HR 1941 United States House · 118th Congress

To provide for a limitation on availability of funds for Department of Labor, Administrative Expenses, Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Fund for fiscal year 2024.

HR 1941 sets a spending limit of $59,098,000 for the Department of Labor's administrative expenses and the Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Fund during fiscal year 2024. This bill directly affects the funding available for administering the Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Fund, which provides benefits to workers who developed illnesses from radiation or toxic exposure during nuclear energy work. The key provision is a strict cap on annual funding for these specific administrative costs, preventing the use of additional funds beyond the set amount. This is a budgetary limitation, not a change to the compensation program's eligibility or benefit levels.
