Appropriations Watch: FY 2025

Aug 2, 2024

The appropriations process for Fiscal Year (FY) 2025 has begun, with action in both the House of Representatives and the Senate.

The Fiscal Responsibility Act (FRA) caps total base discretionary spending at $1.606 trillion for FY 2025, 1 percent above the FY 2024 caps, with base defense spending capped at $895 billion and base nondefense spending capped at $711 billion. In addition to the official caps, lawmakers will need to contend with whether to adopt "side deals" agreed to alongside the FRA in June 2023 and then revised in January 2024.

As we did last year, we'll be tracking the bills as they move from committee to the House and Senate floor and onto the President's desk.

The table below shows the status of each appropriations bill. To learn more about the appropriations process, read our Appropriations 101 paper.
