## Summary

**Congressional approval and time limits on national emergencies** would require the President to publish and transmit a proclamation that names the statutory powers to be used and would sharply limit how long those powers can be exercised without Congress OKing them. - Would restrict executive emergency powers to 30 calendar days unless Congress passes a joint resolution to extend them. Renewals take effect for one year only if Congress approves them. - Would force Congress to vote on a single joint resolution that approves the proclamation and the specific laws the President plans to use. Committees face automatic discharge after 10 days and floor debate is time-limited to speed consideration. - Would require publication in the Federal Register and detailed reports to specific congressional leaders and committees, including an estimate of federal expenditures for the next six months and updates at least every six months. The bill also creates a parallel approval track for emergencies that use the International Emergency Economic Powers Act.

- Emergency end returns funds, ends contracts: mixed, high. If enacted, when a national emergency ends under this bill the powers used because of the emergency would stop on that date. Any amounts reprogrammed or transferred for the emergency that remain unobligated would be returned to their original program purpose. Contracts entered into under emergency…
- New rules for emergency economic powers: mixed, medium. If enacted, the bill would make a special approval track for emergencies that use the International Emergency Economic Powers Act.
