$2,500,000,000 is appropriated to the Secretary for the purposes of title I
What the document says“there are appropriated to the Secretary of Homeland Security for fiscal year 2026, out of any money in the Treasury not otherwise appropriated, $2,500,000,000, to remain available until September 30, 2029, for the purposes provided in this title.”
The section appropriates $2,500,000,000 to the Secretary of Homeland Security for fiscal year 2026, in addition to amounts otherwise available. The money remains available until September 30, 2029. It is for the purposes provided in title I, which are those set out in sections 101, 102 and 103.
What the document actually says“there are appropriated to the Secretary of Homeland Security for fiscal year 2026, out of any money in the Treasury not otherwise appropriated, $2,500,000,000, to remain available until September 30, 2029, for the purposes provided in this title.”
Congress sets aside $2,500,000,000 for the head of the Homeland Security Department. It may be spent up to September 30, 2029. It is for the uses named in this half of the law.
The three parts before this one each name a use for money. This part adds a sum on top and does not tie it to just one of them. It goes to the head of the whole department, not to one force.
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.
