Session-ending spending deal seen as failure not success
The catchall spending bill that sends Congress home is praised by leaders yet criticized as a product of failure. It funds about one third of the federal government via stopgap extensions, skews toward negotiated outcomes, and bypasses full deliberation, provoking Democratic and Republican criticism and Moynihan calling it a bastard parliamentary system. The package totals 487 billion dollars across nearly 4,000 pages, with 13 annual appropriations planned but only five settled.
