NIH Proposed Consolidation (5 ICs) — REJECTED

Funds proposed United States multi-institute reorganization ideas not attributed to an existing program.

This entry represents the Trump administration FY2026 OMB budget proposal to consolidate 19 of NIH's 27 Institutes and Centers into 5 new bodies. Congress rejected this proposal in enacted FY2026 appropriations; all 27 existing ICs are preserved. None of the 5 proposed ICs have ever existed as grant-issuing entities.
