Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
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 as currently required. The bill amends existing law to ensure that reports on small business disaster loans and assistance programs are made publicly accessible online, allowing business owners, community leaders, and the general public to view detailed information about how disaster aid is being distributed. There is no new funding mechanism or specific timeline established in the legislation; it simply mandates that existing reporting requirements include web publication. The bill affects small business owners and the general public by increasing transparency around federal disaster relief programs, making it easier for stakeholders to track how assistance is allocated following disasters.
