The Omnibus Appropriations Act, 2009 (H.R. 1105 , Pub. L. Tooltip Public Law (United States) 111–8 (text) (PDF) ) is an Act for the United States government that combines bills funding the operations of each of the Cabinet departments , except Defense , Homeland Security , and Veteran Affairs into a single appropriation bill . It was signed into law by President Barack Obama on March 11, 2009.[1]
House version
[ edit ]
The House of Representatives version of the bill includes $410 billion in spending.[2] This includes a 21 percent increase to a program that feeds infants and poor women, an 8 percent increase to the Section 8 voucher program, a 13 percent increase to the Agriculture Department , a 10 percent increase in Amtrak subsidies, a 10 percent increase in Congress's budget, a 12 percent increase in the Department of State budget and foreign aid, and eliminated spending for the Millennium Challenge Corporation .[2]
The watchdog group Taxpayers for Common Sense identified over 8,500 earmarks totaling $7.7 billion (1.9% of the bill's total), including $22 million for the John F. Kennedy Library , dozens of grants to assist states and counties prevent the spread of methamphetamine use, and $200,000 for the removal of tattoos from gang members.[2] [3]
The bill passed the House by a vote of 245-178 (including 16 Republicans[4] ) and the Senate 62-35 (including 8 Republicans[5] ).
Embryonic stem cell research
[ edit ]
An amendment to the bill bans federal funding of "research in which a human embryo or embryos are destroyed, discarded, or knowingly subjected to risk of injury or death." Two days prior to signing the bill, Obama had lifted a ban on federal funding of such research.[6]
