What's in it

See official bill text

Costs less than $500,000 over 2025-2029 with no effect on direct spending, revenues, or the deficit.

The under-$500,000 figure is the modest federal cost of operating court sessions in two additional Utah cities, mainly for facilities and staffing, so it does not represent a major program.
