New Inspector General for budget office
If enacted, the bill would create an Inspector General for the Office of Management and Budget. The President would need to appoint the IG within 120 days after enactment. The IG could only review matters that the law assigns to OMB. This would boost oversight but would not directly change taxes, benefits, or household payments.
