To amend the Small Business Act to eliminate certain requirements relating to the award of construction subcontracts within the county or State of performance.

HR 3485 repeals a specific requirement in the Small Business Act (section 8(a)(11)) that previously mandated small businesses receiving federal construction contracts through the 8(a) program must award subcontracts within the same county or state where the main project is performed. This change eliminates the geographic restriction on subcontracting for these federal construction contracts. The bill directly affects small businesses participating in the 8(a) program that secure federal construction work, allowing them more flexibility in selecting subcontractors nationwide. The key mechanism is the removal of this specific statutory provision from the Small Business Act.
