Thank you, Chairman Rogers, and thank you to Ranking Member Meng, Ranking Member DeLauro, and to all the members of the subcommittee for your participation in this process.
From the frontlines of U.S. law enforcement and economic trade – all the way up to space exploration – the Commerce, Justice, Science Subcommittee oversees agencies consequential to our country.
The Fiscal Year 2026 bill before us today brings savings to taxpayers and protects the constitutional rights of Americans. It rights the wrongs of Biden-era politicization and overreach at the Department of Justice and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
Importantly, the bill makes critical investments to confront fentanyl and the deadly scourge of addiction that has stolen far too many lives. We robustly support local law enforcement and their work to protect our communities.
Over the last several months, our country has charted a course of recovery under President Trump.
We are tackling immigration head on by securing our borders while standing up for what is right and just. We are right-sizing Federal government agencies to ensure Washington D.C. is working on behalf of our citizens, and not against them. And in Congress, we are moving appropriations bills that meet the needs of the American people.
That is why I am proud to present the Fiscal Year 2026 CJS legislation which carries these positions forward. The bill provides a total discretionary allocation of $76.824 billion which represents a 2.8 percent decrease when compared to the total effective spending of the Fiscal Year 2025 enacted level. Importantly, the bill makes strategic investments in several agencies while appropriately reducing others.
