Bill overview
This bill, the Cost Openness and Spending Transparency Act (COST Act), aims to increase transparency in how taxpayer dollars are spent by the federal government. It requires federal agencies and entities receiving federal funds to clearly disclose the percentage of costs covered by federal funds, the total dollar amount of federal funds used, and the amount of non-governmental funding for projects and activities. The Office of Management and Budget will review compliance and provide a public reporting mechanism for non-compliance.
