This resolution establishes certain budget enforcement procedures and allocations for FY2022 appropriations legislation.
Specifically, the resolution establishes FY2022 budget allocations for the House Appropriations Committee. In addition, the resolution allows the chair of the House Budget Committee to make specified adjustments to the allocations to accommodate additional spending for
disaster relief,
wildfire suppression,
Internal Revenue Service tax enforcement,
health care fraud and abuse control, and
continuing disability reviews and redeterminations.
The resolution also includes provisions that address emergency spending and advance appropriations.
The provisions in this resolution expire when a congressional budget resolution for FY2022 is passed by both chambers of Congress.

Where is it in the process, and what happens next?
A simple resolution is the business of a single chamber. The House can adopt it on its own, and it is never sent to the other chamber or to the President.
The record's latest action, on June 14, 2021: Pursuant to the provisions of H. Res. 473, H. Res. 467 is considered passed House. (consideration: CR H2724-2725; text: CR H2724-2725)
What is a simple resolution, exactly?
A simple resolution concerns one chamber only, such as its own rules or an expression of its opinion. The other chamber and the President play no part, and it does not carry the force of law.
Has anyone actually voted on it?
No. No roll call in this Congress cites this measure. That is the ordinary outcome: most measures never reach a recorded floor vote, and a committee ends most of them simply by not acting.
A vote is not the only thing that happens to a measure. Hearings, markups, and referrals are all recorded actions, and none of them is a vote of the full chamber.
Who is behind it?
John Yarmuth (D-KY) introduced it on June 11, 2021. No cosponsors are recorded.
Cosponsoring is a formal signature on the text. It is not a commitment to vote for the measure, it does not bind anyone's party, and a long list of cosponsors is a measure of attention rather than of prospects.
How long has it been in play?
It was introduced on June 11, 2021, 1917 days ago. The most recent recorded action was 1914 days ago, on June 14, 2021.
Measures do not carry over. Anything the 117th Congress has not finished by January 3, 2023 dies when the term ends, and has to be introduced again from the start in the next Congress.
That deadline applies to this measure too, even though it was never headed for the President's desk.
Every answer above is assembled from this measure's own record on Congress.gov and from published counts of what Congress has passed before. Civibrief does not predict outcomes and takes no position on any measure.
