Senate Committee Funding Requests and
March 17, 2021
Authorizations, 106th-117th Congresses
Ida A. Brudnick
In the Senate, a biennial funding process applies to al Senate committees except
Specialist on the Congress
Appropriations and Ethics, which have permanent authorizations for their staff and

operating expenses. The Senate Committee on Rules and Administration has jurisdiction
over committee funding resolutions and issues regulations governing committee funding

and staff.
On February 24, 2021, the Senate adopted by unanimous consent S.Res. 70, authorizing expenditures by Senate
committees.
The authorizing resolution al ocates expenditures for three periods:
 March 1, 2021, through September 30, 2021;
 October 1, 2021, through September 30, 2022; and
 October 1, 2022, through February 28, 2023.
This report, which provides committee funding requests and authorizations for Senate committees in the 106th
through 117th Congresses, wil be updated as warranted.

Background
Committee funding and staffing is addressed in Senate Rules XXVI and XXVII and statute.
Authorization of funding for Senate committees (except the Committee on Appropriations1 and
Select Committee on Ethics2), in particular, is governed by Senate Rule XXVI, paragraph 9.3
In general, during the first few months of a new Congress, each Senate committee (except
Appropriations and Ethics) typical y reports a resolution (an “S.Res.”) providing for its expenses.
Since the 106th Congress, committee funding resolutions have divided funds among three
calendar periods to align more closely with the fiscal year appropriations cycle.4 For the 117th
Congress, these periods are
 March 1, 2021, through September 30, 2021 (7 months);
 October 1, 2021, through September 30, 2022 (12 months); and
 October 1, 2022, through February 28, 2023 (5 months).
The resolutions also general y specify limits for expenses related to consultants and training for
each covered period, address requirements for vouchers, and authorize the payment of agency
contributions.5
The individual funding resolutions are then incorporated by the Committee on Rules and
Administration into a single, omnibus committee funding resolution. The resolution provides an
aggregate authorization for al committees (except Appropriations and Ethics) and then separate
sections for each committee.
On February 24, 2021, the Senate adopted by unanimous consent S.Res. 70, authorizing
expenditures by Senate committees.
While funds are authorized and al ocated to these committees through the adoption of the
resolution, the appropriation for committee funding is contained in the annual legislative branch
appropriations acts (in the Senate’s Contingent Expenses, Inquiries and Investigations account).
Table 1 through Table 12 provide the requested and the authorized funding level for committees
for the 106th through 117th Congress, in reverse chronological order. Additional y, al tables show
any difference between the total requested and the total authorized funding level.

1 P.L. 79-601, Legislative Reorganization Act of 1946, Section 202(b), 80 Stat. 834.
2 S.Res. 290, 96th Congress, adopted November 29, 1979; and S.Res. 425, 97th Congress, adopted August 12, 1982. See
also Section 77 of the Senate Manual (U.S. Congress, Senate, Senate Manual, S.Doc 116-1, 116th Cong., 2nd sess.,
compiled by the Senate Committee on Rules and Admin istration, Washington: GPO, 2020).
3 Specifically, Senate rule XXVI, paragraph 9(a) provides for each committee to annually report a funding resolution
authorizing the committee to make expenditures during the period from March 1 of the current year through the last
day of February in the following year. Rule XXVI, paragraph 9(b) provides for a process that may be employed in lieu
of the process outlined in paragraph 9(a); specifically, it permits the Committee on Rules and Administration to direct
each committee to report an authorization resolution covering a two -year period; and for the Committee on Rules and
Administration to report an authorization resolution providing for the expenditures of multiple committees over either a
one- or two-year period. T he omnibus biennial resolution process dates to 1988 (S.Res. 479, 100th Cong; S.Rept. 100-
541).
4 S.Res. 122 (106th Cong.).
5 For additional information on the drafting of committee funding resolutions, see U.S. Congress, Senate Committee on
Rules and Administration, Expenditure Authorizations and Requirem ents for Senate Com m ittees, committee print, 117th
Cong., 1st sess., January 4, 2021, S.Prt. 117-1 (Washington: GPO, 2021).
