In practice, the President sometimes sends it later, particularly during presidential transition years. On May 28, 2021, President Joseph R. Biden submitted the FY2022 budget request. Representative Adam Smith, Chair of the House Committee on Armed Services (also known as the House Armed Services Committee, or HASC) had said that a budget submitted on May 10 or later could affect the timing for completion of an annual National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) by the October 1 start of the government's fiscal year (FY). On July 28-29, the seven full committee with recommendations for matters in the FY2022 NDAA under their jurisdiction. On August 25, Chairman Smith released each subcommittee's proposal in preparation of the full committee markup. On September 1, HASC began considering and marking up the legislation. On September 2, the committee voted 57-2 to order H.R. 4350 reported to the House with an amendment in the nature of a substitute reflecting the work product of the two-day markup. On September 10, the committee filed its report, H.Rept. 117-118, to accompany the legislation. (On September 17, the committee filed a supplemental report that included the Congressional Budget Office's cost estimate for the bill, among other information.) On September 21-23, the House debated and considered amendments to H.R. 4350 and, on September 23, passed the measure by a vote of 316-113. On July 19-20, the seven subcommittees of the Senate Committee on Armed Services (also known as the Senate Armed Services Committee, or SASC), marked up draft legislative proposals with recommendations for matters in the FY2022 NDAA under their jurisdiction. Two of the markups were held in open sessions (Subcommittee on Readiness and Management Support, and Subcommittee on Personnel), five were closed. On July 21, SASC considered the legislation in a closed session and voted 23-3 to order reported an original bill reflecting changes agreed to in markup. On September 22, SASC reported S. 2792 and filed the accompanying report S.Rept. 117-39. The Senate did not vote on final passage of S. 2792. On November 19, Senator Jack Reed, Chair of SASC, offered on the floor an amendment in the nature of a substitute (S.Amdt. 3867) to H.R. 4350 to replace the text of the House- passed legislation with a modified version of the SASC-reported bill. The Senate did not agree to end debate on the amendment (S.Amdt. 3867), as modified; cloture was not invoked by a vote of 45-51. Unlike in most years, the House and Senate did not establish a conference committee to resolve differences between the two versions of the bill. Instead, leaders of the HASC and the SASC negotiated a bicameral agreement based on the two versions. On December 7, the committees released the text of the agreement, which was filed as a House amendment to an unrelated Senate-passed bill, S. 1605.
