House Republican leaders have an aggressive plan to pass all of the fiscal 2025 appropriations bills on the floor by the start of the August recess, which they rolled out to members during a Wednesday morning conference meeting.
Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La., told Republicans that the chamber will start moving bills on the floor the first week of June, with the Military Construction-VA bill first out of the gate. That measure advanced out of subcommittee Tuesday and is set for full-committee consideration Thursday.
The chamber will then focus on the defense authorization bill the following week, before taking a recess the week of June 17. The Homeland Security, State-Foreign Operations and Defense measures will hit the floor the week of June 24 under the plan.
