Understanding the Budget and Appropriations Process
Ready to make a difference in climate policy, but not sure where to start? We have you covered. The Environmental and Energy Study Institute (EESI) invites you to join us for our start-of-the-new-Congress briefing series, Climate Camp. We will review climate science, cutting-edge innovations, and the role of the legislative process in climate mitigation and adaptation.
This briefing will cover the fiscal year 2026 presidential budget proposal and the outlook for Congressional appropriations. Panelists will describe the different stages of the appropriations cycle and how the process interfaces with other legislative activity on the Hill. The briefing will also shed light on the role of the 12 appropriations subcommittees, and highlight ways Congressional staff—working both on and off the appropriations committees—can engage with the process. To illustrate the appropriations process, panelists will share examples from federal energy and environmental programs.
