revisions to the federal Common Rule governing research with human subjects. These changes, meant to take effect on January 19, 2018, would exempt oral history projects from disruptive and unnecessary Institutional Review Board oversight. However, the Department
of Health and Human Services is now proposing an indefinite halt on the implementation of the revisions, a move that could continue to hamper the work of historians across the country.
