house 01/03/2025 - 119th Congress
We are proposing an amendment to the U.S. Constitution to ensure a balanced federal budget every year, limiting spending to 18% of GDP unless exceptions are approved by Congress. This aims to promote fiscal responsibility, requiring two-thirds approval in Congress for any budget excess or tax increases, with allowances for wartime or serious national security threats.
