Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from S. 1434, Biennial Budgeting Act of 1995: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Financial Management and Accountability of the Committee on Governmental Affairs, United States Senate, One Hundred Fourth Congress, Second Session
As anyone who has followed Congress over the years knows, nei ther one of these proposals is new. Those of us who are making a renewed push for their enactment do not pretend to be the first Members of Congress seeking to improve Congress' effectiveness and responsiveness. However, I do think we can safely say that we hope we do not let these proposals languish as they have in the past. Today, we will begin creating the record for legislative action that I hope will occur early in the next Congress.
Surely, after our experience with the budget process over the last year-and-a-half, many, if not most, in Congress would agree that biennial budgeting is an idea whose time has finally come. NO sooner did we finish work on the fiscal 1996 budget, then we had to start work on the budget for fiscal year 1997.
