Federal Funding Updates

In January 2025, the White House began issuing executive orders, memos, and agency guidance, some of which impact federally funded grants and contracts. The Council for Government Relations has created a resource page with links to government documents, articles, and other materials related to these executive orders and policy changes affecting federally funded research.

Proposals

  • ORSP will continue submitting proposals as long as federal submission systems remain operational.
  • When preparing proposals, verify deadlines, as they may change, and confirm that funding announcements have not been revised.

Awards

  • Programs may experience restructuring, delays, or defunding; guidance will be provided as it becomes available.
  • Modifications, increments, or extensions may be delayed as federal programs undergo review.
  • Principal Investigators/Project Directors should immediately contact [email protected] if they receive a stop work order from their sponsoring agency.
