By Mr. UDALL of New Mexico:
S. 259. A bill to assure equity in contracting between the Federal
Government and small business concerns, and for other purposes; to the
Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship.
Mr. UDALL of New Mexico. Mr. President, I have reintroduced the
Assuring Contracting Equity, or ACE Act, with a correction to a
drafting error in order to ensure increases in contracting goals for
service-disabled veteran owned small businesses and qualified HUBZone
small businesses. I look forward to working with my colleagues to
address the issues facing entrepreneurs who do business with the
Federal Government and hope that we can ensure that more Federal
dollars are getting out to main street.
