The United States federal budget for fiscal year 2021 runs from October 1, 2021, to September 30, 2022. The government was initially funded through a series of four temporary continuing resolutions. The final funding package is in the process of being passed as an omnibus spending bill, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2022.

Budget proposal

The FY2022 budget was the first to not be subject to the spending caps of the Budget Control Act of 2011 due to its expiration.

Appropriations legislation

A series of three continuing resolutions were passed to initially fund government operations.[1]

On March 9, 2022, the House of Representatives passed the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2022 (H.R. 2471), as well as a separate COVID-19 response funding bill (H.R. 7007), and a fourth continuing resolution lasting four days (H.J.Res. 75).[2][3]
