Unfunded Priorities and a big budget fight
With days left before the fiscal year begins, lawmakers are split between a short stopgap through mid-November and a longer extension into early 2026.
Senate advances $852 billion defense bill while funding chaos looms; Knox speeds FedRAMP compliance; GSA & GWAC transitions ahead; global tensions across Iran, Russia, China & Taiwan call for tailored missions, not panic.
House passes $831.5 billion defense bill; Senate aims to raise the topline above $870 billion at the July 31 markup. Quality‑of‑life boosts and industrial‑base upgrades dominate the debate.
