SBA Disaster Transparency Act
The SBA Disaster Transparency Act (S 5357) requires the Small Business Administration (SBA) to publish disaster assistance reports online. It amends existing law to mandate that the SBA post all required reports about disaster assistance on its public website, rather than only submitting them internally. This applies to reports on loan approvals, aid distribution, and other disaster-related assistance. The bill directly affects the SBA by changing how it shares information and makes the data accessible to the public without requiring new funding or altering disaster aid programs.
