AI Summary
This bill, also known as the "Failed to Uphold the Budget? Allowance: Reduced Act" or the "FUBAR Act," proposes to reduce the pay of Members of Congress to one dollar per day if there is a lapse in appropriations for any federal agency or department due to a failure to pass a regular appropriations bill or a continuing resolution. A lapse in appropriations means that funding for government operations has run out. A Member of Congress is defined as an individual serving in the Senate or the House of Representatives. This provision would take effect after the next regularly scheduled general election for federal office.
