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 II, which are those set out in sections 201 and 202, or for the purposes in paragraph (3) or (7) of section 100051 of Public Law 119-21. That earlier law is not indexed here.

That sentence, in plain words

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. It also reaches two uses named in an older law.

What this is about

This part matches the one that closes the first half of the law, and the sums are the same. It differs in one way. It also reaches two uses set out in an earlier law, which is not covered on this site.

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.

What This Page Covers, and What It Leaves Out

The one sentence the section contains: the appropriation, its amount, its recipient, how long it stays available and the two places it points to for its purposes.

Nothing in the section is left out. It runs to a single sentence.

The section points to paragraphs (3) and (7) of section 100051 of Public Law 119-21, which is not indexed here, so nothing recorded says what those two paragraphs provide for.
