Prohibition on Funding to CECOT Act
HR 4001, the "Prohibition on Funding to CECOT Act," bans all U.S. federal funding for the CECOT prison in El Salvador and related activities. It prohibits current and future federal funds for the prison's construction, maintenance, operation, associated training/equipment, or costs of detaining individuals transported from the U.S. to El Salvador, including those held under immigration laws. The bill also requires rescinding any unspent funds previously allocated for these purposes and mandates a 90-day report detailing existing funding, contracts, and plans to reallocate or return funds. This directly affects U.S. government spending mechanisms and international aid programs involving the CECOT facility.
