Summary:
The appropriations bill for the Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education, and Related Agencies
(LHHS) is the largest (estimated at $1.1 trillion in FY2019) of the 12 annual appropriations bills, when accounting for
both mandatory and discretionary funding. As of September 26, the House and the Senate have each adopted the
conference report (H.Rept. 115-952) accompanying H.R. 6157. The agreement contains full-year appropriations for
LHHS (Division B) and the Department of Defense (Division A), as well as continuing appropriations (through
December 7) for the remaining annual appropriations acts. The bill has been sent to the President for his signature. If
H.R. 6157 is signed into law by the start of the fiscal year, it would be the first instance since the FY1997 appropriations
cycle that full-year LHHS appropriations were enacted on or before October 1.
