Law

Congress directs the Secretary of the Senate to correct the official final copy of a defense-related bill before it is finalized.
The change is a wording fix: it updates the bill’s long title to clearly describe that it funds defense and military activities for fiscal year 2026.
This does not create new programs or change how much money is spent by itself; it mainly makes sure the paperwork matches what Congress intended.
The corrected title points to funding for the Defense Department, military construction, and certain defense work tied to the Energy Department.
For most people, this won’t change daily life right away, but it helps avoid confusion or legal issues from a mislabeled bill.
