RRB Operating Under Temporary Funding

RRB Operating Under Temporary Funding
PDF Logo

 

Like other federal agencies, the Railroad Retirement Board (RRB) has been operating under a continuing resolution since October 1, 2024, the start of fiscal year (FY) 2025. The temporary funding measure provides the agency with continuing appropriations of $27.9 million through December 20, 2024.

The continuing resolution avoided a potential governmentwide shutdown, as Congress was unable to reach agreement on FY 2025 spending bills before the beginning of the new fiscal year.

The Senate Committee on Appropriations has approved a fiscal year (FY) 2025 funding level of $129 million for the Railroad Retirement Board (RRB). The RRB appreciates the Committee’s mark, which is notably higher than the House’s proposed spending level. But it should be noted that Congress cut the RRB’s budget for FY 2024, which has severely impacted agency operations.

The House Appropriations Subcommittee on Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and Related Agencies has released its funding bill for fiscal year (FY) 25. When the Railroad Retirement Board’s (RRB) budget for FY 24 was finalized (six months into the year), the approved budget was $126 million, reflecting a $2 million decrease from FY 23. The agency, already understaffed, was forced to implement a hiring freeze and make wholesale budget cuts.
