FY2023 Appropriations
This week the House Appropriations Committee began marking up their 12 fiscal year 2023 (FY23) appropriations bills. They began the process before reaching a bipartisan agreement on discretionary spending levels.
Negotiations have ground to a halt due to differences over defense vs. nondefense spending and a Republican push to strip earmarks out of the bills. Republicans want large defense spending increases to keep pace with inflation, but will only support flat-funding for nondefense agencies.

The first six bills hew closely to President Biden’s FY23 budget request. House Democrats set an overall $1.6T discretionary spending cap for the FY23 bills earlier this month. That is about 9% above the FY22 spending cap. Here is how the House FY23 bills compare with FY22 enacted levels.
