“Can they do that to us?” It’s the question that many federal grant recipients and subrecipients are asking as the Trump administration and its Department of Government Efficiency have been taking a “chain saw” to federal agencies and the programs they administer.
The blizzard of presidential executive orders and policy memoranda from the Office of Management and Budget has been dizzying. This activity has been followed by thousands of grant termination notices and scenes of federal employees leaving offices with personal belongings. Lawsuits contesting the substance and manner of the Administration’s actions have been just as robust.
How does all of this affect your organization? The details involve a deep dive into the laws, regulations, and award terms and conditions that apply to federal grants.
