WASHINGTON—Appropriators in the House and Senate have moved forward on regular appropriations for 2026, issuing a bipartisan, three-bill package that would fund parts of the federal government through the end of September.

Released on Jan. 5, the new package comes a few weeks after a deal was reached between top Republican lawmakers in both chambers. It lacks some cuts sought by the White House and more conservative Republican lawmakers, a result that drew praise from top Democratic appropriators.
