Plain-English Summary

The bill would provide additional federal funding to cover the administrative costs of the Small Business Innovation Research program, which helps small companies develop new technologies and innovations. This funding would support the program's operations and management rather than going directly to small business grants. The change would affect small businesses that participate in the program and the federal agencies that oversee it.
