| 摘要： | The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers would receive more than $8 billion under fiscal year 2022 spending measures approved by the House and the Senate Appropriations Committee. Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), the chairwoman of the Energy and Water Development Subcommittee, said the $8.7 billion-a $906 million hike over fiscal year 2021-in the Senate bill represents a record level of funding for the Corps' civil works program. Before the committee's 25-5 vote on the bill, however, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) warned it and two others advanced by the panel would never make it out of the Senate. McConnell blamed the lack of bipartisan agreements on a top-line budget figure, allocations for individual spending bills and both legacy and new policy riders. "That's not going to fly on the Senate floor, and we all know it," he said. Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.), the committee's chairman, conceded the panel was not following traditional order. |
