Followup: I've confirmed that at least some NSF panels have been canceled/postponed today. I don't know if all have.
My guess is that this is due to unresolved issues about assessment of broader impacts statements and review criteria more broadly, in light of Trump's anti-DEIA executive order.

For those outside of academia, the Dept. Education thing is extraordinary interference.
I am not allowed to accept grant funding if the sponsor gets a say over what I publish. That's important. It protects me from outside pressure to tank results that are politically or financially inconvenient.
