Federal Spending Control: Ending Unauthorized Programs
This act aims to increase control over government spending by introducing mechanisms to reduce funding and ultimately terminate programs not reauthorized by Congress. This means taxpayer money will be spent more responsibly, and programs without clear purpose or support will be phased out, potentially affecting the availability of some public services.
Key points
Federal programs not reauthorized by Congress will face gradual funding reductions.
After three years without reauthorization, unauthorized programs will be completely terminated.
A new Spending and Accountability Commission will be established to monitor spending and propose changes.
Budget cuts for unauthorized programs can be avoided if Congress finds other savings in direct spending.
