Bill Summary
This legislation, known as the "Limitation on Availability of Funds for Related Agencies, Commission on Fine Arts, National Capital Arts and Cultural Affairs for Fiscal Year 2024," puts a cap on the amount of money that can be allocated for these agencies and departments in the year 2024. This means that no more than $2,750,000 can be appropriated or made available for these purposes, regardless of any other laws or provisions. This limitation is put in place to control spending and allocate funds more efficiently.
Possible Impacts

2. The limitation on funds could impact the Commission on Fine Arts and their ability to carry out their duties and responsibilities, potentially affecting their ability to approve and oversee public art projects and maintain the aesthetic quality of the National Capital.
3. The restriction on funds may result in cuts or reductions to programs and initiatives that support and promote the arts and cultural activities in the National Capital, potentially impacting the accessibility and diversity of these opportunities for individuals and communities.
