AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would automatically fund federal programs when Congress has not passed a regular spending bill or a temporary funding measure by the start of a fiscal year. Automatic funding would be set at 94 percent of the prior year's rate, then drop by 1 percentage point for each additional 90 days it stays in effect, including into the next fiscal year. Entitlements, other mandatory payments, and food assistance under the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 would be funded at the level needed to keep current program levels. Automatic funding would end when Congress passes a regular spending bill or a continuing resolution, and it would follow the same terms and conditions as the prior year's funding.
