An original resolution authorizing expenditures by the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs.

SRES 43 is a procedural resolution authorizing the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs to spend specific amounts from the Senate's contingent fund during three time periods: $7.7 million (March 1, 2023 - September 30, 2023), $13.2 million (October 1, 2023 - September 30, 2024), and $5.5 million (October 1, 2024 - February 28, 2025). The resolution limits consultant spending to $400,000 and staff training to $20,000 per period, and specifies how expenses will be paid from the Senate's contingent fund. This resolution does not change policy but provides the committee with budgetary authority to conduct oversight work as permitted by Senate rules.
