HR 564 United States House · 118th Congress

Saving Taxpayers’ Money and Paying America’s Debt Act

HR 564 redirects unspent funds from the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARP) to reduce the federal deficit. It requires all unobligated ARP funds - money allocated but not yet spent - to be sent to the Treasury's general fund upon the bill's enactment. This action directly affects federal budget accounting by canceling unused appropriations rather than creating new programs or aiding specific groups. The bill does not alter existing laws or services but focuses solely on reallocating existing, unspent federal funds. It is a procedural budget measure with no direct impact on taxpayers or beneficiaries of the ARP.
