What this bill does
The GRANT Reform Act of 2026 would establish new federal reporting requirements for grants distributed by the government. It would require the Comptroller General, who leads the Government Accountability Office (GAO), to publish an annual public report identifying each federal grant, its purpose, its dollar amount, the recipient organization, and a description of the funded project. Separately, recipients of federal grants would have to submit their own reports to the Comptroller General within three months of completing a project, detailing salary costs, subcontractor payments, administrative and material costs, unspent funds, and any additional information required by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). GAO would then compile this recipient data into a separate annual report to Congress.
The bill affects federal agencies that award grants, grant recipients (such as nonprofits, contractors, universities, or state and local entities), OMB, and GAO. Recipients who fail to file the required project report would become ineligible for future federal grants until they comply. OMB would be required to issue implementing guidance and notify grant recipients of the new requirements within three months of enactment.
The bill was introduced on August 31, 2026, by Rep. Tom McClintock and referred to the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. It has not yet been voted on; further committee action would be needed before it could move to the full House.
