Federal Circuit Refuses to Give Offeror Second Chance
Client Alert | less than 1 min read | 01.24.13
In Orion Tech., Inc. v. U.S. (Jan. 14, 2013), the agency disqualified a contractor which had failed to provide all the requested information with its offer and, when the agency reopened proposals for a second round, refused to allow the contractor to do so then. The Federal Circuit held that the contractor had standing to complain about getting kicked out, but held that the agency had reasonably done so, implicitly ruling that, once reopening, the agency did not have to let the offeror cure its deficiency.

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.
