Summary

Stop the Baseline Bloat Act of 2025

This bill changes the assumptions that the Congressional Budget Office uses to calculate the baseline for discretionary spending. (A baseline is a projection of federal spending and receipts during a fiscal year under current law.) Specifically, the bill changes the assumptions used for the discretionary spending baseline to exclude (1) resources designated as an emergency requirement, and (2) resources provided in supplemental appropriations laws.
