"On June 8, 2022, the U.S. House of Representatives passed a bill, referred to as H.R. 7694, “Strengthening Subcontracting for Small Businesses Act of 2022” (the Bill). The Bill seeks to amend the Small Business Act by requiring federal agencies to more broadly consider the content of subcontracting plans and subcontracting plan performance when evaluating large businesses for federal contracts. If enacted, the Bill should encourage large businesses to subcontract more work to small businesses and to achieve their small business subcontracting goals. The Bill was referred to the United States Senate for consideration. If you want to show your support for the Bill, we encourage you to complete this form by Friday, June 24th so your company can be included in a list of endorsers being gathered by the Montgomery County Chamber of Commerce. You can also contact one of your state’s U.S. Senators to express your position on the Bill." Read more from PilieroMazza PLLC.
