      "summary": "This report describes the FY2004 appropriations for the Department of Homeland Security\r\n(DHS). \r\nIt summarizes the President\u2019s FY2004 budget request for DHS programs, as submitted to\r\nthe\r\nCongress February 3, 2003, and the congressional response to that proposal. The report includes\r\ntables that compare the President\u2019s FY2004 request to the FY2003 amounts for programs\r\nand\r\nactivities that were transferred to DHS after its establishment on January 24, 2003, nearly 4 months\r\nafter the start of FY2003. The report also includes amounts recommended for DHS programs by\r\nHouse and Senate bills, and the final amounts approved by conferees, as work on the final bill was\r\ncompleted.\r\n \r\n DHS programs include activities formerly conducted by the Federal Emergency Management\r\nAgency (FEMA) and the U.S. Customs Service, and most of the activities formerly operated by the\r\nImmigration and Naturalization Service (INS).\r\n \r\n On June 24, 2003, the House amended and passed  H.R. 2555 , the Department of\r\nHomeland Security Appropriations Act, 2004. The House bill ( H.Rept. 108-169 ) would provide\r\nDHS with $29.4 billion in discretionary appropriations for FY2004, compared to the current estimate\r\nof $28.9 billion for FY2003. The President\u2019s request was $28.4 billion.\r\n \r\n On July 24, 2003, the Senate passed its version of  H.R. 2555  ( S.Rept. 108-86 ). \r\nThe Senate bill would provide DHS with $28.5 billion in discretionary funds for DHS for FY2004.\r\n \r\n On September 23, 2003, conferees on the 2 versions of the DHS appropriations bill reported\r\nagreement ( H.Rept. 108-280 ), and the final bill cleared both Houses the following day. The\r\nPresident signed the bill as  P.L. 108-90  on October 1, 2003.\r\n \r\n The DHS bill provides total appropriations of $30.4 billion for FY2004 through 4 separate\r\ntitles: Department Management and Operations ($455 million); Security, Enforcement, and\r\nInvestigations ($19.1 billion); Preparedness and Recovery ($8.4 billion); and Research and\r\nDevelopment, Training, Assessments, and Services ($2.2 billion). Included within Title II are the\r\nmajor security functions of Customs and Border Protection ($4.9 billion); Immigration and Customs\r\nEnforcement ($3.4 billion); the Transportation Security Administration ($2.5 billion); the U.S. Coast\r\nGuard ($6.8 billion); and the U.S. Secret Service ($1.0 billion). Title II also included $330 million\r\nto fund operations of the Visitor and Immigration Status Indicator Technology project (VISIT) for\r\nFY2004. Title III provides $4.0 billion for the Office of Domestic Preparedness. \r\n   This is the final version of the Congressional Research Service report on the DHS\r\nappropriations process for FY2004.",
