H.R. 1098 · House bill · 119th Congress
This bill reauthorizes through FY2031 the Junior Duck Stamp Conservation and Design Program administered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS).
By way of background, the program is an art- and science-based curriculum that teaches wetland and waterfowl conservation to students in kindergarten through high school. The program hosts a national art competition and the winning design is featured on the junior duck stamp sold by the FWS. The revenue generated from the sale of the stamp is used to support activities for students who participate in the program.
(a) Definition of State.— Section 5 of the Junior Duck Stamp Conservation and Design Program Act of 1994 (16 U.S.C. 719b–1) is amended—
(1) by inserting “and” after “Guam,”; and
(2) by striking “, and any other territory or possession” after “Virgin Islands”.
(b) Authorization of appropriations.— Section 6 of the Junior Duck Stamp Conservation and Design Program Act of 1994 (16 U.S.C. 719c) is amended—
(1) in subsection (a), by striking “2006 through 2010” and inserting “2025 through 2031”; and
(2) by adding at the end the following:
“(c) No additional funds authorized.— Funds authorized under subsection (a) may, as provided in appropriations Acts, only come from within amounts authorized to be appropriated to the Secretary to carry out the duties of the Federal Duck Stamp Office.”.
