Bill overview
This bill, known as the FUBAR Act, proposes to reduce the pay of all members of Congress by $1 per day if Congress fails to pass appropriations bills, leading to a government shutdown. The reduction would apply during the congressional session following a shutdown. This measure aims to incentivize Congress to avoid budget impasses and ensure timely funding for federal agencies. The pay reduction would only take effect after the next regularly scheduled election.
