Keep the Heat On Act of 2025

This bill would provide federal money for the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) during a federal government shutdown. If regular yearly funding lapses at any point during fiscal year 2026, the bill would set aside the amounts needed to keep making LIHEAP payments. Payments would be made at the same rate as in the matching month of fiscal year 2025. The money would come from the U.S. Treasury without a separate yearly spending bill.
