Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2022
Great Seal of the United States
Enacted bythe 117th United States Congress

Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2022 is a $1.5 trillion omnibus spending bill.[1] The bill was passed by Congress on March 14, 2022.[1] The bill was signed into law by President Joe Biden on March 15, 2022.[2]

The law includes $13.6 billion in aid to Ukraine as pat of the United States' response to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.[2][1]

Negotiations

One important point of debate for the bill involved how much defense versus non-defense spending would be increased; Republican "leaders demanded equal levels of growth in the two areas."[3]

Contents

The bill "includes a ban on the use of any maps by the US Department of State and its foreign operations that “inaccurately” depict Taiwan as part of China."[4]
