The United States federal budget for fiscal year 2023 ran from October 1, 2022, to September 30, 2023. The government was initially funded through a series of three temporary continuing resolutions. The final funding package was passed as an omnibus spending bill, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023.

Budget proposal

The Biden administration budget proposal was released in March 2022.^[2]

Appropriations legislation

A series of three continuing resolutions were passed to initially fund government operations:^[3]

All 12 appropriations bills were enacted as a part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023, a $1.7 trillion omnibus spending bill. It includes funding for a range of domestic and foreign policy priorities, including support for Ukraine, defense spending, and aid for regions affected by natural disasters. It also includes provisions related to advanced transportation research, health care, electoral reform, and restrictions on the use of the social media app TikTok.^[4][5][6]
