HR 4672 United States House · 118th Congress

To amend title 40, United States Code, to prohibit the Administrator of General Services from constructing or acquiring public buildings or entering into leases based on the legality or availability of abortion, and for other purposes.

This bill prohibits the General Services Administration (GSA) from considering the legality or availability of abortion when acquiring, constructing, leasing, or entering into agreements for federal buildings or properties. It directly affects GSA's decisions regarding federal real estate, ensuring that such actions are not influenced by state abortion laws. The law amends specific sections of Title 40 (including building acquisition, construction, and leasing rules) to explicitly ban this consideration. It does not change abortion laws or apply to non-federal properties.
