OMB Reaches For Congress’s Purse Strings But December Is Coming (opens the original)
Read excerpt
While the government funding deadline isn’t until December, last week proved that the power of the purse remains very much the topic of the day. As readers of the Approps Drop know, the continuing resolution (CR) signed into law on September 2, funds the federal government through December 11. It also temporarily blocks implementation of the Office of Management and Budget’s (OMB) proposed changes to the Uniform Guidance governing federal grants. But OMB has chosen to test the limits of this blo

Read excerpt
If this week's House Appropriations hearings seem like a wonky September oversight lineup, look closer. Between the Economy Act, a review of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), and a hearing on trade and investment agencies, House appropriators seem to be focusing on a much broader question: how much control is Congress ceding to the executive branch and what can be done to reclaim it?

Read excerpt
With the House officially out for the August recess, the appropriations spotlight has shifted entirely to the Senate. House Republicans departed Washington after passing a relatively clean continuing resolution (CR) through December 4 while Senate appropriators responded with a bipartisan proposal including several anomalies not included in the House CR, most notable Section 157, which would prevent the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) from implementing its controversial revisions to the Un
Planes, Trains, And Continuing Resolutions (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Senate enters its final two weeks before the August recess facing a familiar appropriations paradox: September 30 is too close to realistically complete all twelve appropriations bills, yet Congress must generate enough legislative momentum to avoid governing entirely through crisis management. Last week, the House began August recess in July after passing its version of the FY2027 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), a continuing resolution (CR), and a budget resolution intended to ki
