H.R. 1968: Full-Year Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2025
The bill titled "Full-Year Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2025" aims to provide ongoing funding for various governmental departments and programs throughout the fiscal year ending September 30, 2025. Here are the key components of the legislation:
Funding for Government Programs
The bill ensures that essential appropriations for federal departments and programs continue, contributing to stable operation through fiscal year 2025. It extends several health and education initiatives, indicating a focus on maintaining support in these areas.
Defense Funding
A significant portion of the bill is allocated to defense research and development projects. The allocations include:
- Navy: $25.97 billion
- Air Force: $46.81 billion
- Space Force: $18.55 billion
- Defense-Wide Activities: $35.24 billion
This funding is aimed at bolstering national defense and advancing military capabilities.
Historic Preservation Fund
The bill allows the obligations of the Department of the Interior's Historic Preservation Fund from fiscal years 2018 and 2019 to remain available until fiscal year 2026. This means that funds earmarked for historic preservation projects can continue to be utilized beyond their original deadlines, with amounts repurposed being classified as emergency requirements.
Health Programs Amendments
Additionally, the bill amends various sections of the Social Security Act to extend deadlines and increase funding for critical health services. Notably, it shifts significant deadlines related to Medicare and Medicaid along with other specific health services from March 31, 2025, to September 30, 2025, thus providing continuity in funding and support for these programs.
Summary
In summary, the bill addresses funding for various government operations, with a particular emphasis on defense and health programs. It extends critical initiatives and allows for the repurposing of funds for historical preservation, supporting ongoing governmental functionality into the next fiscal year.
