It also sets a two-thirds threshold for emergency designations and limits splitting funding across more than three suballocations. - Would set year-by-year federal totals for revenues, new budget authority, outlays, annual deficits, and public debt for 2026–2035 and would allocate new budget authority and outlays across major functions.
