Legacy IT Reduction Act of 2026

This bill would require each federal agency's Chief Information Officer to compile a list of the agency's outdated (legacy) information technology systems within 1 year. Each agency would also have to write a plan every 5 years to update, replace, retire, or dispose of those systems and send it to Congress. The Office of Management and Budget would issue guidance on how to carry out the law, and the Government Accountability Office would report on it within 3 years. National security systems are exempt, no new money is authorized, and the law would expire after 6 years.
