The "Fast Action for Lawful Compliance with Oversight Needs Act of 2025," or FALCON Act, amends federal law to strengthen the authority of Inspectors General. It establishes a clear requirement for federal officers, employees, agency heads, political appointees, grant recipients, and contractors of covered agencies to comply with Inspector General requests . These requests, which include demands for information, interviews, or access to documents, must be fulfilled within 60 days of receipt. Failure to comply with a covered request can lead to significant administrative discipline . This includes potential removal or suspension without pay for individuals, or adverse contract actions for entities, depending on the severity of the failure to cooperate. The authority to impose such discipline rests with the head of the covered agency for most personnel and contractors, while the President holds this discretion for agency heads. Additionally, the bill mandates a notification process for instances of non-compliance. If an Inspector General determines that an individual or entity has failed to comply, they must inform the appropriate congressional committees and the head of the agency within 30 days . This notification must detail the non-compliant party, the date of the original request, and the general subject matter of the information sought, ensuring transparency and accountability in oversight efforts.
