Allocates federal funding for Interior Department, environmental agencies, and related programs for fiscal year 2027.
The problem
Congress must annually appropriate funds for federal agencies managing natural resources, environmental protection, and related operations to maintain government programs.
The proposal
The bill sets spending levels for the Department of the Interior, EPA, and related agencies for the 2027 fiscal year, determining how much money each gets.
The impact
Federal employees, environmental programs, Native American tribes, public lands management, and communities relying on these services are affected by funding levels.
Provides money for the EPA and environmental agencies to protect air and water quality, enforce pollution rules, and address climate issues.
Funds the National Park Service, Forest Service, and Bureau of Land Management to maintain parks, forests, and public recreation areas.
Ensures federal agencies can pay employees, conduct scientific research, and deliver services to the public and tribes.
Provides funding for conservation programs, wildlife protection, and management of federal lands and waters.
Spending increases federal deficit and national debt, which affects long-term government finances and taxpayers.
Large appropriations bills may fund programs with low effectiveness or questionable priorities without detailed review.
Broad spending bills provide less detail about how money is used compared to bills examining specific programs.

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.
