OMB) rule titled "Regulation for Federal Financial Assistance," which would significantly expand executive power to select, award, cut, and terminate federal grants. The rule has sparked widespread backlash from scientific organizations, patient advocacy groups, and other sectors of society who submitted public comments opposing the changes. The rewrite of 2 CFR Part 200 could have far-reaching impacts beyond science and health into virtually all sectors that rely on federal funding.
