The Corporation for National and Community Service cannot commit or spend money under any national service law until Congress has actually appropriated enough funds. It must have the money available at the exact time it acts.

This section limits the Corporation for National and Community Service. It cannot obligate or spend money under any "national service law" -- a term defined in section 12511(15) -- unless it already has enough appropriated money on hand at that moment. The Corporation must be able to fully cover the obligation or expense the instant it takes the action; it cannot commit to spending money it does not yet have.
