Ms. DeLauro, from the Committee on Appropriations, submitted the
following
A N N U A L
R E P O R T
The Committee on Appropriations is the principal arm
through which the House of Representatives exercises its
constitutional responsibility to provide funds for the
operations of the various activities of the Federal Government.
clause 1(b) of rule X of the House provides that the committee
shall have jurisdiction over the ``Appropriation of the revenue
for the support of the Government.'' This responsibility has
basically been vested in the committee since 1865.
The committee has been established by the House with a
membership of 59 during the 117th Congress. With relatively few
exceptions, the responsibilities of the committee are carried
out through its 12 subcommittees which in turn report to the
full committee. The subcommittees are organized essentially on
a functional basis with recognition of the existing structure
of the Departments and agencies within the executive branch.
(The jurisdictional assignments of subcommittees during the
117th Congress are displayed in Appendix C).

SUMMARY OF APPROPRIATIONS ACTIONS
117th Congress
The House Committee on Appropriations implemented an
ambitious agenda during the 117th Congress focused on
responding to emergent needs, delivering results for
communities, and strong oversight. The Committee's first action
of the 117th Congress was to hold a bi-partisan briefing on
January 26, 2021, to review the Capitol Complex Security
Failures on January 6. The Committee then formally organized on
February 4, 2021, in a meeting presided over by Chair Rosa L.
DeLauro.
On February 26, 2021, Chair DeLauro announced that the
Committee would accept Member requests for Community Project
Funding [otherwise known as ``earmarks'' in House rules] in
appropriations bills during the fiscal year 2022 process. This
was one of several efforts the Committee employed to restore
the power of the purse and demonstrate that Congress can
deliver for communities. Congress last considered earmarks in
appropriations bills in 2010, and the new process included a
number of a key reforms for transparency and accountability.
On May 14, 2021, the Committee introduced the Emergency
Security Supplemental to Respond to January 6th Appropriations
Act, 2021 (H.R. 3237), which included $1.9 billion to respond
to the January 6th attack on the Capitol Complex. The House
considered and passed H.R. 3237 on May 20, 2021, by a vote of
213-212. The text was amended in the Senate, returned to the
House, and passed under suspension on July 29, 2021.
In the intervening days, the Committee initiated its markup
process on June 24, 2021, starting with subcommittee markup of
the Financial Services and General Government bill. The
following week the full committee reported both the Legislative
Branch bill and the Financial Services and General Government
bill to the full House on July 1, 2021. Within four weeks, the
Committee reported out all twelve appropriations bills with the
last bills filed in the House on July 20, 2021.
Seven bills were packaged together for Floor consideration
as H.R. 4502. Those were: Labor, Health and Human Services,
Education, and Related Agencies; Agriculture, Rural
Development, Food and Drug Administration, and Related
Agencies; Energy and Water Development, and Related Agencies;
Financial Services and General Government; Interior,
Environment, and Related Agencies; Military Construction,
Veterans Affairs, and Related Agencies; and Transportation, and
Housing and Urban Development, and Related Agencies. The
package was debated on the Floor on July 27, 2021 and passed on
July 29th by a vote of 219-209. The House considered the State
and Foreign Operations bill on July 28th, which passed the
House 217-212. The House also considered the Legislative Branch
appropriations bill on July 28th, which cleared the House by a
vote of 215-207.
On September 21, 2021, the Committee introduced a
continuing appropriations Act, H.R. 5305, to maintain
government funding through December 3, 2021, along with
emergency funding for disaster assistance and supplemental
appropriations for Afghanistan-related needs. H.R. 5305 passed
the House 220-211, was amended in the Senate, and on September
30, 2021, the House passed the revised version of H.R. 5305. It
was signed into law on the same day (P.L. 117-43). In the
interim, the Committee also introduced the Iron Dome
Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2022 (H.R. 5323), which the
House passed 420-9 on September 23rd but received no further
action in the Senate.
On November 5, 2021, the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs
Appropriations Act was considered on the Floor as part of the
larger Infrastructure Investments and Jobs Act (H.R. 3684), one
of the largest investments in infrastructure in history. H.R.
3684 was signed into law on November 15, 2021 (P.L. 117-58).
A second continuing appropriations Act along with
supplemental appropriations for Afghanistan (H.R. 6119) was
passed by the House on December 2, 2021, and extended
government funding until February 18, 2022. It was signed into
law on December 3, 2021 (P.L. 117-70). This completed action on
the committee's activity during the first session.
During the second session, the Committee's work followed a
similarly ambitious agenda. A third continuing resolution (H.R.
6617) passed the House on February 8, 2022 and was signed into
law on February 18, 2022 (P.L. 117-86), to extend funding
through March 11, 2022, as well as provide assistance to
Ukraine and respond to the Joint Base Pearl Harbor Drinking
Water Emergency. A fourth continuing resolution (H.J. Res. 75)
passed the House on March 9, 2022, by a voice vote and was
enacted into law on March 11, 2022, (P.L. 117-95) extending
funding through March 15, 2022.
Final action on the fiscal year 2022 appropriations bills
occurred in March 2022, with enactment of the Consolidated
Appropriations Act, 2022 (H.R. 2471). The House passed H.R.
2471 on March 9, 2022; the vote was considered as a divided
question with Commerce, Justice, Science; Defense; Homeland
Security; and certain other supplemental appropriations passing
by a vote of 361 Yeas to 69 Nays. The second vote, on the
contents of the rest of the package was 260-171. The next day,
the Senate approved the bill 68-31. The President signed the
bill into law on March 15, 2021, (P.L. 117-103) and the
appropriations-related contents of Public Law 117-103 are as
follows:
Division A--Agriculture, Rural Development, Food

