What this bill does

AI plain-language summary

This bill would automatically provide funding to two government commissions - the National Capital Planning Commission and the Commission of Fine Arts - during any year when Congress has not passed their regular budget but they received money the year before. The funding would be at the same amount and with the same rules as the previous year. This would keep these two commissions running even if the rest of the federal government shuts down due to lack of funding.
