The spending ceiling rises to $17,000,000 a year through 2030
What the document says“is amended by striking ``$5,000,000 for each of fiscal years 2019 through 2023'' and inserting ``$17,000,000 for each of fiscal years 2026 through 2030''.”
The section amends section 547(f) of the Public Health Service Act, replacing the ceiling of $5,000,000 for each of fiscal years 2019 through 2023 with $17,000,000 for each of fiscal years 2026 through 2030.
What the document actually says“is amended by striking ``$5,000,000 for each of fiscal years 2019 through 2023'' and inserting ``$17,000,000 for each of fiscal years 2026 through 2030''.”
The old top amount was $5,000,000 a year. The new top amount is $17,000,000 a year. It runs from 2026 through 2030.
That is more than three times the old ceiling. A ceiling is still not a payment. Congress must vote to hand over the money.
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.
