SEC. 4001. AUTHORIZATION OF AMOUNTS IN FUNDING TABLES.(a) In General.—Whenever a funding table in this division specifies a dollar amount authorized for a project, program, or activity, the obligation and expenditure of the specified dollar amount for the project, program, or activity is hereby authorized, subject to the availability of appropriations. (b) Merit-based Decisions.—136 STAT. 3103 (1) In general.—A decision to commit, obligate, or expend funds with or to a specific entity on the basis of a dollar amount authorized pursuant to subsection (a) shall—(A) except as provided in paragraph (2), be based on merit-based selection procedures in accordance with the requirements of sections 2304(k) and 2374 of title 10, United States Code, or on competitive procedures; and (B) comply with other applicable provisions of law. (2) Exception.—Paragraph (1)(A) does not apply to a decision to commit, obligate, or expend funds on the basis of a dollar amount authorized pursuant to subsection (a) if the project, program, or activity involved—(A) is listed in section 4201; and (B) is identified as Community Project Funding through the inclusion of the abbreviation “CPF” immediately before the name of the project, program, or activity.

Such threats have included calling a judge a traitor with references to mass shootings and serial killings, a murder attempt on a justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, calling for an
