What’s happening with COST of Relocations Act?

H.R. 2470 remains in the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform as of March 26, 2025. The committee members must act next to hold a vote, but most bills fail because they never receive a committee hearing. This effort faces a high barrier to progress since the vast majority of introduced legislation does not advance past the committee stage.
