This figure was parsed from Homeland Security's FY2027 Congressional Justification, not from a standard budget exhibit. It is approximate and it is not summable with other lines. It is published so you can check it: the citation below names the exact page it was read off. Where a dollar figure matters, verify it there before using it.

The FY2027 President's Budget requests for Operating Expenses, within Homeland Security's Federal Protective Service account.

The prior-year column is a CR annualized figure — the rate a continuing resolution funds at, not an enacted appropriation. The two are different numbers and are not interchangeable. Bases are separate columns and are never summed into one figure.

From the OMB Public Budget Database — clean, summable, and the figure to cite for an agency total. It is the whole of Homeland Security's discretionary request, not a total of the parsed lines above, and this page never adds the two together.

In the agency's own words

What this funds

2026 Civilian Pay Raise and Annualization - - - Law Enforcement: FPS law enforcement officers (LEOs) fill many roles including Inspectors, Criminal Investigators, K-9 Officers, and District and Area Commanders. The Budget annualizes the 2.8 percent 2026 pay raise for LEOs and the increase of eleven (11) full-time equivalents to support Public Order Policing, Enhanced Facility Security Initiative, and the TPD Learning and Organization Development Branch. Non-Law Enforcement: Non-law enforcement personnel provide support that sustains the mission and fill many roles including Mission Support involved with security at the St. Elizabeths campus (Reimbursable). Cost drivers include the pay raise and overtime forecast for support of Other PC&B Costs: Forecasted personnel expenses that support payments to cover separation pay or severance payments to former Federal staff. The funding may also cover payment for other benefits (e.g., retirement) to former Federal staff or to their survivors/beneficiaries. Additionally, this funding may provide payments to the former employees' health benefits and/or life insurance funding for annuitants. *Full Year CR/President's Budget rows in the table above and in the pages that follow reflect the estimated fee receipts/collections levels for the fee account. These amounts may be adjusted in each budget submission to align with the latest economic factors and fee projections.
