fiscal year 2027 for military activities of the Department of Defense, 
for military construction, and for defense activities of the Department 
of Energy, to prescribe military personnel strengths for such fiscal 
year, and for other purposes; which was ordered to lie on the table; as 
follows:

       At the end of subtitle E of title V, add the following:

     SEC. 549F. ESTABLISHMENT OF DEDICATED FACILITIES SUSTAINMENT, 
                   RESTORATION, AND MODERNIZATION FUNDING 
                   MECHANISM FOR MILITARY SERVICE ACADEMIES.

       The Secretary of Defense shall establish a dedicated 
     Facilities Sustainment, Restoration, and Modernization (FSRM) 
     funding mechanism for military service academies in order to 
     prevent the academies from having to compete with operational 
     bases for renovation funding and other infrastructure 
     priorities.
