Johnson

• On March 26, 2026, Education Secretary McMahon announced the Department of Education will vacate its longtime headquarters at the Lyndon B. Johnson building in August 2026, relocating to 500 D St SW. • The Department of Energy will move into the Lyndon B. Johnson Building, with the administration projecting annual savings of $4.8 million in operating costs on a building that is 70% vacant. • The relocation reflects broader changes to the Department of Education under the Trump administration and represents a significant restructuring of federal agency real estate use.

• House Speaker Mike Johnson agreed with the Freedom Caucus to introduce a 60-day continuing resolution providing full DHS funding for ICE and CBP as a counter-proposal to the Senate-approved legislation. • The Freedom Caucus demanded the inclusion of voter ID requirements, border patrol funding, and resources for investigations into child sex trafficking before supporting any DHS funding measure. • The House proposal would require Senate reconsideration and further extend the Department of Homeland Security shutdown, which has persisted for more than five weeks, with leadership uncertain whether to attempt passage today.
