H.R. 266 — Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enhancement Act

Official title: An Act making appropriations for the Department of the Interior, environment, and related agencies for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2019, and for other purposes (enacted as the Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enhancement Act; Public Law 116-139)

What the tracked text contains

Of the money itself: $483.4B across 6 tracked line-items — commerce & housing credit ($383.4B, 79%) and health ($100.0B, 21%) lead. The largest single line: $321,335,000,000 for New Paycheck Protection Program money. DERIVED, NOT QUOTED: this law's section 101(a)(2) strikes $349,000,000,000 in CARES Act section 1107(a)(1) and inserts $670,335,000,000, so the money THIS law provides is the increment between two figures that are both exact strings in the enacted text — $321,335,000,000. The figure $321,335,000,000 itself appears nowhere in the text and is arithmetic, which is why its verification entry records it as derived rather than re-located. The nonpartisan CBO scored the same increment independently at $321.3 billion of budget authority and outlays in FY2020 (Table 1, 'Changes in Direct Spending Under Division A'), agreeing to the rounding. The cumulative $670,335,000,000 is NOT carried as a line-item: it is the post-amendment total of a CARES Act appropriation, and crediting this law with it would credit it with the $349,000,000,000 CARES already provided.. Beyond the cash, the text also sets $20.0B of authorizations (a ceiling on future spending), $83.7B of set-asides (already counted above) and $659.0B of loan-guarantee ceilings — disclosed beside the total, never summed into it.

The largest verified line-items. This pie breaks down the biggest spending items in the bill — appropriations and mandatory (direct) spending — by category. Every dollar is quoted from the text; click any slice to read them. It is not necessarily every dollar in the bill, and the gaps are not always small ones — where an account was left out, How this was built at the foot of this page says so and why, and a large omission can change which category ranks first. Figures that aren’t spending — authorizations, guarantee ceilings, pay-fors, and carve-outs already counted — are deliberately left out and disclosed below.

The money map

blocks sized by dollars — open one for the law’s own words

Area is dollars. Each block is one category of tracked spending in H.R. 266, sized by its share of the $483.4B this page tracks. Open a block and it lists the line-items inside it, each with the passage of the enacted text that carries the dollar figure, quoted word for word, and the section it sits in. Category names are the extraction’s own labels, printed as they come — nothing here calls a category worthwhile or wasteful. The quote is the argument.

This map divides the same tracked total the pie above divides — money the text writes as exact dollar lines. It is not the bill’s total fiscal effect: what the extraction leaves out is stated above the pie and in How this was built at the foot of this page, and the dollars deliberately kept out of the count are listed under the map.

What’s in this bill

every mechanism we could extract, at one scale

A law can move money four different ways, and only one of them is cash. This compares what H.R. 266 actually spends against what it authorizes, caps, guarantees or pays for. Every bar is a sample. Each one sums the tracked line-items in that mechanism — the largest figures that appear in the text as an exact dollar string — so a bar is a floor, not a mechanism total, and on some laws it is a small fraction of one. Each bar carries its item count and, where the items carry years, the span it covers and where those years came from.

Appropriations & direct spending$483.4B

6 tracked items

cash out the door — this is what the pie above divides up

Authorizations (a ceiling on future spending) · not spending$20.0B

1 tracked item

“There are authorized to be appropriated $X” sets a CAP on what a future appropriations bill may provide — it is permission, not money. Much of a landmark law’s headline figure is this. It is disclosed here, never summed into the pie, because the cash only exists if a later bill actually appropriates it.

Set-asides (already counted above) · not spending$83.7B

16 tracked items

A carve-out or reservation WITHIN a larger line-item already in the pie (e.g. a share of a fund reserved for a specific use). Shown for detail but NOT summed in — its dollars are part of the parent, and counting both would double-count.

Loan-guarantee ceilings · not spending$659.0B

1 tracked item

Caps on NEW loan or mortgage-backed-security guarantee commitments. No cash is spent — the government only backstops private lending — so these are excluded from the pie entirely.

These bars are not added together. Only the top bar is money leaving the Treasury. The rest are ceilings, borrowing limits, carve-outs of money already counted above, or pay-fors — summing them would count the same dollars twice and treat permission to spend as spending. How this was built says what each extraction left out.

The terms on this page, in plain English

What these things actually are — and what this bill does to each of them. Written for readers, not staffers; every figure in the “in this bill” lines appears elsewhere on this page.

Authorization (“authorized to be appropriated”)

Permission, not money. “There is authorized to be appropriated $X” sets a ceiling on what a future spending bill may provide — and if that later bill never passes, not a dollar moves. Much of a landmark law's famous headline number is this kind of permission, which is why this site never adds it to the spending total.

Loan-guarantee ceiling

The government co-signing loans, not spending money. The figure caps how much new lending the government may promise to stand behind; cash leaves the Treasury only if borrowers default. These ceilings can dwarf a bill's actual spending — which is exactly why they are shown separately and never summed into it.

