Legislative Branch Appropriations Bill

A Legislative Branch Appropriations Bill is a federal law that allocates funding for the operation and activities of Congress and related agencies. It provides the necessary money for Congress’s daily functions, such as staff salaries, office expenses, and support services. This bill ensures Congress has the resources to carry out its legislative, investigative, and oversight duties. It must be approved by both chambers of Congress and signed by the President before the funds can be used. Essentially, it governs how much money Congress can spend to function effectively each year.
