Chemical and Biological Defense Program Improvement Act of 2023
This bill amends a 1994 law to allow military departments (like the Army, Navy, and Air Force) to include funding requests for chemical and biological defense programs directly within their regular budget accounts, rather than requiring separate budget submissions. It affects how these departments manage and request funding for specific defense programs. The change streamlines the budget process but does not create new funding or alter program requirements. (Procedural change; summary based on bill text provided.)
