The Senate has passed a $1.5 trillion spending bill that provides funding for all federal agencies, including the Treasury and the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
The FY2022 omnibus bill, which is now cleared to be signed into law by President Joe Biden, also provides $13.6 billion to address the crisis in Ukraine, according to the House Appropriations Committee.
