The FY2027 President's Budget requests $26.8M for Public Safety & Homeland Security Bureau, within FCC's Salaries & Expenses - Commission (Bureaus & Offices) account. That is down 4.9% on the FY2026 figure of $28.1M, which is the enacted appropriation.
FY2026–FY2027
| Fiscal year | Basis | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| FY2026 | enacted | $28.1M |
| FY2027 | request | $26.8M |
Bases are separate columns and are never summed into one figure.
FCC 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 FCC's discretionary request, not a total of the parsed lines above, and this page never adds the two together.
What this funds
Oversees emergency communications, 911, network reliability, and public-safety spectrum to keep networks resilient in emergencies.
Extracted from Salaries and Expenses, p. 14. Verbatim; nothing here is paraphrased.
