It is expected the Oversight Committee will consider the bill after Labor Day when it returns from its August recess. NCH is closely monitoring the situation and will post developments via our social media, newsletter and website. NCH will obviously mount a vigorous campaign to oppose the bill and when appropriate you will be sent a legislative alert concerning on how to contact your Members of Congress. </span><a href="http://historycoalition.us10.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=08692bfb14b4b62cef6bb2878&id=aaea2c2139&e=79ebd3acbe" style="font-size:16px;line-height:20.7999992370605px;word-wrap:break-word;color:#6dc6dd;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">Read more...</a><br>

<span style="font-size:16px">The fiscal year 2016 appropriations process in Congress has broken down despite a burst of momentum over the past six weeks. For the first time in six years, both the House and Senate Appropriations Committees completed action on the twelve funding bills before the August recess. In fact, the House was able to pass six appropriations bills.<br>
<br>
The chart below shows the current status level of funding of programs of interest to our community. The number shown reflects the furthest that agency’s budget has gotten through the process. For example, some bills have passed the House, while none of the Senate bills have been considered on the floor. As you can see most programs are level funded. So while these are not the final budget numbers one should not expect these to change much. <a href="http://historycoalition.us10.list-manage.com/track/click?u=08692bfb14b4b62cef6bb2878&id=47d41513e4&e=79ebd3acbe" style="word-wrap:break-word;color:#6dc6dd;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">Read more...</a></span><br>
