What changed between these versions
A small clarification and technical update. The short title of the Act was simplified, and a new paragraph was added to Section 3(a) to clarify the effect of the grants on budget suballocations. The core provisions regarding federal contributions toward the establishment of the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library remain unchanged.
Overview
A handful of small, technical changes. · v2 clarifies and technically updates the bill without altering its core policy or the substance of the federal contributions.
The primary change in v2 is the addition of a new subsection 3(a)(4), which clarifies that the grant authorization does not mandate an increase in budget suballocations under the Congressional Budget Act of 1974. Additionally, the short title of the Act has been simplified from "Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library Museum Artifacts Act" to "Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library Act". The core provisions for federal grants and artifact loans remain consistent between both versions, maintaining the bill's original intent.
Major additions
A new paragraph (4) titled "Effect" has been added, stating that nothing in the subsection requires an increase in the applicable suballocation made pursuant to section 302(b) of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 (2 U.S.C. 633(b)).
This addition provides a budgetary clarification, ensuring that the authorization of grants for the Library does not automatically necessitate an increase in specific budget allocations, which is a standard legislative practice for fiscal responsibility and budget process adherence.
Modifications
This change streamlines the official name of the legislation, removing specific mention of "Museum Artifacts" while retaining the primary focus on the Presidential Library. It does not alter the substance of the bill's provisions.
Before
The Act was cited as the "Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library Museum Artifacts Act".
After
The Act is now cited as the "Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library Act".
This is a technical update to correctly reference all applicable paragraphs within Section 3(a), ensuring the newly added paragraph (4) is included in the conditions for grant authorization. It ensures proper cross-referencing within the bill's structure.
Before
The authorization for grants was subject to paragraphs (2) and (3) of the subsection.
After
The authorization for grants is now subject to paragraphs (2) through (4) of the subsection.
