Sustainable Budget Act of 2025

The Sustainable Budget Act of 2025 would establish a 18-member National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform to develop budget recommendations. The Commission would include members appointed by the President and congressional leadership, with specific requirements for approval of its reports (requiring 12 members, including 4 from each major party). The Commission would need to propose policies to balance the budget within 10 years (excluding interest payments) and address entitlement spending and revenue gaps. After submitting reports to Congress, the President would transmit a proposed joint resolution implementing the recommendations, which would then undergo expedited consideration in both houses with limited debate and no amendments allowed. This bill creates a process for developing budget recommendations but does not directly change current fiscal policies.
