$494,000,000 for the State Homeland Security Grant Program
What the document says“$494,000,000 for the State Homeland Security Grant Program under section 2004 of the Homeland Security Act of 2002 (6 U.S.C. 605), of which $85,500,000 shall be for Operation Stonegarden and $14,250,000 shall be for Tribal Homeland Security Grants”
The first allocation from the federal assistance account. Of the $494,000,000, $85,500,000 is for Operation Stonegarden, which funds state and local law enforcement work with the border agency, and $14,250,000 is for Tribal Homeland Security Grants under section 2005 of the Homeland Security Act of 2002. A proviso requires Puerto Rico to pass its share through to local and tribal governments in fiscal year 2026.
What the document actually says“$494,000,000 for the State Homeland Security Grant Program under section 2004 of the Homeland Security Act of 2002 (6 U.S.C. 605), of which $85,500,000 shall be for Operation Stonegarden and $14,250,000 shall be for Tribal Homeland Security Grants”
States share $494,000,000 in security grants. Of that, $85,500,000 goes to border work. Tribes get $14,250,000.
The grants pay for gear, training and planning. Border work here means local police helping at the border. Puerto Rico must pass its share to towns.
