H.R. 6500

Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2027

Ways and Means Committee · Rep. Jason Smith (R-MO)

1 September 2026  |  Agreed to other chamber's amendments (370-48)

What's next: Presidential review (±10 days)

Summary: The bill would keep federal agencies funded through December 11, 2026, at current spending levels while preventing a government shutdown, with some exceptions providing extra money for programs like nutrition assistance for women and children, disaster relief, and wildfire suppression. It would also extend various expiring authorities related to agriculture, flood insurance, cybersecurity, transportation, veterans benefits, housing, and trade preferences, while temporarily blocking a new regulation on federal financial aid and delaying changes to hemp rules.
