GovInfo lists H.R. 10250, the No Preference Act, as introduced by Rep. Stephanie I. Bice on September 3, 2026, with the full title: “To amend titles 41 and 10, United States Code, to prohibit a requirement or preference for the use of union labor for Federal contracts.” The listed action is referral to the House Oversight and Government Reform and Armed Services committees.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Within the lookback window, Bice introduced legislation that directly matches the commitment, but the official status is only introduced and referred to committees, not enacted.

GSA states that Executive Order 14063, as implemented by FAR 22.5, requires agencies to use project labor agreements on large-scale federal construction projects. The acquisition letter also allows a price preference for PLAs of the lesser of 10% or $15 million.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Current official GSA guidance shows federal PLA requirements and preferences remained in effect as of June 2026, indicating the promised prohibition had not been delivered by the latest lookback refresh.

Bice introduced H.R. 10250, the No Preference Act, on September 3, 2026, which directly matches the promise to prohibit federal agencies from requiring or preferring union labor for federal contracts. However, the evidence shows the bill was only introduced and referred to committees, with no enactment. GSA guidance from June 18, 2026 also indicates federal project labor agreement requirements and preferences remained in effect. This is a serious legislative attempt, but the promised prohibition has not been delivered.
