HRES 36 United States House · 119th Congress

Finding Federal Savings Committee Resolution

HRES 36 creates a new House committee, the Committee on the Elimination of Nonessential Federal Programs, to review and recommend cutting underperforming or unnecessary federal programs. The committee, composed of 14 members (including four from key committees and a bipartisan chair/vice chair), must annually report findings and propose specific legislation to eliminate targeted programs. It establishes expedited rules for such legislation, including a 10-hour debate limit and no amendments, while dissolving after the 120th Congress. This resolution directly affects House procedures and future budget decisions by streamlining program-cutting efforts.
