The house and senate appropriations committees and their subcommittees handle appropriations bills.
Subcommittees hold hearings, take testimony, and prepare the initial draft of legislation before submitting the bill for approval, revision, or rejection to the committee. The committee either passes it into law or throws it out as unconstitutional.
Subcommittees in the United States Congress are all specialized for a certain issue, so members of subcommittees are well-versed in the area their subcommittee is assigned to. Subcommittees initiate bills pertaining to their area of expertise.

Subcommittees are responsible to, and work within the guidelines established by, their parent committees. In particular, standing committees usually create subcommittees with legislative jurisdiction to consider and report bills. They may assign their subcommittees such specific tasks as the initial consideration of measures and oversight of laws and programs in the subcommittees' areas. Service on subcommittees enables members to develop expertise in specialized fields. Subcommittees diffuse the legislative process. For the most part, they are independent, autonomous units with written jurisdictions, and, pursuant to longstanding practice, most bills are referred by a full committee to them.[
