FAR Council Finalizes Reporting Requirements for Executive Compensation and First-Tier Subcontract Awards
Client Alert | less than 1 min read | 07.26.12
On July 26, 2012, the FAR Council issued a final rule requiring certain contractors to report executive compensation, first-tier subcontract awards, and executive compensation information for first-tier subcontractors for public release on the USASpending website. While the final rule is very similar to the interim rule issued on July 8, 2010, there is a substantive change to the definition of first-tier subcontract, and the preamble to the final rule contains extensive commentary to guide the implementation of the rule, including discussion of the application of the public company exemption.

House Advances Bipartisan Kids' Online Safety Bill, But Senate Showdown Looms
On June 22, 2026, House Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Brett Guthrie (R-Ky.) and Ranking Member Frank Pallone (D-N.J.) announced a bipartisan agreement on a revised version of the KIDS Act (H.R. 7757), marking the most significant congressional advance on children's online safety legislation in years. The House passed H.R. 7757, as amended, on June 29, 2026, setting up a potential showdown with the Senate. The revised KIDS Act consolidates elements of 14 pending legislative proposals — including KOSA and COPPA 2.0, both of which have previously passed the Senate and cleared the House Energy and Commerce Committee — into a single, comprehensive framework. The announcement, however, was met immediately with objections from Senate sponsors and civil liberties groups, underscoring the difficult legislative road ahead.
