To prohibit the reduction, elimination, or suspension of funding for land-grant colleges and universities.

This bill establishes a prohibition against any federal official, including the Secretary of Agriculture , from unilaterally reducing, eliminating, or suspending funding allocated to land-grant colleges and universities . The primary intent is to ensure stable financial support for these educational institutions, which play a crucial role in agricultural research, extension, and teaching. Any such reduction, elimination, or suspension of funding would only be permissible if it is specifically authorized by an Act of Congress , thereby requiring legislative approval for changes to their financial support. The bill also clarifies the definition of "land-grant colleges and universities" by referring to existing federal law, ensuring consistent application of its provisions.
