Bill > HRes1151

This Resolution establishes budget allocations and levels for fiscal year 2023 and beyond, serving as a framework for enforcing budget laws like the Congressional Budget Act of 1974. It outlines specific spending limits for the Committee on Appropriations, totaling over $1.6 trillion in new discretionary budget authority for fiscal year 2023, and sets overall spending and revenue targets for all committees, consistent with the Congressional Budget Office's baseline projections. The Chair of the Committee on the Budget is empowered to make adjustments to these allocations for various reasons, including changes in the budget baseline, new laws, or specific circumstances like disaster relief, wildfire suppression, healthcare fraud control, disability reviews, and reemployment services, with defined limits for each. The Resolution also addresses the budgetary treatment of administrative expenses for the Social Security Administration and the U.S. Postal Service, and places limitations on advance appropriations, which are funds provided in one fiscal year for use in a future year, with specific exceptions for certain programs and veterans' accounts. These provisions will remain in effect until a concurrent resolution on the budget for fiscal year 2023 is adopted by both the House and the Senate.
