To provide for a limitation on availability of funds for US Department of Agriculture, Rural Utilities Service, Distance Learning, Telemedicine, and Broadband Program for fiscal year 2024.
HR 2285 caps funding for the USDA's Rural Utilities Service Distance Learning, Telemedicine, and Broadband Program at $29.851 million for fiscal year 2024. This bill directly limits the amount of federal funds available for this specific program, which provides broadband and telemedicine infrastructure in rural areas. The key provision is a strict spending ceiling that prevents the program from exceeding this dollar amount during FY2024. It does not change program eligibility or requirements, only restricting the total funding level.
