Improving Oversight of Federal Grantmaking

This executive order overhauls federal grantmaking by requiring senior political appointees to review all discretionary grants and funding announcements, bans funding for DEI initiatives, transgender education, illegal immigration support, and 'anti-American values,' mandates termination-for-convenience clauses in all grants, limits indirect costs at universities, and directs OMB to revise the Uniform Guidance to streamline applications and reduce administrative overhead.
