What the document says

“and transferred pursuant to transfer authorities provided by this division shall retain such designation.”

Making further continuing appropriations and other extensions for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2025, and for other purposes, Sec. 3

Section 1116 keeps the emergency designation attached to money that moves. An amount designated an emergency requirement under section 251(b)(2)(A)(i) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, and so designated by the President, keeps that designation when it is transferred under a transfer authority in division A.

What the document actually says

“and transferred pursuant to transfer authorities provided by this division shall retain such designation.”

That sentence, in plain words

Money marked an emergency keeps the mark when it moves.

What this is about

Money is often shifted from one account to another. The mark could be lost on the way. This says it is not.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
