Appropriations act for fiscal year 2026. Pub. L. 119-103 (Sept. 2, 2026), a continuing resolution, can carry its terms into fiscal year 2027; this page does not project them.

Statutory Text

(4) Withholding.—Of the funds made available pursuant to paragraph (1)(B), $320,000,000 shall be withheld from obligation until the Secretary certifies and reports to the Committees on Appropriations that the Government of Egypt is meeting the requirements under this section in the explanatory statement described in section 4 (in the matter preceding division

A of this consolidated Act): Provided, That the Secretary may waive such requirement if the Secretary determines and reports to the Committees on Appropriations that such funds are necessary for counterterrorism, border security, or nonproliferation programs or that it is otherwise important to the national security interest of the United States to do so, including a detailed justification for the use of such waiver and the reasons why any of the requirements cannot be met: Provided further, That the report required by the previous proviso shall be submitted in unclassified form but may be accompanied by a classified annex.

How the Date Is Worked Out

  1. Enacted Feb. 3, 2026 (Pub. L. 119-75).
  2. The provision is a condition on funds or authority: the duty arises before the agency acts, so it has no calendar deadline.

Public Evidence

  • No public document located that shows delivery.

Evidence Searched

  • GovInfo Congressionally Mandated Reports collection: 1,209 packages listed; titles searched for Middle East terms; 55 State, Defense, Treasury and executive-office summaries checked for citations to Pub. L. 119-75 (0 found) (Oct. 17, 2026)
  • Federal Register API: phrase “UNRWA”: 4 document titles searched (Oct. 17, 2026)
  • MEF hand review: evidence.json, items with a link and a note on what the document shows (Oct. 17, 2026)

A status of “Reported late by GAO, committee or agency” appears only with a linked GAO, committee or agency statement. Reports sent only to committees, or in classified form, leave no public trace; their absence here is not evidence of a missed deadline.

Review

  • Machine-extracted by rule from the public law text; awaiting named human review.
