AI Summary
This bill, the Congressional Budget Justification Transparency Act of 2021, requires federal agencies to publicly release their budget justification materials, which are the annual budget documents submitted to Congress. The bill amends the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006 to mandate the monthly or quarterly publication of various budgetary information, such as appropriated funds, obligations, and outlays, on a government website. It also requires the Office of Management and Budget to maintain a central list of all agency budget justifications and their publication dates. The goal of the bill is to increase transparency around the federal budget process by making this important information more accessible to the public.
