Article 1, Section 9: Powers Denied Congress

"No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law; and a regular Statement and Account of the Receipts and Expenditures of all public Money shall be published from time to time."

The loss of this paragraph effectively disbands congressional appropriations committees, allowing Congress to draw money directly from the Treasury without saying what they're using it for or providing a written account of their spending.

For instance, any individual MAGA Congressperson could just withdraw $100b dollars from the US Treasury and spend it on funding a secret police in their state and building secret concentration camps in their state and there would be no paper trail of their actions whatsoever.
