Congress can appropriate, each year, whatever money — from funds not already committed elsewhere — is needed to run this program and to maintain its labs or other facilities. The amount isn't fixed; it's set annually. This section only authorizes the spending; it doesn't spend the money itself.

Congress may appropriate money every year, drawn from Treasury funds that haven't already been assigned to something else, in whatever amount is needed to administer this program and to maintain the laboratories or other facilities used to carry it out.
