Bill > HR46

This bill, the "One Bill, One Subject Transparency Act", aims to require that each bill enacted by Congress be limited to only one subject. The key provisions of the bill are: 1. Each bill or joint resolution shall embrace no more than one subject, and the subject must be clearly and descriptively expressed in the title. 2. Appropriations bills cannot contain any general legislation or change of existing law provision that is not germane to the subject matter of the underlying bill. 3. The bill provides enforcement mechanisms, including that if a bill's title addresses two or more unrelated subjects or if a bill contains provisions concerning a subject not expressed in its title, those portions shall be void. It also allows individuals, including members of Congress, to bring lawsuits against the government to seek relief for violations of the bill's requirements. The overall goal of the bill is to increase transparency by ensuring that Congress passes bills that are limited to a single subject, as opposed to bundling unrelated provisions together.
