Congress will head into its Memorial Day recess at the end of this week with a host of unanswered questions about the annual budget process<\/a>, including a detailed plan of what the White House hopes to fund \u2014 and cut \u2014 in fiscal 2026. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last week, both Republicans and Democrats on the House Appropriations Committee expressed frustration that the administration still has not released in-depth budget plans<\/a> for federal departments and agencies, despite the current fiscal year being halfway complete. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

White House officials on May 2 released a \u201cskinny\u201d budget plan<\/a> with broad funding goals for the year, but said a detailed plan will come later this summer. Appropriators said that limits much of their work, which typically takes six to nine months after the president\u2019s budget outline. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The delays \u2014 coupled with ongoing congressional fights over the reconciliation budget bill \u2014 raise concerns about another possible partial government shutdown at the end of this fiscal year, Sept. 30. Lawmakers have only 10 weeks of legislative work scheduled between now and that deadline. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
