About This Bill
Committee
Latest Action · November 20, 2024
Read twice and referred to the Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship.
The SBA Disaster Transparency Act requires the Small Business Administration to publish disaster assistance reports on its public website in addition to submitting them to Congress. Currently, the SBA submits various reports on small business disaster loans and assistance to congressional representatives, but these reports are not made publicly available online. This bill would ensure that reports covering disaster assistance data and program details are accessible to the general public through the SBA's website, improving transparency around how disaster aid is distributed to small businesses. The legislation does not establish new funding requirements or specific timelines for implementation. The bill affects small business owners, taxpayers, and the general public who seek information about federal disaster assistance programs.
