What this amendment would do

SA 4032, submitted by Mr. Murphy, is an amendment to bill H.R. 4016. This bill focuses on appropriations for the Department of Defense for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026, and other purposes.

The amendment aims to add two main points:

  • Protection of Department of Education Functions: It prohibits using funds from this Act or any other appropriations Act to transfer or delegate the Department of Education's statutory responsibilities to another Federal agency. It also stops the consolidation of offices within the Department of Education that were established by statute.

  • Staffing Requirements: It requires the Department of Education to maintain staffing levels, including within each of its offices, that are needed to carry out its statutory responsibilities, programs, projects, and activities in an effective and timely manner.
