Makes two bills more specific about Homeland Security funding
To ensure clarity for the Department of Homeland Security, this resolution would direct the Clerk of the House to fix a specific phrase in two bills, H.R. 7147 and H.R. 7148. This change would make the language about funding or rules more clearly apply to the Department of Homeland Security. This helps ensure the laws are precise and avoid confusion.
Today, the final official versions of H.R. 7147 and H.R. 7148 would contain a general phrase "in this Act or any other act" in a specific section. If this resolution is adopted, the Clerk of the House would change this phrase in both bills. It would become "for the Department of Homeland Security in this or any prior Act," making the language more specific to the Department of Homeland Security.
