The "SBA Disaster Transparency Act" seeks to significantly enhance public access to information regarding the Small Business Administration's disaster assistance programs. It achieves this by amending the Small Business Disaster Response and Loan Improvements Act of 2008. Specifically, the bill requires that several key reports on small business disaster assistance, which are currently submitted to the House and Senate Committees on Small Business, must also be published on the official website of the Small Business Administration . This change applies to various subsections of the existing law, ensuring broader public availability of these critical documents. The intent is to provide greater transparency and accountability in how the SBA manages and reports on its disaster relief efforts for small businesses.
