Congress may spend up to $7,100,000 to buy land under section 460n–1. The law only allows this spending; it doesn't require it.

This section sets a spending ceiling, not a spending order. Congress is allowed to appropriate up to $7,100,000. That money can only be used to buy land or land rights under section 460n–1 of this title. The section does not require Congress to spend the money — it just permits spending up to that amount.
