Washington, D.C. – The U.S. Senate today approved a FY19 Minibus appropriations package (H.R. 6157) that includes funding for the Department of Defense (DoD) and Labor, Health and Human, Education, Related Agencies (LHHS). Advanced by Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL), the bill also includes key measures to address harmful algal blooms and supporting mental health programs at low-income schools. Rubio also included a measure to prevent Americans’ DNA from going to Chinese and Russian labs for analysis. These are in addition to the priorities Rubio previously secured for DoD and LHHS.
“As a member of the Senate Appropriations Committee, I applaud the full Senate’s approval of these crucial provisions that I championed on behalf of Florida. With the harmful algal blooms impacting both coasts of Florida, my amendment provides funding for additional assistance to identify health impacts from the toxins,” Rubio said. “Furthermore, today’s passage includes a provision granting $10 million to increase mental health professionals at low-income schools.”
Rubio provisions included in the FY19 Minibus appropriations package (H.R. 6157):
Amendment to Promote School Safety
Amendment to Expand Mental Health Services in Schools
Amendment to Address Harmful Algal Blooms
Amendment to Prevent Americans’ DNA from going to China and Russia
