BILL SUMMARY: Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies Fiscal Year 2024 Appropriations Bill

Press Release

“This bill protects key funding to keep America at the forefront of innovation and to keep our communities safe. “With the investments we deliver, Democrats can keep building on the historic progress we are making to connect communities everywhere in America to high-speed internet. This bill will strengthen our supply chains, and it will help us maintain our global leadership in science and innovation by protecting critical investments in research and development—from advanced manufacturing, AI, clean energy, and more. We continue to support important law enforcement agencies and initiatives to keep our families safe. Important to me, we strengthen efforts to prevent violence against women and support survivors—and, for the first time ever, provide dedicated funding for the Access to Sexual Assault Nurse Exams program I helped establish so that survivors can get the care they need. We protect critical investments to support salmon restoration and maintain our fisheries, and we rejected extreme far-right poison pill policies.”
