AI Summary

This bill, the Zombie Programs Survival Guide Act, requires the Director of the Office of Management and Budget to issue guidance that instructs federal agencies to report annually on any of their programs or revolving funds that provide federal financial assistance but did not do so in the preceding 12-month period. The agencies must explain why these "zombie" programs did not provide assistance and report the amount of budget authority available for them. The goal is to increase transparency and accountability around federal programs that are still active but not actively providing assistance to the public.
