The State of FY2023 Appropriations

Congress last approved a government funding package for the current fiscal year in March, before appropriators turned their focus to fiscal 2023 spending bills. House Democrats have so far drafted a dozen appropriations bills for the coming fiscal year, passing half of them on the floor in July in one bundle that combined the Agriculture, Energy-Water, Transportation-HUD, Interior-Environment, Financial Services and Military Construction-VA spending measures. Senate Democrats have only released their slate of appropriations bills, holding no markups.
