S 3026 United States Senate · 119th Congress

FALCON Act

The FALCON Act requires federal agencies, contractors, and grant recipients to comply with Inspector General (IG) requests for information or access within 60 days. Failure to comply may result in administrative discipline, such as suspension, removal, or adverse contract actions. IGs must notify Congress within 30 days of non-compliance, including details about the requester and the nature of the request. The law aims to strengthen oversight by ensuring timely cooperation with IG investigations, excluding certain sensitive requests protected by existing law.
