In plain words · AI-written from the official summary

Funds Treasury, courts, and federal agencies for 2026

This bill sets aside money for the federal government to spend in 2026. It covers major departments like the Treasury and the Executive Office of the President, the court system, and dozens of independent agencies that handle everything from financial regulation to elections to consumer safety. The bill also lays out rules for how these agencies can use the money Congress gives them.

How it affects you

This bill doesn't directly change what you do day-to-day, but it determines whether the agencies you interact with—like the SEC, FTC, Social Security Administration, Postal Service, and others—have the money to do their jobs. Without appropriations bills like this one, federal agencies can't operate. The bill affects federal employees, who depend on funding for their agencies to stay staffed and running.
