In the Senate, a biennial funding process applies to all Senate committees except 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 27, 2025, the Senate adopted by unanimous consent S.Res. 94 (119th Congress), authorizing expenditures by Senate committees. The authorizing resolution allocates expenditures for three periods: March 1, 2025, through September 30, 2025; October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2026; and October 1, 2026, through February 28, 2027. This report, which provides committee funding requests and authorizations for Senate committees in the 106th through 119th Congresses, will be updated as warranted.
