To provide for a limitation on availability of funds for Senate, Agency Contributions and Related Expenses for fiscal year 2024.
HR 1859 sets a strict annual spending cap of $59,912,000 for U.S. Senate operations and contributions to federal agencies during fiscal year 2024. This bill directly limits the budget authority available to the Senate for its own expenses and funding provided to other agencies. The key provision is a fixed maximum amount that must be adhered to, with no flexibility for exceeding this threshold. As a procedural budget measure, it does not change substantive policies or create new programs.
