Latest action: Became Public Law No: 119-86.
Signed into law by the President (or passed over a veto). Now public law.
The President signed the bill into law (or Congress overrode a veto). It's now public law and federal agencies will implement it.
Provides federal funding for Homeland Security operations and other government activities through 2026.
The problem
Congress needed to approve government spending for Homeland Security and related agencies to continue operations without shutdown.
The proposal
Allocates federal money to fund Homeland Security Department and other government operations for a specific period in 2026.
The impact
Affects government workers, security operations, and agencies depending on federal funding. Determines what security services get resources.
Provides funding so Homeland Security can continue protecting the country from threats. Government workers get paid and services continue.
Allows federal agencies to operate without interruption. Avoids economic and operational problems from government closures.
Provides money for immigration enforcement and border protection. Supports security personnel and technology at borders.
Funds disaster relief and emergency management services. Ensures agencies can respond to natural disasters and crises.
Government spending increases the money the country owes. Higher debt could mean larger future problems for taxpayers.
Continuing appropriations provide less specific control over how money is spent. Congress has less chance to review individual programs.
This is a short-term funding measure, not a permanent budget. Congress will need to pass more funding bills later.
Continuing appropriations are often passed quickly without full debate. This can mean less careful review of how money gets used.

Individual contributions, grouped by employer · FEC
Where their individual donors work · 2026 cycle
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.
