01 — The Text

What.

  • Establishes budgetary levels for the federal government for FY2027 and sets recommended levels for FY2028–FY2036
  • Directs four House committees (Agriculture, Armed Services, Intelligence, and Administration) to submit reconciliation recommendations by September 11, 2026
  • Specifies that reconciliation instructions allow these committees to increase the deficit by not more than stated amounts over the 10-year period
  • Establishes a reserve fund to accommodate adjustments related to reconciliation legislation
  • Sets forth budget enforcement procedures for discretionary spending, emergency spending, disaster relief, and other specified categories
02 — The Stakes

So what?

  • Reconciliation legislation submitted under these instructions will follow expedited Senate procedures that prevent filibusters and restrict amendments
  • The resolution's enforcement procedures govern how committee allocations and budgetary levels may be adjusted for various spending categories
  • The official summary does not specify the exact deficit amounts authorized or document any projected fiscal outcomes
  • The resolution's effect on actual spending and revenues depends on legislation that committees will draft after this concurrent resolution is adopted
03 — The Path

Now what?

  • House passed the resolution on July 22, 2026 (216–214)
  • Senate Budget Committee discharged the resolution on July 23, 2026 without a committee vote
  • Resolution placed on Senate Legislative Calendar under General Orders (Calendar No. 468) on July 23, 2026
  • The resolution's deadline for committee reconciliation recommendations is September 11, 2026
