Relatives of federal contractors fired for fraud would be blocked from government business.

This bill would stop certain people from getting federal contracts, grants, or loans if they are related to or live with someone whose federal contract was ended because of fraud or a criminal conviction. This aims to prevent those connected to past fraud from doing business with the government. It would affect owners of such businesses, their spouses, and anyone living with them, with exceptions for victims of domestic abuse or abandonment.

What Would Change

Today, individuals and businesses related to or living with a former federal contractor whose deal was canceled for fraud or a crime are not explicitly banned from federal programs. If this bill becomes law, these individuals and businesses would be blocked from receiving federal contracts, grants, loans, or other payments.

Key Provisions

Blocks individuals and businesses from getting federal contracts, grants, loans, or other payments if they are connected to a former federal contractor whose deal was ended due to fraud or a crime.
Defines "covered persons" to include owners of such terminated businesses, people who live with these owners, and their spouses.
Excludes spouses from this ban if they live separately and are survivors of domestic abuse or spousal abandonment by the business owner.
