WOSB Certification Expansion and Opportunity Act

Limits what counts toward federal contracting goals for women-owned small businesses. Only firms officially certified under SBA’s WOSB program will be counted toward governmentwide and agency WOSB goals. To ease the transition, self‑certified WOSBs that applied for certification before the change takes effect and are still waiting on a decision will temporarily be counted for goal‑tracking purposes. The SBA must issue regulations and brief congressional small‑business committees on progress. No new funding is provided.
