President Signs 6 Month Spending Bill

Last Friday President Obama signed HJ Res 117, the Continuing Appropriations Resolution, 2013, that will fund the federal government through March 27^th, 2013. This bill increases spending across the board by 0.612% {§101(c)} and extends the CFATS authorization until the same date (§139). There are some areas of the government that get extra monies, including certain federal cybersecurity programs (§137).

The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) has assigned PL 112-175 to this legislation, but it has not yet shown up at that link on the GPO web site. It will probably show up there in the next day or so.
