This is a chilling reminder that even if the courts fight off most of the Doge attacks on NIH, MAGA patsy Congress Critters can still block grant awards. Of course, blocking federal $ awards to their own constituencies might not seem smart to most of them.

ICs are required to send NoAs to Congressional delegation in advance of issuing NoA (part of delay between “prepared” & “released”). Usually used for bringing home $$ press purposes, but Rep/Sen has always been able to put a hold on an award at this juncture.
