NSF's TechAccess: AI-Ready America program (NSF 26-508) opens with a Round 1 Letter of Intent due June 16 and a budget that scales to $224 million across up to 56 awards — one State or Territory Coordination Hub per state, DC, and U.S. territory. Each hub is $1M/year for three years with a possible fourth, and is tasked with five concrete functions including a public AI resource inventory, a state AI readiness plan, deployment assistance, workforce coordination, and sector convening. The first round funds 10 hubs, the second 20, and the third the remainder — a structure that makes early submission decisively more valuable than late submission. Strategy for state agencies, university systems, EDAs, and nonprofit consortia considering a bid.
Read articleThe headlines on OMB's May 29 rewrite of 2 CFR Part 200 have focused on §200.205's political pre-issuance review.

That language demotes the peer-review-driven funding model that has defined the NIH, NSF, NEH, and DOE Office of Science research portfolios for fifty years to one input among several — replacing a presumption that scored panels drive funding decisions with a presumption that political appointees do. Comment deadline July 13, effective October 1.
