How many of the 12 appropriations bills remain unpassed after Jan. 8?

Question

Accepted Answer

Six appropriations bills remain after January 8: Defense, Labor-HHS-Education, Homeland Security, Transportation-HUD, Financial Services, and State-Foreign Operations. Three bills passed in November 2025 (Agriculture, Military Construction-VA, Legislative Branch) and three more passed January 8, 2026 (Commerce-Justice-Science, Energy-Water, Interior-Environment)—totaling six enacted. The remaining six include the two largest and most contentious bills: Defense ($831.5B House allocation) and Labor-HHS-Ed ($184.5B House, $197B Senate). These six face a January 30 deadline with no resolution on the $21 billion spending gaps.
