A bill to provide for a period of continuing appropriations in the event of a lapse in appropriations under the normal appropriations process, to establish procedures and consequences in the event of a failure to enact appropriations, and for other purposes.

This bill appears to set up a plan to keep the federal government funded temporarily if Congress does not pass its regular spending bills on time. It also seems to create rules and consequences for when Congress fails to pass those spending bills. No official summary is available for this bill.
