The FY2027 President's Budget requests $3.5M for Assistant Sec for Cong Relations, within Agriculture (USDA)'s Office of the Secretary account. That is up 0.0% on the FY2026 figure of $3.5M, which is the enacted appropriation.
FY2026–FY2027
| Fiscal year | Basis | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| FY2026 | enacted | $3.5M |
| FY2027 | request | $3.5M |
Bases are separate columns and are never summed into one figure.
Agriculture (USDA) discretionary budget authority
From the OMB Public Budget Database — clean, summable, and the figure to cite for an agency total. It is the whole of Agriculture (USDA)'s discretionary request, not a total of the parsed lines above, and this page never adds the two together.
What this funds
Funds the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Congressional Relations, which manages USDA's relationships with Congress and coordinates legislative and intergovernmental affairs.
Extracted from Office of the Secretary, p. 11. Verbatim; nothing here is paraphrased.
