Washington, D.C. – U.S. Senator Susan Collins, Chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee, issued the following statement after the final fiscal year 2026 Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies; Energy and Water Development; and Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies funding bills were released.

 
“This is a fiscally responsible package that restrains spending while providing essential federal investments that will improve water infrastructure in our country, enhance our nation’s energy and national security, and spur scientific research necessary to maintain U.S. competitiveness,” said Senator Collins. “The package supports our law enforcement and provides funding for national weather forecasting and oceans and fisheries science to save lives and livelihoods. It provides investments in our public lands and upholds our commitments to tribal communities.”
