This bill would stop FEMA from funding shelters and related services run by local governments or nonprofits that help ease crowding at Border Patrol holding sites. It would block FEMA from paying for things like shelter operations, facility upgrades, or construction tied to this purpose. It would also cancel any unspent money that had been previously transferred to FEMA for this program in the 2023 and 2024 federal budget laws.
