Bill Overview
Analyzed Economic Effects
1 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 0 costs, 1 mixed.
Repeal rules on withholding federal funds
If enacted, this bill would repeal the Impoundment Control Act of 1974. That law sets the process for the President and agencies to delay or cancel budgeted money, and for Congress to review those moves. Without it, those process rules would go away. This could change when programs get money and when benefit or grant payments go out. The bill provides no replacement process and no transition rules; it would take effect on enactment.
