It is Congress’s job to ensure those expectations are met and restore fiscal responsibility across the federal government,” said Congressman Joyce, Chairman of the House Appropriations Financial Services and General Government Subcommittee. “This bill builds upon our work in Fiscal Year 2026 to cut government spending, leverage technology, strengthen national security, and crack down on waste, fraud, abuse, and improper payments in the federal government. I want to thank all my colleagues on the committee for their hard work and Chairman Cole for his continued leadership on this issue.” House Appropriations Chairman Tom Cole said, “The FY27 FSGG bill takes a results-driven approach to federal operations – delivering a government that works smarter, faster, and more efficiently. The America First agenda is advanced at every level, with support for consumer freedom, entrepreneurship and small business, and the liberties our citizens hold dear. Economic growth and national security are reinforced by ensuring our financial systems remain strong, resilient, and protected from foreign adversaries. It reflects a recalibration of Washington’s broken status quo, replacing liberal excess of the past with purpose and conservative accountability. Chairman Joyce implemented taxpayer savings while strengthening results for the American people, and that’s the kind of leadership the nation deserves.” Fiscal Year 2027 Financial Services and General Government Appropriations Bill The Fiscal Year 2027 Financial Services and General Government (FSGG) Appropriations bill provides a total discretionary funding allocation of $25.3 billion, which cuts approximately $1 billion, or 3.8 percent, from the Fiscal Year 2026 allocation.
