Bill overview
The Government Shutdown Prevention Act of 2025 aims to prevent government shutdowns by establishing automatic continuing appropriations. If a regular appropriations bill isn't enacted before a fiscal year begins, this bill provides funds at 94% of the previous year’s level for 90 days. After that initial period, the funding is reduced by 1% each 90-day interval until a permanent appropriations bill is passed. The bill also ensures that funding continues at similar levels for the following fiscal year if a lapse in appropriations occurs.
