Stay on Schedule (S.O.S.) Resolution
This resolution amends House Rules to require that all regular annual appropriation bills for the next fiscal year (starting October 1) be approved by July 31. If the House fails to pass these bills by that date, it cannot schedule a recess during August. The rule applies specifically to "regular appropriation bills" handled by single subcommittees of the Appropriations Committee. This procedural change aims to prevent the House from taking a summer break before finalizing the annual budget funding.
