Top appropriators struck a deal Tuesday night on a government funding framework critical to finalizing a mammoth year-end spending package.
In a statement, retiring Senate Appropriations Chair Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) said appropriators have "reached a bipartisan, bicameral framework that should allow us to finish an omnibus appropriations bill that can pass the House and Senate and be signed into law by the President."
Leading negotiators didn't release those government funding totals in announcing the deal, but appropriators have largely settled on an $858 billion defense budget in recent weeks.
