Summary

Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2025

This bill provides continuing FY2025 appropriations for federal agencies, provides additional funding for the U.S. Secret Service, and extends various expiring programs and authorities.

Specifically, the bill provides continuing FY2025 appropriations to federal agencies through the earlier of December 20, 2024, or the enactment of the applicable appropriations act. It is known as a continuing resolution (CR) and prevents a government shutdown that would otherwise occur if the FY2025 appropriations bills have not been enacted when FY2025 begins on October 1, 2024. 

The CR funds most programs and activities at the FY2024 levels with several exceptions that provide funding flexibility and additional appropriations for various programs. For example, the bill provides additional funding for the Secret Service to carry out protective operations, including for the 2024 presidential campaign and National Special Security Events. 

In addition, the bill extends several expiring programs and authorities, including

  • several public health programs,
  • various programs and authorities related to veterans,
  • the National Flood Insurance Program,
  • the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program,
  • the Food for Peace program,
  • the authorities of the U.S. Parole Commission,
  • the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) National Cybersecurity Protection System,
  • authorities for DHS and the Department of Justice to take certain actions to mitigate a credible threat from an unmanned aircraft system, 
  • several Department of Agriculture programs and authorities,
  • the Department of Defense's authority to use funds for certain military construction projects, and
  • authorities for sanctions related to human rights abuses in Hong Kong.
