To extend the SBIR and STTR programs, and for other purposes, Sec. 3

New subparagraph (C) of subsection (y)(2) adds a reporting duty. Information on the integration of SBIR and STTR awardees in budget rollouts for research, development, testing and evaluation activities goes to the Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship and to the House Committees on Small Business and on Science, Space, and Technology. No date or interval is set.

That sentence, in plain words

Three groups in Congress must be told how award winners fit into the budget. The budget here is for research and testing.

What this is about

One group is in the Senate. Two are in the House. The law sets no date for this. It does not say how often it must happen.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
