HR 4832 United States House · 118th Congress

Indian Programs Advance Appropriations Act of 2023

HR 4832, the Indian Programs Advance Appropriations Act of 2023, changes how funding is allocated for key Native American programs. It requires that starting in fiscal year 2024, new budget authority for specific accounts under the Bureau of Indian Affairs, Bureau of Indian Education, and Indian Health Service must be made available immediately for the current fiscal year *and* include advance funding for the next fiscal year. The bill mandates annual reports by July 31 each year, including workload estimates and resource sufficiency assessments developed with tribal consultation. This affects tribal programs funded through accounts like Operation of Indian Programs, Contract Support Costs, and Indian Health Services, aiming to improve budget planning predictability.
