This bill amends the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974 to establish new procedures for the consideration of annual appropriation bills . In the Senate, it applies existing rules for budget resolutions to these bills and imposes a strict 20-hour limit on debate for annual appropriation bills, including all amendments and motions, though this limit does not apply to continuing appropriations. For the House of Representatives, the bill prohibits the consideration of any resolution for an adjournment period longer than three calendar days during July. This restriction remains in effect until the House has approved all annual appropriation bills providing new budget authority under the jurisdiction of its Appropriations subcommittees for the upcoming fiscal year. These measures collectively aim to encourage the timely passage of regular federal spending legislation.
