Advocacy Hour: Ring Your Representative to Stop the OMB Rule
August 11 @ 1:30 pm - 2:30 pm
Research!America hosted a webinar on Aug. 11, 2026, to provide an interactive advocacy training and phone bank focused on contacting members of Congress about the Office of Management and Budget’s proposed rule, “Regulation for Federal Financial Assistance.” This rule could upend how federal research gets funded, from grant terminations to political interference in merit review. Research!America Senior Director of Policy and Advocacy Erin Darbouze, MPH, shared practical tips and tricks for effective in-district advocacy. Whether you’re new to advocacy or looking to sharpen your skills, this video is for you.
