I introduced the United States Capitol Police Reserve Fund Act of 2026 to ensure Capitol Police officers never miss a paycheck because of a government shutdown.

Our officers protect the Capitol every day, no matter the political chaos in Washington. This commonsense, temporary reserve fund would only be used during a lapse in appropriations to cover pay and essential operations, then any unused funds are returned to the Treasury.

Public safety and national security should never be collateral damage of political gridlock. I’ll always stand with the men and women who protect us.
