Update federal information technology systems to improve security and efficiency.
One policy goal, tracked across every bill that has carried it.
What’s happening with Modernizing Government Technology Reform Act?
The effort to update federal technology systems is stalled in the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform as of July 2026. The committee must take further action on H.R. 2985 before the bill can move to the House floor. While the bill received a positive vote in February 2026, most legislation fails because committees do not take action.
