    Reading Time:less than a minute

    The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has published a Notice regarding the delegation of authority to allocate funds. This delegation, effective February 11, 2025, was made under the 2023 Appropriations Act for the Executive Office of the President. The Director of the OMB, Russell T. Vought, has given the Program Associate Directors the power to distribute funds as authorized by law, while also allowing them to pass on this power if needed. This new delegation cancels any previous ones, but the Director still retains the ultimate authority to allocate funds directly.

    Simple Explanation

    The government office in charge of the budget is letting some of their team leaders decide how to share money, like when a teacher lets students help hand out cookies, but there are no clear rules on how to do it or checks to make sure they're fair.

    The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is allocating over $186 million in Community Development Block Grant Mitigation (CDBG-MIT) funds to grantees affected by 2018 disasters. This funding, authorized by the Additional Supplemental Appropriations for Disaster Relief Act of 2019, is meant for mitigation activities that increase resilience and reduce risks from future disasters in most impacted and distressed areas. Grantees must submit action plans detailing the use of these funds, which must focus on identified risk areas and can be leveraged through partnerships and coordination with other federal programs. HUD will provide technical assistance to smaller grantees to enhance the effectiveness of these mitigation efforts.

    The government is giving over $186 million to help places hit by disasters in 2018 become stronger and safer. But the rules to get this money are tricky, so it might be hard for those who need it to figure out how to use it right.
