Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 7744) making appropriations for the Department of Homeland Security for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026, and for other purposes.
Summary
H.Res. 1095 is a procedural resolution that enables the House of Representatives to consider H.R. 7744, which contains funding allocations for the Department of Homeland Security through September 30, 2026. This type of resolution establishes the rules and framework for debating and voting on the appropriations bill in the House chamber.
The resolution has already passed the House and now moves to the Senate for consideration. For citizens, the practical significance lies in the underlying appropriations bill it facilitates. H.R. 7744 would determine how much federal funding the Department of Homeland Security receives and how those resources are allocated across its various functions, including border security, immigration enforcement, cybersecurity, and disaster response.
If enacted, the appropriations bill would set the budget for DHS operations and programs for the 2026 fiscal year. The Senate would need to pass both this resolution and the underlying appropriations bill for them to take effect. Citizens would ultimately see the impact through DHS operations and services, though the specific funding levels and priorities would depend on what is included in H.R. 7744 itself.
