Referred to the House Committee on House Administration.
This resolution sets the spending limit for the House Select Committee on the Strategic Competition Between the United States and the Chinese Communist Party for the 119th Congress. It specifies a total amount, divides that total into two yearly limits, authorizes payments on vouchers signed by the committee chair, and requires that expenditures follow rules from the Committee on House Administration. It is an internal House measure to fund committee operations and does not create law outside the House.
This is a House-only simple resolution; it does not go to the Senate or the President and is not binding law outside the House. It is adopted by the House (typically by majority vote) to govern House committee funding and procedures.
This resolution authorizes up to $10,740,218 from House committee accounts to fund the Select Committee on the Strategic Competition Between the United States and the Chinese Communist Party for the 119th Congress.
Funding is split roughly equally between the first and second years of the Congress ($5,366,830 and $5,373,388).
Payments require vouchers signed by the Select Committee Chairman and approval under Committee on House Administration rules.
As a House internal resolution it is likely to be adopted in the House but is not a law and will not become statute; formal ‘becoming law’ is therefore highly unlikely.
Relative to its intended legislative type, this bill is a straightforward operational funding resolution that clearly assigns dollar amounts and time-limited availability for a named House Select Committee and establishes basic payment and regulatory controls.
