On Wednesday, the House voted to pass roughly $1.1 trillion in discretionary spending for the remainder of fiscal 2014. The vote bundled together 12 separate bills to fund federal departments and agencies.

With the vote, the House stuck to the deal over top-line discretionary spending struck between House and Senate appropriators in December.
