Ensuring Access to Whistleblower Protections Act
This bill requires the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to include specific whistleblower protection clauses in certain contract modifications. HUD must make "best efforts" to add these clauses to contracts modified within 180 days of the bill's enactment, covering extensions, renewals, cost adjustments, or other significant changes. It directly affects HUD contractors whose agreements undergo these types of modifications, ensuring whistleblower protections apply to those contracts.
