Senators Collins and Grassley request OMB release of funds for inspectors general to maintain oversight and prevent waste.
Quiver AI Summary
U.S. Senators Susan Collins (R-ME) and Chuck Grassley (R-IA) have urged the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to reverse its decision to withhold funding for the Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency (CIGIE) and the Pandemic Response Accountability Committee (PRAC). They assert that inaction could lead to staff furloughs and the termination of critical functions aimed at preventing fraud in government.
The Senators emphasized that Congress has already appropriated the necessary funds for FY 2026, and any adverse outcomes would stem from OMB's funding decision, not a lack of appropriations. They noted that such a review of CIGIE and PRAC could proceed without halting their operations.
Collins and Grassley, who were instrumental in creating CIGIE through the Inspector General Reform Act of 2008, highlighted the importance of these watchdog organizations for government oversight and accountability, especially following the COVID-19 pandemic.
