Bill overview
The American Homes First Act redirects funds intended for a specific Board of Peace designation to bolster the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP). Specifically, the bill prohibits the use of funds from the Full-Year Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2025, and the National Security Appropriations Act, 2026, for the Board of Peace. Instead, it transfers $1 billion to the Department of Health and Human Services to support LIHEAP operations, effectively increasing funding for energy assistance for low-income households.