The Committee held a number of Defense-related oversight
hearings in the month of March, and with the release of the
President's budget on March 28, 2022, the Committee turned its
attention to fiscal year 2023 appropriations process, and
associated budget hearings.
On May 17, 2022, the Committee introduced the Infant
Formula Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2022 (H.R. 7790), to
provide emergency supplemental appropriations in response to
the infant formula crisis. The House passed H.R. 7790 the next
day by a vote of 231-192.
The Committee developed an aggressive schedule to hold all
subcommittee and Full Committee markups during June 2022. All
markups were conducted in a hybrid setting with several Members
participating remotely. Within a span of sixteen days, the
Committee completed work on all 12 appropriations bills,
beginning with the Subcommittee markup of the Defense
appropriations bill on June 15, 2022, and ending with the Full
Committee reporting the last two bills (Transportation, Housing
and Urban Development, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act,
2022, and Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education, and
Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2022) on June 30, 2022.
The Committee brought six bills to the Floor in a
consolidated package (H.R. 8294) on July 19, 2022, which was
debated over two days and passed the House on July 20, 2022, by
a vote of 220-207. The six bills in the package were:
Transportation-HUD, Agriculture, Energy and Water, Financial
Services, Interior, and Military Construction-Veterans Affairs.
On July 28, 2022, the Supreme Court Security Funding Act of
2022 to provide emergency supplemental appropriations to
support protection for members of the Judiciary was considered
alongside the CHIPS Act of 2022 and Research and Development,
Competition, and Innovation Act (H.R. 4346). That bill was
signed into law on August 9, 2022 (P.L. 117-167).
On September 30, 2022, the House passed H.R. 6833 which
provided continuing appropriations through December 16, 2022,
and supplemental appropriations for assistance to Ukraine and
for other matters. It was signed into law later that day (P.L.
117-180).
On December 13, 2022, the Committee released a second
continuing appropriations bill to extend appropriations by one
week through December 23, 2022. The bill passed the House on
December 14, by a vote of 204-201.
To close out fiscal year 2023, the Committee consolidated
the 12 appropriations bills into one final Omnibus package to
be considered as an amendment between the House and Senate
(H.R. 2617). This package also contained additional
supplemental appropriations for Ukraine assistance in a
separate division (division M) and disaster relief (division
N). The Senate cleared the package with amendments on December
22, 2022 by a vote of 68-29. The House passed H.R. 2617 on
December 23, 2022 by a tally of 225-201-1 (present). It was
signed into law on December 29, 2022 (P.L. 117-XXX). In
addition, the House adopted a special rule which included a 7-
day continuing resolution (H.R. 4373) to allow government
operations to be maintained while H.R. 2617 was processed and
sent to the President for signature.
The contents of H.R. 2617 related to appropriations are as
follows:
Division A--Agriculture, Rural Development, Food
and Drug Administration, and Related Agencies Appropriations

During consideration of appropriations bills during the
117th Congress, the Committee continued to place a high
priority on having a Member-driven process through ``regular
order,'' so that Members of the House could participate in an
open, transparent, and fair appropriations process. All Members
of the House were invited to submit their priorities to every
subcommittee before bills were drafted. Bills were considered
in open subcommittee and committee markups, with information on
those bills publicly available before markups. Every effort was
made to ensure that any Member of the House who had an
amendment that complied with House Rules would have the
opportunity to have that amendment considered on the House
floor. This commitment to providing opportunities for all
Members to contribute to the legislative process helped to
ensure support for the bills throughout each appropriations
cycle.
The Committee placed a high priority on conducting detailed
reviews of agency budgets and exercising comprehensive
oversight on the programs under its jurisdiction. Therefore, an
aggressive schedule of budget and oversight hearings was
developed for the 117th Congress. The Committee conducted 116
hearings, receiving testimony from 894 witnesses during the
first session, and conducted 89 hearings with 221 witnesses
during the second session. These hearings informed and guided
the Committee in the development of the fiscal year 2022 and
fiscal year 2023 appropriations bills.
In total, 24 regular appropriations bills were enacted in
the 117th Congress (12 for FY2022 and 12 for FY2023), in
addition to 11 supplementals and 7 continuing resolutions.
The charts and tables following this summary display the
history of fiscal year 2022 and fiscal year 2023
appropriations, as well as budget comparisons for the fiscal
year 2022 and fiscal year 2023 funding levels.

