WOSB Certification and Opportunity Expansion Act

Would have counted only certified women-owned small businesses (WOSBs) toward federal contracting goals.

Tradeoff

Would have limited federal contracting goal counts to certified women-owned small businesses. Would have let self-certified firms with pending applications count until they were decided.
