Link worked and I successfully pasted the copy of your suggested text in the portal comment box. It took me 30 seconds or less.

EVERYONE DO THIS! It could NOT be any easier but the impact is powerful. 💙

Dr. Judy Stone warns in her Forbes article “How The OMB Rule Could Hurt You And Your Town” at https://www.forbes.com/sites/judystone/2026/06/24/how-the-omb-rule-could-hurt-you-and-your-town/?streamIndex=0,

“Do NOT cut and paste. Your comment must be unique or will be cut by AI.”

I built a free online tool to help people write their comments in < 2 minutes.

👉 OMB Rule Comment Assistant: 🔗 https://ombcomment.netlify.app/

The assistant was made to get you to a strong, personal first draft fast, so you actually finish and submit before the deadline of July 13th.

Yes - I did say a draft for people to edit but this is a good reminder - I will adjust my article to reflect how serious it is that each comment be unique.

I added my comment last week. Today is the last day. C’mon people, Russell Vought is destroying science and medical research grants and wants political appointees to award them. It literally takes maybe a minute, tops, to leave a comment. Let’s do this.

FYI, Meta related social media is glitching out when I try to post this. Might just be a coincidence, might not
