Summary

Repeal Sequestration for Defense Act

This bill amends the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 to eliminate the sequestration for security and defense spending. (Sequestration is a process of automatic, usually across-the-board spending reductions under which budgetary resources are permanently cancelled to enforce specific budget policy goals.)
