(Recorded Webinars) Quarterly Federal Grants Updates
This webinar series is included in the Federal Grants Training Membership.
Recorded throughout 2026
Federal policies can shift rapidly, affecting compliance, funding, and operations for states, local governments, and nonprofit organizations that rely on federal grants. To help grantees stay informed and proactive, in the midst of ever-changing conditions, Feldesman hosts a quarterly briefing series analyzing the Trump Administration’s federal funding actions—and the considerable impact on program requirements and regulatory compliance.
During each 60-minute session, Feldesman attorneys provide insights for recipients of federal funding in navigating important news and the evolving regulatory landscape. The webinar series updates participants on Administration policies and agency guidance and the ongoing federal court challenges to administration actions, providing an overview of the legal considerations around new Executive Orders and regulatory implementation, and detailing congressional action pertinent to federal grantees. Feldesman attorneys also explore strategies for sustaining funding stability and mitigating risk—to the extent appropriate—and provide anticipated next steps from an enforcement and litigation perspective.
Each webinar leads with vital breaking news, and then proceeds to a more in-depth discussion of applicable ongoing legal frameworks and practical steps for your organization.
Topics to be discussed include:
- Agency-by-Agency Rundown
- Litigation Status—Including New Court Orders and Injunctions
- Continuing Resolution and Budget Uncertainty
- Adding New Grant Conditions to Existing Grants
- Enforcement Actions Including Audits, Monitoring and Investigations
