Statement by the President
LAND & AGRICULTURE -- Issued on: December 31, 2018
Today, I have signed into law S. 943, the
“Johnson-O’Malley Supplemental Indian Education Program
Modernization Act” (the “Act”). Section 2 of the Act
amends the Johnson-O’Malley Act of 1934, creating a new
section 7 that purports to require the Secretary of the
Interior to submit an annual report recommending
appropriate funding levels for a statutory program. My
Administration will treat this provision in a manner
consistent with Article II, section 3 of the
Constitution, which provides the President with the
discretion to recommend to the Congress only “such
Measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient.”
DONALD J. TRUMP
