SA 4953, submitted by Mr. Van Hollen, aims to add a section to title III of the concurrent resolution S. Con. Res. 33.

These actions can be taken for legislation, amendments, or reports that focus on ensuring Inspector General offices have adequate resources and funding to investigate:

This is provided that the legislation does not increase the deficit between fiscal years 2026 and 2035.
