The Protect Local Funding Act would prohibit the federal government from finalizing, implementing, or enforcing a proposed rule on Federal Financial Assistance that was published in the Federal Register on May 29, 2026. The bill specifically blocks the Office of Management and Budget Director and other federal agencies from putting this rule into effect or any substantially similar version of it. While the legislative text does not specify the exact details of the proposed rule being blocked, the bill's title suggests it is intended to protect local government funding from federal restrictions or conditions. The bill was introduced in June 2026 with bipartisan support and referred to the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. No specific funding amounts or implementation timelines are included in the legislation.
