ZOMBIE Act is a Senate bill awaiting final action. The latest recorded action: Received in the Senate.
Latest action on H.R. 8467: Received in the Senate.
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects federal agencies that run payment, benefit, grant, loan, or award programs. Those agencies would need to check program risks, estimate money lost, and explain their fraud controls. Treasury would write the shared rules. Inspectors general, the Office of Management and Budget, Congress, and the Pandemic Response Accountability Committee would get more oversight information. People or groups who receive federal payments could face more checks before money is paid.
Why this matters: Federal payment mistakes and fraud can waste taxpayer money, and this bill tries to focus agencies on the losses that matter most. It could help agencies spot risky programs sooner and stop bad payments before they happen. It could also add more checks that slow some payments. The real effect would depend on how Treasury writes the rules and how agencies use them.
