The FY2027 President's Budget requests $154.1M for Presidential Campaigns and National Special Security Events, within Homeland Security's Operations and Support account. That is up 63% on the FY2026 figure of $94.6M, which is a continuing-resolution annualized figure, not an enacted appropriation.
FY2025–FY2027
| Fiscal year | Basis | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| FY2025 | enacted | $94.6M |
| FY2026 | CR annualized | $94.6M |
| FY2027 | request | $154.1M |
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.
Homeland Security 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 Homeland Security's discretionary request, not a total of the parsed lines above, and this page never adds the two together.
What this funds

The Act places authority for the program with the Under Secretary for Management, who oversees the program within the Office of the Chief Procurement Officer (OCPO). The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) administratively established APCP within OCPO in 2008. Since inception, the program has been centrally managed and funded by OCPO in support of most DHS Components, Directorates, and Offices.
