Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) held a news conference following Senate passage of the $1.7T fiscal year 2023 government funding bill. He said the process of getting the bill passed was an apt metaphor for the previous two years, with lots of ups and downs, but in the end it was “a great result that really helped the American people.” The bill, which passed the Senate by a vote of 68-29, funds the federal government through the end of fiscal year 2023 on September 30, 2023. It provides over $850 billion in defense funding, about $45B in emergency assistance to Ukraine and NATO, and also includes and funds other laws, such as the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act, the CHIPS Act, the Electoral Count Act, and several other policies. At the time of this broadcast, the bill had not yet passed the U.S. House. close
