End Shutdowns Act

This bill would prevent government shutdowns by automatically continuing federal funding at the previous year's level if Congress fails to pass annual budget bills by October 1. It requires Congress to prioritize budget legislation over other matters during funding gaps, with only limited exceptions for true emergencies like national security threats. All federal programs and agencies would operate using prior-year funding rates until a new budget is enacted, applying broadly across the government unless specific exemptions exist under current law. The bill does not create new spending but changes the process to avoid shutdowns by default.
