Plain-English Summary

This bill would authorize funding and set policies for U.S. intelligence agencies like the CIA, NSA, and FBI for the fiscal year 2026, determining how much money they can spend and what activities they're allowed to conduct. The legislation affects intelligence workers, national security operations, and oversight of classified programs that protect the country from foreign threats and terrorism. Congress uses these annual authorization bills to approve intelligence budgets and establish rules for how spy agencies operate.
