S. 3290: Financial Services and General Government Appropriations Act, 2026

This bill outlines the allocation of funding for federal operations and programs for the fiscal year 2026. It covers various aspects related to the financial services and general governmental functions, including the following key provisions:

Funding Allocations

The bill appropriates significant funding to support the Department of the Treasury and other governmental offices. This includes:

• Operational expenses and salaries for government employees.
• Cybersecurity measures aimed at protecting government data and systems.
• Oversight programs to ensure efficient operation and expenditure of funds.

Executive Office Funding

Within the appropriations, the bill allocates $114.3 million specifically for:

• Passenger vehicles and modernization efforts for the Executive Office of the President.
• Security improvements and management enhancements.
• Support for the Office of National Drug Control Policy.

The bill also enforces restrictions on how these funds can be used and emphasizes oversight regarding the budgetary impacts of presidential directives.

ROV Study Requirement

Additionally, the bill mandates a study focused on the rollover resistance labeling for military Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs). This study aims to explore how these labels affect the utility of military ROVs. The results from this study are to be reported to key congressional committees.

Restrictions and Prohibitions

The legislation contains several restrictions including:

• Prohibiting funding intended for the Consumer Product Safety Commission from being used to implement regulations banning gas stoves.
• Limiting expenses for training and communication regulations and imposing requirements for reporting on these expenditures.
• Prohibiting military inductions funded through this bill.

Spending Oversight

No funds from this bill may be used for regulations that have been disapproved by joint resolutions under U.S. law. Additionally, department heads must inform the Appropriations Committees if they plan to spend over $5,000 on office decor, ensuring greater oversight of such expenditures.

Transfer of Funds

The bill does empower department heads to transfer up to $16 million to the General Services Administration aimed at the Federal Citizen Services Fund. This transfer is subject to oversight from the Office of Management and Budget, and a detailed spending plan for these funds must be reported within 90 days after the bill's enactment.
