would cut funding for the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency by $250 million.<\/p>\n<p>Republicans said the bill provides $2.4 billion for CISA, and that among its focuses are \u201cimproving cybersecurity resilience,\u201d in the words of House Appropriations Chairman Tom Cole, R-Okla.<\/p>\n<p>But Democrats decried it as a funding reduction. The panel\u2019s subcommittee on homeland security is set to vote on the bill Friday.<\/p>\n<p>The fiscal 2027 funding measure \u201cdramatically cuts funding for cybersecurity and infrastructure protection despite an increasing number of sophisticated attacks from foreign adversaries against U.S. businesses, health care systems, utilities, schools, and state and local governments,\u201d Democrats said in a <a href=\"https:\/\/democrats-appropriations.house.gov\/sites\/evo-subsites\/democrats-appropriations.house.gov\/files\/evo-media-document\/homeland-security-fy27-fact-sheet.pdf\">fact sheet<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>They also said it limits DHS\u2019s ability to counter foreign propaganda seeking to undermine U.S. democracy, and to protect states against foreign groups during the elections.<\/p>\n<p>The second Trump administration has sought deep cuts in CISA\u2019s personnel numbers and budget in both fiscal 2026 and <a href=\"https:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/trump-budget-proposal-would-cut-hundreds-of-millions-more-from-cisa\/\">2027<\/a>, drawing concerns from <a href=\"https:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/dhs-secretary-markwayne-mullin-pinpoints-optimal-cisa-staffing-levels\/\">both sides of the aisle<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Congress last year sought to implement some, but not all, of Trump\u2019s proposed cuts for the agency, <a href=\"https:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/congressional-appropriators-move-to-extend-information-sharing-law-fund-cisa\/\">advancing legislation<\/a> to set its budget at $2.6 billion.<\/p>\n<p>In their fact sheet, Republicans said they were reallocating $100 million from past appropriations to fund CISA\u2019s core missions.<\/p>\n<p>They acknowledged some cutbacks, saying that the bill \u201cIncludes strategic reductions to redundant, unauthorized, or duplicative contracts, positions, and programs.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Despite the cutbacks at CISA over the last year and a half, officials have talked about wanting to hire additional personnel. The fiscal 2027 bill includes \u201c$31 million to hire mission critical positions to counter threats from foreign adversaries, such as China,\u201d according to the GOP.<\/p>\n<p>The GOP also highlighted other cyber funds in the DHS bill. DHS\u2019s management director would get $11.3 million for \u201cenhanced cybersecurity protections,\u201d while the Homeland Security Investigations division of Immigration and Customs Enforcement would get $5 million for the Cyber Crime Center.<\/p>\n<p>Neither panel Republicans nor Democrats responded to requests for comment seeking more detailed numbers for the fiscal 2027 bill.<\/p>\n<p><\/body> <\/p>\n<footer class=\"single-article__footer\">\n<div class=\"author-card\" readability=\"7.7216117216117\">\n<div class=\"author-card__avatar\">\n<figure class=\"author-card__image-wrap\"> <img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"author-card__image\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ddi.mohflo.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/hill-dems-hammer-gop-for-250m-cisa-budget-cut-1.jpg?w=640&ssl=1\" alt=\"Tim Starks\"> <\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"author-card__details\" readability=\"10.901098901099\">\n<h4 class=\"author-card__name\">Written by Tim Starks<\/h4>\n<p> Tim Starks is senior reporter at CyberScoop.
