Intelligence Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026

This bill authorizes appropriations for the conduct of intelligence and intelligence-related activities across the U.S. Government for fiscal year 2026. It specifically allocates funds for the Intelligence Community Management Account , with an initial sum of $642,000,000, and for the Central Intelligence Agency Retirement and Disability Fund , authorizing $514,000,000. A significant portion of the authorized amounts for intelligence activities is detailed in a classified Schedule of Authorizations , which is made available to congressional intelligence committees and the President, with strict limits on public disclosure. The bill also includes general provisions, clarifying that the authorization of appropriations does not grant authority for intelligence activities not otherwise permitted by law, and allows for increases in employee compensation and benefits as legally authorized.
