Summary

The Congressional Research Service’s plain-language summary of what the law does.

This bill provides appropriations to federal agencies for the remainder of FY2022, provides supplemental appropriations for activities to support Ukraine, and modifies or establishes various programs that address a wide range of policy areas.

In addition, the bill reauthorizes several expiring programs and authorities, including

• fraud targeting the elderly;

• deceptive acts or practices targeting Native Americans;

• carbon monoxide poisoning;

Data notes

The House’s recorded vote on the final version of the law (roll call 513 in Voteview), matched to the vote the record cites and checked against its totals. Positions are each member’s DW-NOMINATE score for that Congress, as on the Ideology page; left to right is more liberal to more conservative. Paired and announced yea votes count as yea. Lists follow the compass, most liberal first. A name links to a profile only for members of the current Congress. A law passed by voice vote or unanimous consent has no member list, and neither does a vote Voteview has not yet recorded.
