Washington, D.C. – Today, the House Appropriations Committee met to consider the Fiscal Year 2026 Financial Services and General Government Appropriations Act. The measure was approved by the Committee with a vote of 35 to 28.
I am pleased to bring the Fiscal Year 2026 Energy and Water bill to the floor today.
The bill provides a total of $57.3 billion to safeguard U.S. national security, strengthen our economy, and unleash American energy dominance.
The bill delivers strong support for our national defense and provides $25.3 billion for the National Nuclear Security Administration, prioritizing the continued modernization of the nuclear weapons stockpile and the U.S. Navy nuclear fleet.
The bill strengthens our nation’s energy security by advancing American leadership in deploying new nuclear technologies and supporting the Administration’s efforts to make full use of our nation’s vast fossil fuel resources. The bill will reduce reliance on foreign materials and secure the full supply chain of critical minerals.
Thank you, Chairman Joyce. And thank you to Ranking Member Hoyer, Ranking Member of the Full Committee DeLauro, and all the members of the subcommittee. Today we continue our work on the Fiscal Year 2026 Financial Services and General Government appropriations bill. This legislation impacts every American, and the good governance our constituents expect. From our economy, and the branches of the United States government, including the Executive Office of the President and Federal Judiciary – to financial agencies – the scope of this bill is vast.
