Summary of Bill HR 2139
Bill 118 hr 2139, also known as the "Limitation on Availability of Funds for Independent Agencies, Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board, Salaries and Expenses for Fiscal Year 2024," aims to restrict the amount of funds that can be allocated to the Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board (PCLOB) for the fiscal year 2024.
The PCLOB is an independent agency within the federal government that is responsible for ensuring that privacy and civil liberties are protected in the implementation of counterterrorism measures. The bill seeks to limit the amount of money that can be used for the salaries and expenses of the PCLOB in order to control government spending.
If passed, this bill would have implications for the operations of the PCLOB and could potentially impact its ability to carry out its mandate effectively. Supporters of the bill argue that it is necessary to rein in government spending and ensure that taxpayer dollars are being used efficiently. Critics, on the other hand, may argue that limiting funds for the PCLOB could undermine its ability to fulfill its important oversight role. Overall, Bill 118 hr 2139 represents a significant proposal that could have far-reaching consequences for the PCLOB and its ability to protect privacy and civil liberties in the context of national security measures.
