WASHINGTON - Today, the House Appropriations Committee released the Fiscal Year 2024 bill for the Transportation, Housing and Urban Development, and Related Agencies Subcommittee. The bill will be considered tomorrow, July 12th at 5:00 p.m. The markup will be live-streamed and can be found on the Committee's website.
Thank you, Chairman Diaz-Balart, for presenting the Fiscal Year 2024 State and Foreign Operations appropriations bill.
As the former chair of this Subcommittee, I know the importance of these programs.
But, as I have said before, we must take a hard look at everything we oversee.
I thank the Chairman and the Members of the Subcommittee for doing just that.
This bill strikes the right balance in supporting the highest priorities, while reducing spending where we can.
Instead of funding unnecessary programs, such as climate change initiatives, the bill before us re-focuses spending on programs that strengthen our national security.
For example, the bill prioritizes resources to counter China, Russia, Iran, and other hostile countries.
Finally, the bill includes many provisions important to Members on my side of the aisle.
