Official Summary

Congressional Research Service summary

Tracking Receipts to Adversarial Countries for Knowledge of Spending Act or the TRACKS Act This bill requires recipients of federal awards to collect and report data relating to subawards granted to entities located in a foreign country of concern. The Office of Management and Budget must issue guidance that establishes consistency for complying with this bill's requirements for agencies, prime award recipients, and covered subaward recipients, including establishing standards for disclosed data.

Key Points

Main provisions of the bill

Requires federal award recipients to collect and report data on subcontracts with entities in foreign 'countries of concern'
Directs the Office of Management and Budget to establish consistent standards for reporting this data
Aims to increase transparency around federal funds potentially going to adversarial foreign actors

How This Impacts Americans

Potential effects on citizens and communities

If passed, this bill would impact any organization or company that receives federal grants, contracts, or other awards. They would need to closely track and report on any subcontracts they issue to entities based in countries considered threats to the U.S. This could add administrative burden for award recipients, but supporters argue it's necessary to ensure taxpayer dollars aren't inadvertently supporting hostile foreign interests.
