What it does

The Freedom from Government Competition Act of 2025 would require federal agencies to procure all necessary goods and services from private sector sources, with limited exemptions for functions required by law, essential to national defense or homeland security, inherently governmental, or unavailable from private providers. It mandates that agencies use competitive contracting, divest federal involvement in commercial activities, or conduct public-private competitive sourcing analyses to determine the best value for taxpayers. The bill also requires the Office of Management and Budget to issue implementing regulations and submit an annual study and report to Congress evaluating exemptions and outlining a five-year schedule for transferring commercial activities to the private sector. These provisions apply to executive departments, military departments, and independent establishments as defined in Title 5 of the U.S. Code.
