FY 2026 Appropriations Request

Each year, the United States Congress writes the annual federal budget, which provides the federal government with the funding it needs to operate and serve the American people. The budget funds numerous initiatives, including government operations, education, research, national defense, infrastructure, and other critical areas.

This form is for two types of requests:

Programmatic requests: Members may request specific funding levels for agencies and programs funded in the twelve appropriations bills.
Language requests: Members may request bill language or report language directing or encouraging specific actions by federal agencies.

More information on FY26 appropriations requests is available in the House Appropriations Committee FY26 guidance.

DEADLINE: Monday, April 21 at 6:00 PM (PT)

Please note: This form is NOT for Community Project Funding requests. For more information about Community Projects or to fill out a CPF request, please use the form HERE. For programmatic and language requests, if you are requesting Rep. Costa join a multi-member letter, then please be sure to identify the name of the sponsoring Member, staff point of contact, and any deadlines.
