Faster updates to federal contracting thresholds
This bill would change when federal contracting dollar thresholds get updated. The next update would be in 2028. After that, updates would happen every 3 years (2031, 2034, and so on). This would change timing only, not today’s dollar amounts. This would shift when some firms face different bidding rules. The bill text does not state an effective date.
