What it does
The bill lets a federal agency pay a relocating employee a single lump sum instead of reimbursing individual relocation expenses.
The bill lets a federal agency pay a relocating employee a single lump sum instead of reimbursing individual relocation expenses. The payment is optional, and the head of the agency or a designee must authorize it. When used, the lump sum takes the place of the other relocation payments the employee would otherwise receive under the same part of federal law. Congress directs the General Services Administration to write rules for when agencies may use the lump sum, how they calculate the amount, and how an employee can dispute a denied claim and appeal to the Civilian Board of Contract Appeals. Within three years each agency must report on usage, disputes, and cost savings, and the GSA Administrator must analyze that data for two congressional committees.
Each stop is a step the bill’s own record states, with the date it happened. A ring is a step not yet taken. A bill becomes law when the President signs it or Congress overrides a veto.
At least 2 organizations named this measure in a lobbying filing. A floor, not a total: they were counted by the client name on 5 quarterly reports filed by 1 lobbying firm and by 1 organization lobbying for itself in 2025 Q4, 2026 Q1, 2026 Q2 and 2026 Q3. An organization that lobbied this measure without naming it is not counted here.
The filings record that lobbying was reported on the measure. The form has no per-bill dollar figure and no field for a position, so nothing here says how much was spent or which side an organization took.
The organizations named: National Treasury Employees Union; Worldwide Erc, Inc. Listed as filed. They are every client name on the filings counted here.
From the LD-2 quarterly lobbying filings published at lda.gov by the Senate Office of Public Records. Read for 2025 Q1, 2025 Q2, 2025 Q3, 2025 Q4, 2026 Q1, 2026 Q2 and 2026 Q3. Our copy holds 24 fewer filings for 2025 Q1, 39 fewer filings for 2025 Q2, 42 fewer filings for 2025 Q3, 33 fewer filings for 2025 Q4, 28 fewer filings for 2026 Q1, 48 fewer filings for 2026 Q2 and 218 fewer filings for 2026 Q3 than the Senate's register counts, so those quarters are the filings we could read rather than every one filed. 2026 Q4 is still inside its filing window, so that quarter is only the filings posted so far.
