Summary

What the bill does

This bill would keep the government running at current spending levels for a short time after the fiscal year starts on October 1, 2026. It continues funding for most federal programs at the same rates as the previous year, until December 4, 2026, or until new spending bills are passed. The bill also includes special rules for the Defense Department, such as not allowing new production or higher production rates without separate approval.

Why it matters

The stakes

If this bill does not pass, many government agencies would shut down because their funding would run out. That would affect federal workers, military personnel, and people who rely on government services such as food assistance and veterans' benefits.
