The Environmental Protection Agency would see deep cuts in fiscal 2026 under a House Republican spending measure released Monday.
The EPA budget would see a 23% decrease from current enacted funding levels in the draft bill text from the Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies Appropriations Subcommittee.

EPA would receive $7 billion in fiscal 2026 under the House bill, $2.1 billion less than the current enacted spending level.
