An original resolution authorizing expenditures by the Select Committee on Intelligence.

SRES 73 is a procedural resolution authorizing the Select Committee on Intelligence to spend funds from the Senate's contingent fund for its operations. It sets specific spending limits: $5.26 million for March-September 2025, $9.02 million for October 2025-September 2026, and $3.76 million for October 2026-February 2027, with small caps on consultant fees. The resolution enables the committee to hire staff, cover operational costs, and use agency resources (with approval) to carry out its duties under Senate Resolution 400. It directly affects the Select Committee on Intelligence by providing its budget authority for its ongoing investigations and oversight work. This is a routine funding authorization, not a policy change.
