To provide for a limitation on availability of funds for Department of Labor, Special Benefits for Disabled Coal Miners for fiscal year 2024.
HR 1940 sets a spending cap of $10.3 million for the Department of Labor's Special Benefits program for disabled coal miners during fiscal year 2024. This bill directly affects the program that provides financial support to coal miners who became disabled due to their work. The key provision is a strict limit on available funds, overriding other funding rules to ensure expenditures do not exceed the specified amount. The bill does not alter eligibility or benefit levels but restricts total funding for the program in FY2024.
