What the document says

“Because of the importance for the bankruptcy system to be self-funded, at no cost to taxpayers, Congress has closely monitored the funding needs of the bankruptcy system, including by requiring periodic reporting by the Attorney General regarding the United States Trustee System Fund.”

To amend titles 11 and 28, United States Code, to modify the compensation payable to trustees serving in cases under chapter 7 of title 11, United States Code, to extend the term of certain temporary offices of bankruptcy judges, and for other purposes, Sec. 2

The second finding. Congress states that it treats funding the bankruptcy system at no cost to taxpayers as important, and that it has watched the system's funding needs, one way being a standing requirement that the Attorney General report on the United States Trustee System Fund.

What the document actually says

“Because of the importance for the bankruptcy system to be self-funded, at no cost to taxpayers, Congress has closely monitored the funding needs of the bankruptcy system, including by requiring periodic reporting by the Attorney General regarding the United States Trustee System Fund.”

That sentence, in plain words

Congress says taxes should not pay for this system. So it keeps watch on the money. It makes an officer report on one fund.

What this is about

The fund is named in the law as a Trustee System Fund. This law does not say what it pays for. The officer who reports is the Attorney General.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
