Latest Action: 03/15/2025 Became Public Law No: 119-4. This bill provides continuing FY2025 appropriations for federal agencies for the remainder of FY2025. The CR funds most programs and activities at the FY2024 levels.

The funding bill Evans supported became law and funded federal agencies, including DHS, through September 30, 2025, though mainly via a continuing resolution rather than a standalone DHS appropriations act.

The standalone FY2026 DHS funding bill Evans supported had not become law in the Congress.gov record, so annual full funding for DHS was not fully delivered despite House passage.

Assessments

delivered same_term

Evans promised to continue fighting to fully fund DHS and critical agencies. During his first House term, he served on the Homeland Security Committee, voted for H.R.1968, which became Public Law 119-4 and funded federal agencies including DHS components through FY2025, and voted for H.R.1, which became Public Law 119-21 and provided major supplemental appropriations for CBP, ICE, FLETC, and related DHS priorities. His supported standalone FY2026 DHS appropriations bill passed the House but was not enacted, so not every DHS funding vehicle was completed, but enacted same-term DHS funding and his affirmative votes are enough to credit the promise as delivered in the federal representative context.
