The House is set to consider several annual spending bills as lawmakers return to Washington this week, including proposals to slash the salaries of top Biden administration officials and defund special counsel Jack Smith’s prosecutions against former President Donald Trump.
Lawmakers are expected to vote on three of their must-pass appropriations bills to fund the departments of Defense and Homeland Security, as well as state and foreign operations. The House Appropriations Committee will also continue its markups for other spending bills that will come to the floor later this summer, including the Commerce, Justice, and Science appropriations bills that allocate funding for agencies such as the Justice Department.
