Small Business Protection Act of 2016

This bill amends the federal criminal code to repeal the requirement that federal departments and agencies purchase prison-made products.

Federal Prison Industries shall be ineligible to produce any product under a contract awarded for the sale of government property to a small business concern under the Small Business Act.

No executive agency head may enter into any contract with Federal Prison Industries under which an inmate worker would have access to classified data, personal or financial information about any individual private citizen without the individual's consent, or geographic data regarding the location of:

• surface and subsurface infrastructure providing communications or water or electrical power distribution;
• pipelines for the distribution of natural gas, bulk petroleum products, or other commodities; or
• other utilities.

The Attorney General shall report to Congress on the extent of re-entry employment preparation provided to inmates by participation in Federal Prison Industries.
