H.R. 2452
Women's Procurement Program Equalization Act of 2013
As ordered reported by the House Committee on Small Business on March 5, 2014
SUMMARY
H.R. 2452 would broaden the range of contracts that could be awarded to small businesses
owned and controlled by women to include sole-source contracts (which are not available
to this group under current law) if certain conditions are met. The bill also would require
the Small Business Administration (SBA) to certify the ownership status of each small
business seeking to participate in programs that provide contracting preferences to
businesses owned and controlled by women.
CBO estimates that implementing H.R. 2452 would cost $30 million over the 2015-2019
period, assuming appropriation of the necessary amounts. The bill could affect direct
spending by agencies not funded through annual appropriations; therefore, pay-as-you-go
procedures apply. CBO estimates, however, that any net change in spending by those
agencies would not be significant. Enacting H.R. 2452 would not affect revenues.
H.R. 2452 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA) and would impose no costs on state, local, or
tribal governments.
ESTIMATED COST TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
The estimated budgetary effect of H.R. 2452 is shown in the following table. The costs of
this legislation fall within budget function 370 (commerce and housing credit).
