Bill > S2067

This bill is a comprehensive rescission measure that aims to cancel (or take back) specific unobligated budget authority from various federal government programs and departments, primarily focusing on international organizations, foreign assistance, and other federal funding streams. Specifically, the bill proposes to rescind approximately $7.1 billion in unobligated funds from multiple budget categories, including contributions to international organizations, global health programs, migration and refugee assistance, economic support funds, development assistance, and various independent agencies. The rescissions are primarily drawn from appropriations made in the Department of State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs Appropriations Act of 2024 and the Full-Year Continuing Appropriations Act of 2025. Additionally, the bill includes provisions to rescind funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting for fiscal years 2026 and 2027. The rescissions are being proposed pursuant to the Presidential special message transmitted on June 3, 2025, under the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974, which allows the President to propose the cancellation of previously approved budget authority. These rescissions would take effect immediately upon the bill's enactment, effectively reducing federal spending across multiple international and domestic program areas.
