It does when you sell it to the government, which is what this is about.

The federal government has rules regarding the acquisition of software products, and they have various governance and risk management requirements for various scenarios. Many of these were designed with proprietary software in mind.

The point of this bill is to update some of those requirements to make sense with the way OSS works.
