Background: The OMB’s proposed overhaul of the federal government’s Uniform Guidance significantly alters the regulations that govern most federal grants and financial assistance programs. If adopted, the proposal would make far-reaching changes to the way federal funding is awarded, administered, and monitored across virtually every sector that receives federal support. The proposed revisions would grant agencies expanded authority to impose political and ideological priorities on funding decisions, fundamentally altering the longstanding framework that governs federal financial assistance. The proposed rule would attach new political and ideological requirements to federal funding, making it harder for organizations to receive or keep grants if their work conflicts with the administration’s priorities. It would prohibit the use of federal funds for activities related to what the administration defines as DEI initiatives, “gender ideology,” or gender-affirming care for transgender youth, creating uncertainty for schools, healthcare providers, researchers, and nonprofit organizations.

The proposed rule is not yet in effect. It is subject to a 45-day public comment period which closes on July 13, 2026. After reviewing submitted comments, OMB may choose to finalize the rule as written, revise it, or decline to move forward. Comments are one of the most effective tools we have to slow, weaken, or stop harmful policies.
