HR 2115 sets a strict spending cap of $9.285 billion for fiscal year 2024 on funds designated for Independent Agencies, the General Services Administration (GSA), real property activities, and the Federal Building Fund.

HR 2196: To provide for a limitation on availability of funds for Environmental Protection Agency, Inland Oil Spill Programs for fiscal year 2024.

HR 2196 sets a spending cap of $18,209,000 for the Environmental Protection Agency's Inland Oil Spill Programs during fiscal year 2024.

The key mechanism is a statutory restriction that prevents the EPA from using more than this specific amount for these programs in FY2024.

S 1048: Ending the NARCOS Act of 2023

S 1048 designates nine specific Mexican drug cartels - including the Sinaloa Cartel, Jalisco New Generation Cartel, and Gulf Cartel - as foreign terrorist organizations under existing law (Section 219 of the Immigration and Nationality Act). This designation would enable federal authorities to use new legal tools, such as prosecuting drug traffickers who fund these groups, freezing cartel assets, and imposing penalties on financial institutions that fail to block their funds. The bill also creates an interagency task force led by the Director of National Intelligence to coordinate intelligence, strategy, and enforcement across agencies like Homeland Security and the Treasury. This directly targets the cartels’ operations and funding streams, aiming to disrupt the flow of fentanyl and other drugs into the U.S.
