Winter The President sends his budget request to Congress by the first week in February. Congress considers the President’s proposal and then begins crafting its own budget resolution.
Spring Congress finalizes its budget resolution, which is like a blueprint for the year.
Summer Congress begins consideration of individual appropriations, entitlement, and tax bills.
Fall Congress finalizes appropriations and other bills, as the President begins formulating his budget request for the following year.

![Page 12: The Federal Budget Process and Its Impact on the Nonprofit Sector July 21 st, 2011 Participant Call-In Number: 888-228-0609.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649eea5503460f94bfb9c5/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The Road Ahead
Federal Budget Process
• Will the debt ceiling agreement cap or determine FY12 appropriations?
• When could FY12 appropriations be enacted?
• Will there be a another “showdown” this year?
