Approps Refresher

Irishmike is aware that he throws out a lot of federal approps info and at times the context of which is lost. Sometimes we just need the bottom line, like, "where we at?"

Here's the ubiquitous federal approps chart that is still the best on keeping track of the approps process http://thomas.loc.gov/home/approp/app10.html

And for those keeping score, with Friday's approval of the Energy and Water bill (see previous blog entry), the House has now completed nine bills, with Labor-HHS-Education and Transportation-HUD scheduled for consideration next week. No floor schedule has been announced for the remaining bill, Defense, which is expected to be marked up in the full Appropriations Committee soon.

The Senate has approved two FY10 appropriations bills—Legislative Branch and Homeland Security—with an additional seven bills reported from the Appropriations Committee and awaiting Senate consideration. The Committee has not acted on the Defense, Labor-HHS-Education, and Transportation-HUD bills.

Digital memory is something that I seem to be unable to ever have enough of. It's as if megabytes and gigabytes have become a permanent part of my day to day existence. Ever since I bought a Micro SD Card for my NDS flash card, I've been on the constant lookout for large memory at low prices. It's driving me crazy.

In my opinion you commit an error. I can prove it. Write to me in PM, we will talk.
