Billion Dollar Boondoggle Act of 2025

Small Business and Entrepreneurship Committee, Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee · Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA)

16 September 2026  |  Passed House (voice vote)

What's next: Presidential review (±10 days)

Summary: The bill would require federal agencies to annually report to Congress on taxpayer-funded projects that are significantly over budget or behind schedule—specifically those delayed more than five years or costing at least $1 billion more than originally estimated. These reports would include details about why projects fell behind, how their scope changed, current completion dates and costs, and any bonuses paid to contractors, with the information compiled and published online by the Office of Management and Budget.
