HR 7302 United States House · 118th Congress

CAT Act

The CAT Act (HR 7302) requires public housing agencies to publicly disclose key details of all contracts on their websites within one year of the law's enactment. It mandates the disclosure of contract specifics - including the goods or services provided, the vendor, solicitation date, bids received, and the official who solicited the contract. This applies directly to all public housing agencies managing federally assisted housing. The law aims to increase transparency in how these agencies spend public funds by making contract information easily accessible to the public.
