Summary

A page of the Congressional Record, Senate, dated March 10, 2022, at page S1128, carrying amendment text submitted to H.R. 2471. One amendment, SA 4993 submitted by Mr. Johnson, is listed among the amendments to be proposed to the bill. Text on the page would require metropolitan cities, units of local government and counties to use at least 10 percent of Coronavirus Fiscal Recovery Funds to assist restaurants, and would allow school meal waivers so that States provide technical assistance and take no fiscal action for meal pattern violations due to supply chain disruptions. Another amendment concerns efforts to address corruption, governance, rule of law and media freedoms in Haiti, and the page also carries budget enforcement provisions.
