Passed on July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill (OBBB) Act represents one of the most sweeping federal funding packages in recent years, reshaping how states and local governments access and manage grants. Even though the OBBB does not have a big reach on the overall grant landscape, the bill brings a major infusion of funding for certain programs, and it also imposes new requirements.
In this session, you will gain practical insight into the OBBB’s impact on the funding landscape and how to prepare.
By joining this webinar, you will:
- Understand funding increases for enforcement initiatives.
- Learn the latest compliance requirements.
- Review the implications for local governments
