An Act prohibiting certain terms in procurement contracts entered into by Commonwealth parties.

This bill, known as the Commonwealth Party Procurement Contract Terms Act, restricts specific clauses that can be included in contracts signed by state government agencies and local authorities. It prohibits provisions that force the government to indemnify other parties, submit to binding arbitration, or agree to legal proceedings outside of Pennsylvania courts. Additionally, the law forbids contracts from being governed by foreign laws, requiring the government to pay opposing attorney fees, or charging interest beyond state limits. Any contract term that violates these rules will be automatically considered invalid, though the rest of the agreement remains in effect.