Amounts reflects estimates from the Congressional Budget Office at the time the legislation was considered.
\1\ Amounts include funding for disasters, emergencies, program integrity, and wildfire suppression that was designated as such pursuant to a concurrent
resolution on the budget for fiscal year 2023 or prior fiscal years.
\2\ Unless otherwise noted, advance appropriations first becoming available for fiscal year 2022 that were enacted within a subcommittee's jurisdiction
in a previous fiscal year are shown in the totals for the corresponding annual appropriations Act for fiscal year 2023 in this table. In addition,
division J of P.L. 117-58 and division B of P.L. 117-159 provided supplemental advance appropriations for each of fiscal years 2022 through 2026 that
were designated as being for an emergency requirement.
\3\ Amounts do not include $50 million for Agriculture and $1,085 million for Labor, HHS, Education, provided for the purposes authorized by the 21st
Century Cures Act (P.L. 114-255). Such amounts do not count for the purposes of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, the Balanced Budget and
Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 (BBEDCA), or the concurrent resolution on the budget.
\4\ Amounts do not include certain funding requested or provided from activities related to the Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund or section 2106(c) of the
Water Resources Reform and Development Act of 2014 (P.L. 113-121). Pursuant to section 14003 of the CARES Act (P.L. 116-136), such amounts do not

\7\ Sections 121, 125, 131, and 146 of the Continuing Appropriations Act, 2023 provided $4,923 million in full year appropriations that were designated
as emergency requirements pursuant to the concurrent resolution on the budget.
\8\ In fiscal year 2023, the Committee provided $3,052 million for program integrity initiatives at the Departments of Labor and Health and Human
Services. Without a concurrent resolution on the budget in place, budget enforcement differed between the House and the Senate with respect to which
amounts for program integrity initiatives counted as regular amounts, and which counted as program integrity amounts. This table reflects the final
bill agreement to provide $707 million in regular amounts and $2,345 million in additional program integrity amounts, even though for the purposes of
budget enforcement in the House, $728 million was charged as regular amounts and $2,324 million as program integrity amounts.

INVESTIGATIONS CONDUCTED BY THE COMMITTEE
(117th Congress)
The Appropriations Committee is dedicated to strong and
active oversight of Departmental programs and activities and
undertakes investigations as a routine part of the
appropriations process. In addition, the Committee uses its own
Survey and Investigations (S&I) group to pursue program issues
in depth, including those specific to an agency or Department
and those that are crosscutting and have government-wide
impacts. As of the end of 117th Congress, S&I investigative
staff have completed or have under active review four separate
studies or investigations.
The various subcommittees, in letters signed by the
Chairman and Ranking Minority Member (known as ``directives''),
originate requests for investigations; the request letters must
be approved and signed by the Chairman and Ranking Minority
Member of the full committee before an investigation is
pursued.
When the Committee directs S&I to conduct an investigation,
the Director assembles a team of expert investigators.
Competence and objectivity are the criteria for selection of
individual investigators. Investigative teams include a mix of
permanent staff, independent contractors, and personnel on
detail from federal agencies.
Directives generally call for investigations to be
completed within three to six months, although occasionally
studies are of longer duration. Some probes include interim
memos and briefings to subcommittee staff in addition to a
final report. The timing, format, and frequency of reports are
tailored to the needs of the subcommittees.
A catalog of all the investigations conducted from January
2021 through December 2022, listed by the requesting
subcommittee, follows.
STUDIES COMPLETED, STARTED OR REMAINING ACTIVE BY THE SURVEYS AND
INVESTIGATIONS STAFF, COMMITTEE ON APPROPRIATIONS, SECOND SESSION,

With respect to the above listing, it should be noted that
since studies originate with the subcommittees, any information
developed during the course of an investigation is reported to
the subcommittee which requested such study or examination as
well as the Chairman and Ranking Minority Member of the Full
Committee. This information may be released for publication
only when the subcommittee so determines as provided by section
8 of the Committee's rules.
SUPPORT PROVIDED BY THE GAO
In addition to the information made available to the
Committee through its Surveys and Investigations Staff, the
Committee also utilizes the resources of the Government
Accountability Office. The Committee receives a copy of every
GAO report addressed to the Congress. In recent years the scope
of the GAO auditing and review capability has been enlarged to
include management surveys. GAO has extracted from those
reports and compiled in separate volumes a list of so-called
``significant audit findings'' for special use by the Committee
staff in the annual appropriations hearings. These findings
relate to matters which are felt to require corrective action
by the Committee's efforts, through legislation, or through
administrative efforts. This compilation is designed to
identify problem areas in an individual agency which might have
applicability to other organizations.
Additionally, the Committee frequently calls upon GAO to
make special studies and investigations.
A listing of some reports and staff studies by the GAO
which were underway during the 117th Congress follows:
