What this bill does
AI plain-language summaryThis resolution sets up the federal government's budget plan for 2027 and outlines spending and revenue targets through 2036, covering areas like federal income, spending, debt, and major categories of government programs. It tells several congressional committees to come up with proposals that would change the federal deficit and submit those proposals by September 11, 2026, using a special fast-track process that limits debate and amendments in the Senate. The resolution also includes rules for how the budget is enforced, including how to handle things like emergency spending, disaster relief, wildfire response, Social Security and Postal Service administrative costs, and health care fraud prevention.
