The bill adds a new section to title 31 of the U.S. Code requiring agencies to build internal-control plans before the next round of emergency spending. Within 180 days, and every three years after, the Office of Management and Budget must issue guidance for agency plans that are ready or adaptable for a future disaster, pandemic, economic relief, or other emergency supplemental appropriation. The guidance must fold in Government Accountability Office frameworks for managing improper payments and fraud risk and must require real-time, data-driven payment monitoring such as anomaly detection and network analysis. Each covered agency must name a senior official accountable for its plan, submit the plan within one year, and revise it at least every three years, with OMB assembling the plans for two named congressional committees. After an agency first obligates emergency funds, it has 180 days to submit an after-action review reporting control failures and the number and amount of improper payments. The bill authorizes no additional funds to carry it out.
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 3 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 3 organizations lobbying for themselves in 2026 Q2 and 2026 Q3. An organization that lobbied this measure without naming it is not counted here.
1 of those filings did not cite this bill by number. They named a short title it shares with its Senate companion, S 78, so the reference belongs to the pair rather than to one chamber’s vehicle.
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 Council of Nonprofits (Formerly Known As the National Council of Nonpro; Rsm US LLP (Formerly Known As Mcgladrey LLP); National Treasury Employees Union. 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.
