Transparency in Federal Spending Resolution

Transparency in Federal Spending Resolution

This resolution permits Members to object to the consideration of legislation that authorizes or appropriates funding for programs unless the legislation includes a table (in a machine-readable format) that details the funding. The table must account for (1) the total amount, and the amount per fiscal year, of the funding; and (2) estimates of the affect (if any) of the funding on the cost of servicing the public debt.

An objection raised on these grounds may not be waived.
