H.R. 4329 · 114th Congress
Transparency in Small Business Goaling Act of 2016
Key: what the circles and colors mean
Each circle is a bill. The ring fills as it moves through Congress:
Under the number: the Yea · Nay count of its final (or latest) recorded vote. On a member's page, the small badge is how that member voted: Y Yea / Aye, N Nay / No, P Present, – Not voting.
Gold and violet are only for Yea and Nay; they never mean a party. A member's party is the letter on their photo.
Never voted on. It didn't reach a floor vote before the 114th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.

Transparency in Small Business Goaling Act of 2016
This bill amends the Small Business Act to revise requirements for federal procurement contracts awarded to small businesses.
The total value of federal procurement contract awards for a fiscal year may not be determined in a manner that excludes the value of a contract based on:
- where the contract is awarded;
- where it is performed;
- whether the contract is required by federal law to be performed by an entity other than a small business;
- whether funding for the contract is made available in an appropriations Act, if the contract is subject to requirements for civilian procurement planning and solicitation or military procurement as well as the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR); or
- whether the contract is otherwise subject to the FAR.
