AI Summary
This bill repeals the Statutory Pay-As-You-Go Act of 2010, which currently prohibits direct spending and revenue legislation from increasing the budget deficit. The Statutory Pay-As-You-Go Act of 2010 required that new legislation affecting federal direct spending or revenue be budget neutral, meaning that any increases in spending or reductions in revenue had to be offset by decreases in spending or increases in revenue elsewhere. This bill would remove that requirement, allowing for legislation that could increase the budget deficit.
