Now that pretty much everything is said and done on this appropriations bill, according to CBO scoring, the bill is now under its section 302(b) allocation by $4 million. My amendment simply takes that $4 million and makes modest funding adjustments to two accounts: FEMA's Readiness Mitigation Response and Recovery program and the U.S. Secret Services Protection Administration and Training program. Mr. Chairman, the FEMA dollars will be used to continue work to upgrade the National Response Plan. For the Secret Service, funds will be used to support critical protective operations. This amendment has been cleared by both sides of the aisle, and I ask that it be agreed to.
