Programmatic Appropriations FY - 2026
The vast majority of federal discretionary spending qualifies as programmatic funding. Programmatic requests are requests for Congress to fund an already-authorized federal program at a specific level or to include language directing a federal agency to implement a program in a specific way. Programmatic funds can come in the form of discretionary grants, loans, or via a formula determined by statute. Stakeholders can advocate for changes in the amount of funding these programs receive or for specific bill or committee report language by submitting programmatic funding requests. Senator Klobuchar’s FY2026 programmatic funding request form is available here:
In order to submit a request, you will need to know which subcommittee has jurisdiction over your request. The full jurisdiction of each Appropriations Subcommittee is available here. You are able to make multiple appropriations requests. Please fill out a separate form for each request. If you have questions, please contact Programmatic_Appropriations@klobuchar.senate.gov.
Please submit your request(s) by Monday, April 14 at 11:59pm ET.
