HR 7847 United States House · 118th Congress

Parity in Engineering Act

The Parity in Engineering Act amends a federal highway law (Section 112(b)(2)(F) of Title 23) by removing Minnesota from a list of states subject to a specific engineering services requirement. It corrects a technical reference by replacing "States of West Virginia or Minnesota" with "State of West Virginia," meaning the provision now applies solely to West Virginia. This change directly affects federal highway engineering contracting processes in West Virginia and Minnesota, with Minnesota no longer covered by this specific rule. The bill makes a narrow procedural adjustment without altering broader policy or impacting other states.
