.Proposing a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution requiring that each agency and department's funding is justified.

HJRES 11 proposes a constitutional amendment requiring the federal government to maintain a balanced budget by ensuring annual spending does not exceed revenue, with specific spending limits tied to gross domestic product (GDP). It mandates that every federal agency and department must justify each line item in its budget request, including how funding supports its mission and its impact on GDP, and provide a reduced funding alternative for critical functions. The amendment includes exceptions for declared wars, military conflicts, or major natural disasters, requiring a two-thirds congressional vote for waivers. This would directly affect all federal agencies by imposing new budget justification requirements and spending caps, though it remains a proposed amendment awaiting state ratification.
