The President's request

The President requests $35.51 billion for FY2027, or roughly 29 percent less than FY2026. The proposal would provide no funding for several accounts, including UN peacekeeping contributions and the National Endowment for Democracy. It would also replace the $6.8 billion National Security Investment Programs account with a $5 billion flexible fund.

Comparison between FY25, FY26, and proposed FY27 levels

Hollow bars show the President's request, gold bars show the House bill, and gray bars show the enacted amounts for FY2025 and FY2026. All amounts are in millions of dollars. The chart uses Congressional Research Service totals after subtracting rescissions, which are cuts to funding that Congress approved earlier.

Policy riders and spending rules

Appropriations bills also set rules for how the State Department may use the money. The President's request and the House bill differ in several areas.

SENATE: BILL NOT YET RELEASED. A third column will appear here after the Senate publishes its text.
Account structure§7066
President's BudgetThe request would replace the $6.8 billion National Security Investment Programs account and the Democracy Fund with a $5 billion America First Opportunity Fund. The new fund would cover many of the same purposes.
HouseThe House bill would continue National Security Investment Programs at $6.89 billion and the Democracy Fund at $205 million. It would permit an America First Opportunity Fund as a cross-cut of up to $1.5 billion from four existing accounts.
Reorganizationreq §7045 · House §7063
President's BudgetProposed section 7045 would write USAID's elimination into law. It would let the Secretary transfer USAID authorities to State under a reorganization plan submitted to Congress.
HouseSection 7063 would require the Department to consult and notify Congress before using funds to reorganize bureaus, change its overseas presence, or change staffing from the levels presented to Congress.
Evaluation and evidence§7011 · §7064(b)
President's BudgetThe request would keep ForeignAssistance.gov reporting and a requirement for evaluations. It would not require a report on the multi-year strategy, feedback from people who receive assistance, or bureau certifications.
HouseThe House bill would require a report on the multi-year effectiveness strategy and feedback from people who receive assistance. It would also provide at least $15 million for impact evaluations and require each bureau to certify that it follows financial and grant-management rules.
Control of funds§7019 · §7062 · §7002
President's BudgetThe request would set fewer specific funding amounts and give the Department more authority to move money between accounts.
HouseThe House bill would make the report's funding tables legally binding and limit changes to 10 percent. It would also require program-level spending plans within 45 days and quarterly reports on money that has not yet been committed.

Notes on the numbers

How totals are calculated CRS R48956

All four columns use Congressional Research Service totals after subtracting rescissions, which are cuts to previously approved funding. Consular fees, Export-Import Bank receipts, and Treasury debt accounting can produce negative numbers.

FY2025 includes later cuts P.L. 119-28

The FY2025 column starts with the full-year continuing resolution and then subtracts the cuts in the 2025 rescissions law. The result is lower than the amount Congress first approved.

Terms used here status

Enacted means signed into law. The request is the President's proposal. The House figure comes from a bill that passed the House but is not law. No FY2027 amount is final until the President signs an appropriations act.

Security funding $4.1B+

Worldwide Security Protection increases in both FY2027 versions: $4.14 billion in the request and $4.16 billion in the House bill, with a further $1.1 billion for worldwide security upgrades under embassy security.

Loan limit not counted $22.0B

The House bill would let the Development Finance Corporation hold up to $22 billion in loan principal. This limit is the amount of lending the agency may have outstanding, not cash that Congress provides. The totals do not include it.

The account table

Indented rows show funding that is part of the account above. A dash means that the account did not exist as a separate line or received no funding in that version.
