As part of the FY 2022 appropriations process, the Senate agreed to allow the return of congressionally directed spending in a manner that promotes transparency and accountability. In addition to adhering to Rule XLIV of the Standing Rules of the Senate, there is a 1 percent cap on all congressionally directed spending items and a ban on congressionally directed spending items to for-profit entities. Below is a list of congressionally directed spending requests that I am advocating for during the FY 2022 appropriations process. There is no guarantee that all requests will be funded by the Senate Appropriations Committee. If you have any questions or concerns regarding congressionally directed spending, please contact my office at 202-224-4024.
