S 4130: COST Act

This bill requires federal agencies and recipients of taxpayer money to clearly state the percentage and dollar amount of federal funding used for any project in public communications like press releases and bid solicitations. It applies to all programs, projects, or activities supported by federal funds, with the exception of very short messages under 280 characters. The law also mandates annual compliance reviews by the Office of Management and Budget and establishes a public reporting system for anonymous complaints about noncompliance. These requirements aim to increase transparency about how taxpayer dollars are allocated across government initiatives.