Set-aside (carve-out)

A floor inside money already counted: “of the amounts above, at least $X shall go to Y.” It steers the money rather than adding to it — counting a carve-out again would double-count — so it is disclosed beside the total, never summed into it.

House	225 93%	3 1%	—	15 6%	243

The Senate recorded no individual positions. No Senate roll-call vote exists. The Senate passed H.R. 266 with an amendment (SA 1580) by VOICE VOTE on 2020-04-21; the Senate recorded no roll-call votes at all in April 2020 (vote 80 was 25-Mar-2020, vote 81 was 04-May-2020, per https://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/vote_menu_116_2.xml). Senate positions are therefore unavailable and none are included.

House roll 27 (2019-01-11, 240-179) passed the ORIGINAL H.R. 266 text (FY2019 Interior appropriations) and is NOT the enacted text. Roll 104 is the vote by which the House agreed to the Senate amendment that became the Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enhancement Act, Public Law 116-139.

“Did not vote” is not the same as “absent.” The record distinguishes Present — there, and formally declining to take a side — from Not Voting, where no vote was cast. That is usually absence, but the roll call does not say so, so this table does not either.

Did not vote (15): Brian Babin (R-TX), Daniel Webster (R-FL), Frederica S. Wilson (D-FL), Gwen Moore (D-WI), Harold Rogers (R-KY), James R. Baird (R-IN), John R. Carter (R-TX), Lloyd Doggett (D-TX), Marc A. Veasey (D-TX), Mark DeSaulnier (D-CA), Mike Kelly (R-PA), Nanette Diaz Barragán (D-CA), Roger Marshall (R-KS), Ted Lieu (D-CA), Zoe Lofgren (D-CA).

A member is recorded as not voting for many ordinary reasons — illness, a death in the family, official travel, or a paired vote arranged with a colleague on the other side. The roll call gives no reason, so neither does this page, and nothing here is counted against anyone’s grade. This site tracks a small number of major bills, so a single absence is a large share of what is shown here and a very small share of the hundreds of votes a member actually casts.

These tallies count the 243 members sitting today who have a recorded position, not the historical result. Several of these bills passed in earlier Congresses, and members who have since left are not in the roster — so the totals here are smaller than the 435 + 100 that voted at the time. Only the House held a recorded vote on this law, so every position above is from that roll call — including members who sit in the other chamber today. They are counted where they voted, not where they sit.

How this was built

Enrolled XML re-fetched from GovInfo with python3 requests and parsed from BYTES with ElementTree (xml.etree.ElementTree.fromstring(r.content)) so the XML declaration governs decoding; faithful text via itertext join = 29,618 characters. NOTE for future runs: requests reports the encoding as ISO-8859-1 for this endpoint, so decoding r.text instead of r.content mojibakes every em dash (U+2014) and en dash (U+2013) and makes 8 of these quotes falsely fail string verification. A regex sweep found 33 dollar tokens in the enrolled text; every one is reconciled below. All 23 bill-text quotes and the 1 CBO quote were re-located as exact substrings of the correctly decoded sources, each <=15 words, and every mechanism was re-derived from the operative verb and the bill's own subsection headings. 23 of 24 sampled figures were re-located as exact strings in the source text. Source: GovInfo enrolled bill text (BILLS-116hr266enr, keyless bulk BILLS); the Division A PPP direct-spending figure is from the nonpartisan CBO cost estimate for H.R. 266 as passed by the Senate on April 21, 2020 (cbo.gov/publication/56338, PDF cbo.gov/system/files/2020-04/hr266.pdf) — cbo.gov returned HTTP 403 to programmatic requests, so the identical PDF was read via the Internet Archive mirror http://web.archive.org/web/20260727094116id_/https://www.cbo.gov/system/files/2020-04/hr266.pdf. Full bill text.

Extraction notes (technical)

