No, they don't. That's precisely the reason any of this is being included in the budget bill.

The budget bill isn't subject to the filibuster. It only requires 51 votes to pass.

Putting these things in a separate bill would guarantee their demise, as that bill would require 60 votes which they don't have a snowball's chance in hell of getting.
