Congress can appropriate rising amounts for these grants each year from 2017 through 2021, from $2.5 million up to $22.5 million. States must generally split the money evenly between defense and prosecution grants, unless a special rule applies or the Attorney General allows a different split for good cause.

(a) Authorization for grants — Congress may appropriate, to carry out this chapter, (1) $2,500,000 for fiscal year 2017; (2) $7,500,000 for fiscal year 2018; (3) $12,500,000 for fiscal year 2019; (4) $17,500,000 for fiscal year 2020; and (5) $22,500,000 for fiscal year 2021. (b) Restriction on use of funds to ensure equal allocation — Each state getting a grant must split its funds evenly between the section 60301 uses (capital representation) and the section 60302 uses (capital prosecution), except as section 60305(f) requires, or when the Attorney General, for good cause and at its discretion, lets the state decide a fair allocation across those two uses.
