Bice Delivers Wins for Fifth Congressional District

January 8, 2026 Press Release Washington, D.C – Today the House voted to advance a package containing three more appropriations bills, including the Commerce, Justice, Science, (CJS); Energy and Water Development; and Interior and Environment Appropriations Act for the Fiscal Year 2026. This package continues the work of the Appropriations Committee as it seeks to get all twelve appropriations bills signed into law. Congresswoman Bice issued the following statement: “This responsible package delivers real results for Oklahoma and the American people. These bills bolster our nuclear defense systems, reinforce water infrastructure, and restore American energy dominance. It also helps fight against the scourge of fentanyl, provides funding for emergency weather services, defends the Second Amendment and supports law enforcement. These bills also eliminate wasteful Biden-era polices that have held our country back while advancing pro-growth initiatives. I was proud to support this package which delivers tangible wins for Oklahoma families and look forward to working with my colleagues to pass the rest of the appropriations bills.” Bice Provisions Which Benefit Oklahoma’s Fifth Congressional District: Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies Funding for Oklahoma Children’s Hospital Security Modernization Funding for the University of Central Oklahoma Forensic Science Institute Funding for the 911 Center and Logan County Radio Rehabilitation and Modernization project Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies Funding for the Wewoka Wastewater Treatment Facility Funding for Konawa Water Lines Funding for Piedmont Water Distribution Lines Funding for Spencer Water Lines Funding for the Bethany Wastewater Lift System Funding for the Seminole Wastewater Lift Funding the Yukon Wastewater Treatment Facility Contact: Wesley Harkins Phone: (202) 225-2132
