Each year, Congress issues directives to federal agencies, including NIH, in the reports accompanying House and Senate appropriations bills. These directives are assigned for response to NIH institutes, according to their areas of expertise; some topics may be relevant to several institutes’ research portfolios. The responses are published, along with the rest of the congressional justification, in the following year’s Presidential Budget Request. - NIH Appropriations History by Institute and Center from the NIH Office of Budget
