Today, Senator Shaheen and Senator Johnny Isakson (R-GA) reintroduced the bipartisan Biennial Budgeting and Appropriations Act in an effort to reform Congress’ broken budgeting process. The legislation would convert Congress’ annual appropriations process to a two-year budget cycle. “Our biennial budgeting legislation offers a bipartisan, pragmatic reform to our country’s broken budget process. In New Hampshire we’ve seen firsthand that biennial budgeting works, and it’s time to bring this common-sense reform to Washington. Our bipartisan proposal will allow for better oversight of taxpayer dollars and a more thoughtful budget process with fewer opportunities for manufactured crises. We should act on our proposal now.” -JS Read more about the bipartisan effort here:
