To provide for a limitation on availability of funds for Department of Health and Human Services, The Administration for Children and Families, Refugee and Entrant Assistance for fiscal year 2024.
HR 2009 sets a spending limit of $1,905,201,000 for the Refugee and Entrant Assistance program under the Administration for Children and Families within the Department of Health and Human Services for fiscal year 2024. This bill directly affects federal funding for services supporting refugees and entrants arriving in the U.S., including housing, legal aid, and cultural orientation. The key provision is a hard cap on available funds, meaning no more than this specified amount can be spent on these programs during the 2024 fiscal year. It does not create new programs or alter eligibility but restricts the total funding authorized for existing refugee assistance services.
