## Summary

**Annual public reporting of EBSA investigations.** This bill would require the Employee Benefit Security Administration (EBSA) to submit a yearly report to Congress listing each enforcement investigation's regional or district office, investigation opening date, the date EBSA first requested documents, and whether the investigation closed within a 36-month period measured from that document request date. - Plan sponsors, fiduciaries, and service providers: Their names and other identifying details must be excluded, so the report shows activity without naming private parties. - Employees and plan participants: Personal identities are protected because the bill bars reporting any information that would identify individuals involved in investigations. - EBSA: Would face a formal annual reporting duty with specific data fields and must provide explanations and estimated completion dates for investigations that exceed a 36-month window. - Congress and the public: Would receive standardized, year-by-year data on investigation timing and regional activity, increasing oversight and public accountability.
