Keith Self said he and two other House Republicans sent a letter urging leadership to prioritize legislation with spending reductions as FY2026 funding was considered. He said Congress must enact serious spending reforms in the FY2026 appropriations process.

Official statement shows Self explicitly pushing for FY2026 spending cuts and reforms before appropriations decisions were made.

The member website highlights a press release stating that Self sent a FY2027 appropriations letter to Chairman Tom Cole, describing it as a conservative blueprint across all 12 appropriations subcommittees.

This is later evidence that Self continued to use the appropriations process to push spending-cutting priorities, though it is for FY2027 rather than FY2026.

House Appropriators said the House completed action on all twelve FY2026 appropriations bills and advanced full-year funding through the process after months of hearings and markups.

The FY2026 appropriations process was actively advanced and completed in the House, but this source does not show that Self personally secured or enacted the promised reforms.

The member homepage, crawled on May 15, 2026, shows recent updates for May 14, May 13, and May 12, 2026. The newest items are bill introductions and an appropriations-request link; the page does not show any FY2026 appropriations enactment or completed spending-reform result tied to the original promise.

Recent official site activity shows Self remained active, but no official FY2026 appropriations outcome is shown on the member site in the lookback window.

On May 15, 2026, the House Appropriations Committee homepage highlighted FY27 markup activity, including consideration of the Military Construction, Veterans Affairs, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2027. The update reflects ongoing spending-cutting appropriations work, but it is for FY2027 rather than the promised FY2026 process.

The committee moved on to FY2027 appropriations work, which suggests the FY2026 promise was not newly delivered in the lookback window.
