POA&M · Clarion Street

Oct 30, 2026 The Pause Has a Drafted Exit Ramp. It's a Smaller Phase 2.
The CMMC Reform Task Force's summary, obtained by Federal News Network, recommends restarting Phase 2 on a narrower population within a 90-day horizon and widening POA&Ms from 180 to 270 days. The narrowing runs through a CUI marking rule that has not published, and the summary was assembled in three days without the program office's involvement.
