FY 2017 Budget House Debate

About this step

The full body of the House of Representatives considers amendments to the House Ways and Means recommendations, and debates their inclusion in the bill. This is a very busy time for the House of Representatives, as the Representatives and their staffs are constantly working to make sure the concerns and needs of their constituents are addressed in the final budget.
