Impoundments (a) Findings Congress finds the following: (1) The Impoundment Control Act of 1974 ( 2 U.S.C. 681 et seq.) prevents the executive branch from unilaterally rescinding budget authority appropriated by Congress. (2) One of the stated purposes of the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974 ( 2 U.S.C. 621 et seq.) is to establish a procedure providing congressional control over the impoundment of funds by the executive branch . (3) The Impoundment Control Act of 1974 ( 2 U.S.C. 681 et seq.) requires congressional approval for any rescission proposed by the executive branch. (4) The Impoundment Control Act of 1974 ( 2 U.S.C. 681 et seq.) allows the executive branch to withhold funds for a limited time to accommodate congressional consideration of a rescission proposal, but does not delegate rescission authority from Congress to the executive branch by permitting the executive branch to withhold funds until budget authority lapses. (5) The Government Accountability Office affirmed in a legal opinion on December 10, 2018 that, the ICA does not permit the withholding of funds through their date of expiration and requires that budget authority be made available in sufficient time to be prudently obligated . (b) Purpose The purpose of this section, and the amendment made by this section, is to provide increased fiscal transparency and expand upon the existing requirements under the Impoundment Control Act of 1974 ( 2 U.S.C. 681 et seq.) to make budget authority prudently available for obligation.
