In Committee

Summary

Creates program-specific sub-accounts for non-Federal contributions to conservation programs. It would replace the prior public-private partnership framework and let the Secretary set a sub-account for each conservation program under subtitle D to accept and track donations.

Show full summary
  • Conservation programs under subtitle D would get dedicated sub-accounts so contributions are deposited and tracked for the specific program they support.
  • Non-Federal contributors could give directly to a named program sub-account rather than to a general partnership account, clarifying where donated funds go.
  • The Secretary would have explicit authority to establish and deposit contributions into these per-program sub-accounts and the bill removes the existing paragraphs (3)–(10) that framed the prior partnership model.

*This change would not create new federal funding or appropriations.*

New conservation accounts remove partnership rules

This bill would let the Agriculture Secretary create a separate sub-account for each conservation program under subtitle D to take non-Federal money. Contributions for a program would be deposited into that program's sub-account. The bill would also repeal existing statutory paragraphs that set rules for public-private partnerships in that subsection. If enacted, this could change how private donors, partners, and program managers give and track money, but it would not itself add federal funding.
