President Donald Trump signed S. 766, the Billion Dollar Boondoggle Act of 2025, on Oct. 7. The law requires the Office of Management and Budget to issue guidance within a year directing covered agencies to submit annual information on projects more than five years behind schedule or at least $1 billion over the original cost estimate. OMB must compile the submissions into an annual report to Congress and post it online.
