The Coordinator can hire temporary staff (preferring Foreign Service appointments), enter contracts, and coordinate with other federal agencies to use their funds for these efforts. The Coordinator must notify relevant congressional committees 15 days before transferring funds between agencies. The position and its authorities will expire three years after the bill becomes law.
