Veterans Affairs Opportunity for Women-Owned Small Businesses Act of 2024

This bill amends the Department of Veterans Affairs' procurement rules to ensure women-owned small businesses receive equal priority in contracting preferences. It requires the VA to treat preferences for women-owned small businesses the same as other small business preferences under federal procurement law. Specifically, it adds a new provision (Section 8(m) of the Small Business Act) to VA procurement guidelines, mandating that all such preferences be afforded "the same degree of priority." This directly affects VA contracting officers and women-owned small businesses seeking federal contracts with the VA.
