Weatherization Help for Military Families: Expanded Funding

Law

Congress would extend extra funding for home energy-saving upgrades under the Weatherization Assistance Program through 2030.
The bill sets aside $2,100,000 each year from 2026 to 2030 specifically for active duty and reserve military households.
It also continues an “innovation and enhancement” pot, but caps it at no more than 6% of the program’s main yearly funding for 2026–2030.
For military families, this could mean more chances to get help with home fixes that cut heating and cooling costs, like insulation and sealing air leaks.
The bill proposes overall program funding of $350,000,000 per year for 2026–2030, plus the separate $2,100,000 military set-aside each year.
