Bill overview
The Bipartisan Budget and Appropriations Reform Act of 2019 aims to modernize the federal budget process by requiring biennial congressional budget resolutions instead of annual ones. It seeks to promote bipartisan cooperation through mechanisms like establishing a target for the national debt-to-GDP ratio and requiring joint hearings between budget committees and the Comptroller General. The bill also introduces changes to the reconciliation process, supplemental budget submissions, and the Senate Budget Committee’s composition to enhance transparency and accountability in federal spending.
