Summary

OMB issued a proposed rule to bar federal grant funding for programs promoting "gender ideology" and related concepts across all agencies — a domestic analogue of the January 2026 State Department award term that would embed the terminology restriction into the Uniform Guidance grant framework and condition future federal funding on grantees' content and language. (See section 9 for funding mechanics.)
