I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: Page 15, strike lines 6 through 12, and insert the following: (G) in paragraph (16)-- (i) in subparagraph (C)(i), by striking ``$20,000 in Department funds, unless the Deputy Attorney General'' and inserting ``$100,000 in Department funds, unless the Director or Principal Deputy Director of the Office on Violence Against Women, the Deputy Attorney General,''; and (ii) by adding at the end the following: ``(E) Ineligibility.--If the Attorney General finds that a recipient of grant funds under this Act has fraudulently misused such grant funds, after reasonable notice and opportunity for a hearing, such recipient shall not be eligible to receive grant funds under this Act for up to 5 years. A misuse of grant funds or an error that does not rise to the level of fraud is not grounds for ineligibility.''. The Acting CHAIR.
