The House has advanced a $57.3 billion energy and water agency spending plan that slashes current-year allocations for non-defense programs by nearly 3 percent while boosting spending for the nation’s nuclear weapons programs by more than 25 percent.

HR 4553, the Fiscal Year 2026 Energy and Water Development and Related Agencies budget, was adopted on Sept. 4 in a 214–213 partisan tally with four Republicans joining all Democrats in voting against the measure.
