#STOPOMB #SAVESCIENCE
OMB Deadline Day Rally - The Fight is Just Beginning About Stand Up for Science, in partnership with the American Association of University Professors (AAUP) and the American Federation of Teachers (AFT), is hosting an accessible virtual rally to sustain and expand public pressure against OMB’s proposed rule. Even after the official comment deadline, the work continues. This rally will bring together scientists, faculty, teachers, students, and impacted community members to continue raising the alarm about this dangerous politicization of federal funding. Join us to send a clear message to Congress and the Administration that funding decisions should not be left to political appointees and OMB’s proposed rule should be rejected in its entirety. You’ll also hear about the next steps we have planned for this fight. Featured speakers include scientists and community members directly affected by the administration’s actions, members of Congress, leaders from AAUP, AFT, and SUFS. Members of the press are invited to attend and cover the event. Help us spread the word — the fight doesn’t end on July 13. *Accessibility note: This webinar will feature ASL interpretation and closed captioning will be available in multiple languages. When Monday, July 13, 2026 · 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time (US & Canada) (GMT -4:00)

STOP OMB. SAVE AMERICAN SCIENCE. The Trump Administration’s Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has proposed sweeping nation-wide revisions to grant funding. The proposal would replace the current process of peer review with a “pre-issuance review” of every discretionary grant by political appointees. These proposed changes are politically motivated, will allow for the cancellation of current research for political motives and will have significant consequences for universities and the broader US research community. Public comments are due by MONDAY, July 13. Get more info & send your comment today at the link in caption.
