The set-aside percentage has slowly increased over time. It was increased in the 1992 reauthorization to 2.5%. The 2008 reauthorization set forth a plan for slow increases in the set-aside percentage, but those milestones were not met. The set-aside was 2.5% in 2011 and it increased by 0.1% points each year through 2016. In 2017 it was increased to 3.2%.
