Appropriates federal spending for military construction, veterans services, agriculture, and Congress operations for 2026.
The problem
Congress must approve annual funding for military infrastructure, veterans benefits, farm programs, and legislative branch operations to keep government functioning.
The proposal
Bill allocates federal money across military construction projects, Department of Veterans Affairs programs, Agriculture Department initiatives, and Congressional operations for fiscal year 2026.
The impact

Appropriations increase overall government spending and national debt. Contributes to long-term fiscal challenges.
Some groups may believe funds should go to different programs instead. Political disagreement exists over how to allocate money.
Large appropriations bills may include projects with questionable necessity or cost-effectiveness. Risk of waste or inefficient spending.

Individual contributions, grouped by employer · FEC

Money from people who work there, not from the company. Not tied to this bill.
Itemized individual contributions via FEC, grouped by the employer each contributor self-reported. Companies and unions cannot contribute to federal candidates from their treasuries, so these totals are money from people who work at an employer — never from the organization itself. They are campaign contributions covering a full election cycle and are not connected to this bill.
