Evidence
Representative Mike Bost said he 'voted for a foreign operations and financial services funding bill' that 'prioritizes national security and core government responsibilities' and 'reduces spending by more than $9 billion compared to current stopgap funding.'
The House passed H.R. 7006, the Financial Services and General Government and National Security, Department of State, and Related Programs Appropriations Act, 2026, by a vote of 341 to 79. The committee said the package 'strengthens economic opportunity,' 'reinforces America’s safety and leadership at home and abroad,' and 'institute[s] accountability.'
Congress.gov describes H.R. 7006 as providing FY2026 appropriations for 'financial services, general government, national security, the administration of foreign affairs, and foreign assistance.'
The summary says the bill 'bolsters U.S. national security and border protections' by 'fully funding the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States' and enhancing Treasury's Office of Terrorism and Financial Intelligence.
Assessments
The promise is phrased as support for funding measures, not final enactment of a specific law. Evidence shows Bost publicly backed and voted for the relevant FY2026 foreign operations/financial services appropriations package, and the House passed H.R. 7006 during his current term. The bill covered the named subject areas and was presented as prioritizing national security, accountability, and reduced spending. Because the claim centers on supporting such measures and Bost demonstrably did so, this is best scored as delivered in the same term.
