This appropriations bill funds the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) through fiscal year 2026 and ensures DHS employees are paid during funding lapses. It increases funding for border and immigration enforcement—including U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)—as well as for airport screening through the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), Coast Guard cybersecurity, and disaster response via the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Additional provisions require body cameras for immigration agents, expand local emergency preparedness and nonprofit security grants, prohibit new land border crossing fees, and strengthen oversight and protections for detainees.
