What this bill would do

The "American Business for American Companies Act of 2026" aims to stop the Federal Government from giving contracts to inverted domestic corporations. It prohibits executive agencies from awarding contracts for property or services to these specific foreign entities or their subsidiaries. Additionally, it restricts joint ventures where more than 10 percent is held by such entities. The bill also requires prime contractors on large contracts to avoid giving significant subcontracts to these corporations. Exceptions may be made for national security or specific health program administration.
