This bill adds a new measure to the federal small business contracting scorecard. Agencies would have to report how many new small business entrants won prime contracts in each industry code during the fiscal year, broken out for firms owned by service-disabled veterans, HUBZone firms, disadvantaged-owned firms, and women-owned firms, with a comparison to the prior year where available. The bill defines a 'new small business entrant' as a firm that won a federal prime contract and had never been awarded a prime contract by any federal agency before. It also defines 'scorecard' as an agency rating summary that includes the listed measures and assigns each agency a score. A final section states that no additional money is authorized to carry out the bill.
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 14 quarterly reports filed by 2 organizations lobbying for themselves in 2025 Q1, 2025 Q2, 2025 Q3, 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: Disabled American Veterans; National Small Business Association. 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.
