IV 111th CONGRESS 2d Session H. RES. 1469 IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES June 23, 2010 Mr. Campbell submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Rules RESOLUTION Providing that the House of Representatives should pass a budget resolution for a fiscal year before the House considers any appropriation bill for that year.

Whereas the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 provides for the annual adoption of a concurrent resolution on the budget; Whereas the congressional budget timetable sets April 15 as a target date for completing action on annual budget resolutions; Whereas the budget resolution provides Congress a framework for subsequent legislative action on budgetary matters during each session of Congress; and Whereas the House of Representatives has passed at least one budget resolution every year since 1976: Now, therefore, be it

That it is the sense of the House that before Congress considers any appropriation bill for a particular a fiscal year, the House of Representatives should first pass a budget resolution for that year.
