Democrats passed the two appropriations bills — interior and environment, as well as energy and water — by voice votes in their respective subcommittees. They are expected to be taken up by the full Appropriations Committee as soon as next week and taken to the House floor in June.

The $37.3 billion interior and environment bill allocated $9.5 billion for the EPA, a $672 million increase. In his budget request, Trump asked Congress to slash a third of the agency’s funding.

It also increased Interior Department funding to $13.8 billion, instead of reducing it by 11 percent as Trump had requested. Portions of the increase went to environmental offices dealing with ecological services, land management, fish and wildlife, as well as national parks.

The $46.4 billion energy and water bill rejected Trump’s calls to cut eliminate Advanced Research Projects Agency — Energy and claw back previous funding, instead increasing it by $59 million, or 16 percent.

Republicans on the committee said they objected to advancing bills before the House, Senate and White House reached a deal to increase budget caps for 2020. The committee is writing spending bills based on figures that Democrats proposed.
