AI Summary
This bill aims to improve public access to information about federal funding by amending the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006. Specifically, it shortens the timeframe for reporting federal award information from 30 days after an award is made to within 3 days, ensuring that the public can access this data in near real-time.
