This bill would require the General Services Administration (GSA) to work with federal agencies to expand the use of shared-space arrangements in buildings leased by the government. The GSA would be tasked with identifying tenant concerns, developing criteria for increased space sharing, and establishing measurable goals to track the success of these arrangements. Additionally, the GSA would be required to brief Congress on its progress within six months of the bill's enactment.

This bill primarily affects the General Services Administration (GSA), which is tasked with leading collaboration and developing criteria for shared-space arrangements. Federal agencies that serve as tenants in federally leased buildings are also affected, as they must work with the GSA to identify concerns and establish measurable objectives for space sharing. Additionally, the bill impacts federal entities that utilize special-use spaces within these leased facilities.
