Restore and Modernize Our National Laboratories Act of 2025

This bill authorizes $5 billion annually from 2026 to 2030 to fund repairs and modernization projects at Department of Energy national laboratories. It directs funding for critical infrastructure upgrades (like buildings, utilities, and roads), modernization of research facilities to support scientific missions, and sustainable operations. The Secretary of Energy must submit annual project lists and funding plans to Congress, with at least one-third of funds managed by the Office of Science. These changes directly affect the 17 national laboratories conducting scientific research and energy-related work.
