	U.S. Senate Committee on Appropriations - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Its role is defined by the U.S. Constitution, which requires "appropriations made by law" prior to the expenditure of any money from the Treasury, and is therefore one of the most powerful committees in the Senate.
		The committee was first organized on March 6, 1867, when power over appropriations was taken out of the hands of the Finance Committee.
		The chairman of the Appropriations Committee has enormous power to bring home special projects (sometimes referred to as "pork barrel spending") for his or her state as well as having the final say on other Senator's appropriation requests.

	Senate Appropriations Committee Proposal Poses Threat to SCHIP - 6-2-00
		If the rescission is enacted, chances are substantial that a pattern will develop of the appropriations committees turning to SCHIP funds in future years to compensate for shortfalls in the funding available for discretionary programs.
		But appropriation acts for fiscal year 1990 and fiscal year 1991 reduced the amounts provided in each of these fiscal years, using the savings to help finance discretionary appropriations.
		When the appropriation bills for fiscal years 1992 and 1993 were subsequently written, however, the restored funding was delayed again, although it ultimately was provided.
