Appropriations Bill Mark-Up

The last of the four main congressional fiscal year 2013 defense bills is scheduled to be marked up next week.

The Senate committee schedule shows the Senate Appropriations defense subcommittee plans to address its FY-13 defense-spending bill Tuesday morning at 10:30, room SD-192.

So far, the committee has not said the session will be closed.

On May 17, the House Appropriations Committee marked up its version of the FY-13 spending bill. On May 21, the full House approved its version of the FY-13 defense authorization bill, and on June 6, the Senate Armed Services Committee released a report accompanying its version of the bill.
