What the document says

“there is appropriated to the Director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement for fiscal year 2026, out of any money in the Treasury not otherwise appropriated, $31,075,000,000, to remain available until September 30, 2029, for the following purposes:”

To provide for reconciliation pursuant to title II of S. Con. Res. 33, Sec. 202

The section appropriates $31,075,000,000 to the Director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement for fiscal year 2026, in addition to amounts otherwise available. The money remains available until September 30, 2029. Nine numbered purposes follow. Only one of them, paragraph (9), carries an amount of its own, and that amount is a floor rather than a share.

What the document actually says

“there is appropriated to the Director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement for fiscal year 2026, out of any money in the Treasury not otherwise appropriated, $31,075,000,000, to remain available until September 30, 2029, for the following purposes:”

To provide for reconciliation pursuant to title II of S. Con. Res. 33, Sec. 202
That sentence, in plain words

Congress sets aside $31,075,000,000 for the head of ICE. It may be spent up to September 30, 2029. Nine uses for it come next.

What this is about

This is the biggest sum in the law. The law does not split it nine ways. Only one of the nine uses has a set amount, and that is a floor.

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.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
