The House and Senate Appropriations Process
Each chamber drafts budget resolutions. They set limits on how much each committee that's going to work in a more granular way can spend or reduce revenue and bills that they're going to consider. The House and Senate Appropriations subcommittees mark up these appropriation bills, usually 12 of them. Then the president signs each of these appropriation bills and the budget becomes law.
