Abstract: The Administration presented its proposed budget for FY2005 to Congress on February 2, 2004, requesting $31.5 billion for the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), an increase of about $300 million above the $31.2 billion enacted for FY2004. On September 9, 2004, the House Appropriations Committee reported H.R. 5041 (H.Rept. 108-674) recommending $32.6 billion for HUD, $1.4 billion more than last years funding, and nearly $1.1 billion above the Administrations request. The Senate Appropriations Committee passed S. 2825 (S.Rept. 108-353) on September 21, 2004, calling for $32.2 billion, slightly more than $1 billion above the FY2004 level and $700 million above the budget request.
