Bill overview
This bill, the One Subject at a Time Act, aims to ensure that bills passed by Congress focus on a single, clearly defined subject. It requires that each bill have a title that accurately reflects its subject matter and limits appropriations bills to provisions directly related to the bill's main topic. Any legislation with multiple subjects or provisions outside the bill's scope will be considered void, and individuals can sue the U.S. government for violations.
