Summary of Bill HR 2238

Bill 118 hr 2238, also known as the "Limitation on Availability of Funds for USDA Civil Rights Office Act," aims to restrict the amount of funds available for the US Department of Agriculture's Executive Operations, specifically the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights, for the fiscal year 2024.

The bill seeks to impose a limitation on the funds allocated to this office, which is responsible for overseeing civil rights issues within the USDA.

Overall, Bill 118 hr 2238 represents an effort to ensure responsible use of taxpayer funds within the USDA's Office of the Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights, while also sparking debate about the best way to address civil rights issues within the department.
