LIHEAP Funding Distribution
Members of Congress are urging the Trump administration to distribute Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) funds before the winter heating season. Seventeen members, primarily Democrats with some Republican support, have sent letters and introduced legislation requesting immediate fund distribution by November 1, 2026. Proposals include increasing LIHEAP funding to $7 billion and adding $1 billion in new assistance for low-income heating costs.
