CAT Act
The CAT Act requires public housing agencies to publicly disclose key details about their contracts on agency websites within one year of the law's enactment. It mandates posting specific information for each contract, including the goods or services provided, vendor name, solicitation date, bids received, and the official who initiated the request. This applies directly to all public housing agencies receiving federal funding through the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The law aims to increase transparency in how public housing funds are spent by making contract details accessible to the public.