H.R. 266 is the ~$484 billion 'CARES 3.5' interim relief package, enacted 2020-04-24 as Public Law 116-139. It is a short law (29,618 chars of enrolled text) with only two divisions, so this extraction is complete rather than a sample: all 33 dollar tokens in the enrolled text are reconciled. Not extracted as line-items, with reasons: $349,000,000,000 (x2) is only the OLD value being struck by an amendment, not money this law provides; five further occurrences of $10,000,000,000 and two of $50,000,000,000 are bank/credit-union consolidated-asset THRESHOLDS, not dollars of funding. SOURCING: Division B is classic appropriations style ('For an additional amount for X, $Y') and is extracted from the bill text. Division A provides no '$X for Y' line at all -- it works by amending dollar figures inside the CARES Act -- so the PPP increment is taken from the nonpartisan CBO cost estimate, hence spending_source 'mixed'. MECHANISM CALLS (the point of this site): (1) The five Division B account lines are real appropriations ('The following sums are hereby appropriated') and total exactly $162,100,000,000, which matches CBO Table 2's $162.1B of discretionary budget authority to the dollar ($100.0B HHS Title I + $62.1B SBA Title II). (2) The PPP money is DIRECT SPENDING, not an appropriation in this law's own text: Sec. 101(a)(2) raises the CARES Sec. 1107(a)(1) appropriation from $349,000,000,000 to $670,335,000,000, and the amount carried is the exact increment the text yields, $321,335,000,000 ($670,335,000,000 inserted less $349,000,000,000 struck) rather than CBO's rounded $321.3 billion, and it is flagged as derived rather than re-located because that figure appears nowhere in the text; CBO's Table 1 is captioned 'Changes in Direct Spending Under Division A' and scores the increment at $321.3 billion of budget authority AND outlays in FY2020. We count only that increment. The $670,335,000,000 cumulative figure is deliberately NOT carried as a line-item: it is the post-amendment total of a CARES Act appropriation, so attributing it to this law would credit H.R. 266 with the $349,000,000,000 that belongs to the CARES Act (116hr748enr, which records that figure as its PPP loan-guarantee ceiling). Pie total = $162.1B appropriations + $321.3B direct spending = $483.4B, which is the $484B universally reported for this law. (3) The $659,000,000,000 in Sec. 101(a)(1) is a LOAN-GUARANTEE CEILING (CARES Sec. 1102(b)(1), the cap on total SBA 7(a) PPP loan commitments), not cash -- excluded from the pie, consistent with how this corpus's CARES entry treats the same provision. It is cumulative, not new. (4) The $20,000,000,000 in Sec. 101(b) is an AUTHORIZATION ceiling for Emergency EIDL grants (CARES Sec. 1110(e)(7), raised from $10B) -- permission to appropriate, not money. The bill's own subsection heading says so: 'Increased authorization for emergency EIDL grants'. The matching real appropriation is the separate $10,000,000,000 Emergency EIDL Grants line in Division B, Title II; both are listed, only the appropriation is summed. CBO itself flags this ('It also would increase the authorization for Economic Injury Disaster Loans (EIDLs) by $10 billion; that authorization is not shown in this table'). (5) DOUBLE-COUNTING GUARD: 16 of the 24 line-items are set_aside carve-outs and must never be summed. Thirteen are provisos inside the $25,000,000,000 testing appropriation (the $11B state/local floor, and inside that the $2B PHEP-formula, $4.25B case-formula and $750M tribal shares; plus transfers to CDC, NCI, NIBIB, NIH Office of the Director, BARDA, FDA, HRSA health centers, rural health clinics, and the uninsured-testing ceiling). One ($6,000,000 to the HHS Inspector General) sits inside the PHSSEF appropriations. Two ($30,000,000,000 each) are minimum shares of PPP guaranteed LENDING VOLUME reserved for mid-size and for small/community lenders; the bill text is 'the Administrator shall guarantee not less than $30,000,000,000 in loans made by', i.e. loan volume, and they sit inside the excluded $659B loan-guarantee ceiling. (CBO's prose loosely calls the pair 'at least $60 billion of the PPP subsidy'; the enrolled text controls, and either way these are disclosed, never summed.) (6) The four $1,000,000,000 provisos and the two $30,000,000,000 set-asides share dollar strings; each is disambiguated by its account/clause location per the methodology, and source_occurrences records the raw count. (7) All Division B amounts are designated emergency requirements under Sec. 251(b)(2)(A)(i) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, so they sit outside the discretionary caps. (8) There are no earmarks or Community Project Funding accounts in this law, and no committee-report layer to add.

How this lands in a state

two layers, in order: reported, shown

Pick a state and this section gives you two different things, and keeps them apart. First, what the government itself reports — obligations Treasury tags to this law, where such a tag exists. Second, the state’s own numbers — the same rows an assessment would be given, with their sources and vintages, so you can check this page against the record behind it. Every state is treated identically.

No official source breaks H.R. 266 down by state, so this page publishes no per-state dollar figure for it. No Disaster Emergency Fund Code maps to this law, so no reported obligation can be traced back to it. Without that tag there is no audit trail from an award to this bill, and any per-state figure would be modelled rather than derived.

Two of the 31 laws tracked on this site can be broken down honestly — the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and the American Rescue Plan Act — because Treasury tags their money with a Disaster Emergency Fund Code that maps to one public law and no other. Where no such code exists, a per-state figure would be modelled rather than derived, and this site does not publish modelled numbers.

The route we refuse to take, and why (technical)

USAspending's award SEARCH endpoints accept the same def_codes filter but select AWARDS, not DOLLARS: they return an award's entire obligation if any part of it touched the law's money. That route reported a single Sandia National Laboratories contract as $42.8B of IIJA money in New Mexico against a true DEFC-apportioned $64.5M, and overstated ARPA nationally by about 80%. It is not used here and must not be.

2. The assessment

nothing staged into this build

No assessments were staged into this build. This layer reads precomputed readings out of the page, and this build carries none, so there is nothing here for any state — a gap in the build rather than a fact about H.R. 266. The two sourced layers either side of it are unaffected: they are the government’s figures and the state’s own, and neither depends on a model.
