Trump FY2026 Budget Cuts $491 Million from CISA

The Trump administration sent its FY2026 "skinny budget" to Congress, proposing roughly $491 million in cuts to CISA — about a 17 percent reduction against the agency's $3 billion baseline. OMB justified the cut by labeling CISA's misinformation and election-security work part of a "Censorship Industrial Complex." Full budget documents released in June 2025 detailed elimination of 1,083 positions.
