What this amendment would do

SA 4185, submitted by Mr. Bennet and Mr. Hickenlooper, aims to add a section titled DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY FUND PRESERVATION to bill H.R. 6938.

The purpose of this amendment is to ensure that specific funds are used correctly and remain available. It focuses on amounts that meet these criteria as of September 30, 2025:

  • They are identified by a Disaster Emergency Fund Code of "Z" in the Governmentwide Treasury Account Symbol Adjusted Trial Balance System.
  • They were obligated by that date with a Federal award identification number and a unique award key.

The amendment changes the bill by requiring that these amounts be used only for:

  • The purposes associated with each amount.
  • The entity with the same recipient identifier to which the amount was made.

Additionally, it ensures these amounts stay available for obligation for the same period originally provided.
