Strengthening Oversight in Public Buildings Act

This bill changes federal laws on how government office buildings are tracked and managed. It requires the Office of Management and Budget Director and the General Services Administrator to give the Government Accountability Office all building data and reports collected under an existing law. Within one year, the Director must give Congress and the Comptroller General a list of all agencies that can lease office space on their own, and must make sure those agencies follow the law's requirements. The bill lets the General Services Administration keep a federal building it would otherwise have to dispose of if it is used as temporary 'swing space' during other building sales or renovations, as long as costs do not exceed savings and yearly plans are sent to Congress. It also extends a deadline in the Federal Assets Sale and Transfer Act from the end of 2026 to the end of 2028 and requires building use data to be shared with the Public Buildings Reform Board.
