Read twice and referred to the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs.
Bars the FEMA Administrator from running any program that helps non‑Federal groups provide sheltering, facility improvements, or construction to relieve overcrowding in short‑term U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) holding facilities. It also rescinds specified unobligated balances that had been transferred to FEMA under two prior appropriations laws (2023 and 2024). These actions stop FEMA from funding or operating programs that would support outside groups in expanding or improving CBP short‑term holding capacity and reduces FEMA’s available unobligated balances by rescinding previously transferred amounts.
