To provide for a limitation on availability of funds for U.S. Department of Interior, Insular Affairs, Compact of Free Association for fiscal year 2024.
HR 2179 limits funding for the U.S. Department of the Interior's Insular Affairs program, which administers the Compact of Free Association agreements with Pacific Island nations (like Palau and the Marshall Islands), to $3,413,000 for fiscal year 2024. This bill directly affects the program's budget by capping its available funds at this specific amount. The key provision is a strict spending limit that overrides other funding authorizations for this program in FY2024. It does not create new policies or change program operations, only restricting the maximum funding level.
