Aren’t all spending bills supposed to originate in the House? If so, seems this bill is illegal or unconstitutional.

[Olog-hai]

“Illegal” and “unconstitutional” are synonyms.

[Sacajaweau]

It did originate in the House as H.R. 2872...went to the Senate and after minor revisions and a vote, it was sent BACK to the House for final vote.

[Owen]

All funding bills do originate in the House.

Bills from the House earlier this year dealing with funding may have died in the Senate, or gotten tabled without a vote. Then for moments like this they are brought forth and amended in a way that the original content disappears and the new content is the bill.

Perfectly normal.
