Read excerpt
The Latest on FY27. Senate appropriators continue to signal that meaningful action on FY27 spending bills is unlikely before the election. While Chair Susan Collins (R-ME) said she "would love to have an appropriations bill or two go to the Senate floor" this month, Vice Chair Patty Murray (D-WA) pointed to ongoing disagreements over topline funding levels although reiterated her goal of completing FY27 appropriations work before the next Congress is sworn in.

CR Passage. On Tuesday, the House approved the Senate-passed continuing resolution (CR) by a vote of 370-48 under suspension of the rules. President Trump signed the CR into law on Wednesday.

Clean CR Passes the House. The House shifted its focus this week from advancing FY27 appropriations bills to passing a clean continuing resolution (CR) that would extend current funding levels through December 4. With Congress unlikely to complete the full appropriations process before the September 30 deadline, House Republican leaders proposed the measure to reduce the risk of a government shutdown ahead of the midterm elections and provide greater certainty while appropriators continue negoti
