An extra $28,000,000 for the protection of the Supreme Court Justices
What the document says“there is appropriated $28,000,000, for an additional amount for fiscal year 2026, to remain available until expended, for the protection of the Supreme Court Justices, including the purchase and hire of passenger motor vehicles as authorized by 31 U.S.C. 1343 and 1344, to be expended as the Chief Justice may approve.”
Section 143 of division A adds to the Supreme Court's salaries and expenses account for the protection of the Justices, including vehicles, and leaves the spending to the Chief Justice's approval.
What the document actually says“there is appropriated $28,000,000, for an additional amount for fiscal year 2026, to remain available until expended, for the protection of the Supreme Court Justices, including the purchase and hire of passenger motor vehicles as authorized by 31 U.S.C. 1343 and 1344, to be expended as the Chief Justice may approve.”
The Court gets twenty eight million dollars more to guard the Justices. The Chief Justice says how it is spent.
The money can buy cars for that work. It has no end date, so it can be spent later. It sits on top of the Court's usual money.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
