What This Bill Does
This bill permanently funds several agencies that perform agriculture research.
The bill provides specified funding for the following agencies within the Department of Agriculture:
- the Agricultural Research Service,
- the Economic Research Service,
- the National Agricultural Statistics Service, and
- the National Institute of Food and Agriculture.
The bill exempts the funding from sequestration, which is a process of automatic, usually across-the-board spending reductions under which budgetary resources are permanently cancelled to enforce specific budget policy goals.
It also exempts the budgetary effects of the funding from the Statutory Pay-As-You-Go Act of 2010 (PAYGO) and the Senate PAYGO rule.
