What impact does the Senate Finance Committee have on the budget?

They approve "pet" projects

They analyze tax code

They audit agencies

They monitor funds

Formed to alleviate the United States from the economic issues that arose in the War of 1812, the Senate Finance Committee has set its role within the decision making of issues related to taxation, trade, and health policy. Its wide range of influence makes it one of the committees wherein many Senators seek membership. The correct answer is: They monitor funds.

For the other answers, the Committee on Appropriations are the ones in charge of the approval of "pet projects"; the ones in charge of auditing agencies are the Government Accounting Office; the Congress Joint Committee on Taxation analyzes the tax code.
