Synopsis

Understand what a government shutdown could mean for services, payments, and the economy.

The hearing examines plans and possible outcomes if Congress and the White House cannot complete funding for the new fiscal year. It covers the use of continuing resolutions, the Anti-Deficiency Act, and how the debt limit could influence what the government can still do. The discussion highlights who stays open, what gets shut down, and how essential needs like health and safety are handled in a funding shortfall.

Key areas of focus include:

• How a continuing resolution works and when it might be used versus full appropriations.


• Which programs and services would continue and which might pause during a funding gap.


• The impact on federal workers, benefits like Social Security, and the timing of payments.


• How the debt ceiling interacts with budget plans and the risk of default or cash shortfalls.

Ideal for readers seeking a clear, practical overview of budgeting, shutdown risks, and the political process behind funding the federal government.

OPENING STATEMENT OF CHAIRMAN KASICH Chairman KASICH. Since we have a bipartisan contingent here, why dont we go ahead and get started. Bill Orton will be the ranking Democrat here, and hopefully Mr. Sabo is on his way. I think the Senate is tied up with votes. A nyway, I want to welcome the witnesses here this morning. Director Rivlin and Mr. Dellinger, no relation, I take it, to the famous Dellinger. Mr. Dellinger. No, sir, but my wife worked a bit at the FBI and she heard a lot about that. Chairman Kasich. A nyway, the purpose of the hearing this morning is to talk about what plans we have and what the schedule is and what are some of the potential scenarios of two separate events that will occur. One, of course, is the October 1st deadline on our appropriations bills. Let me just for a second, Director, tell you where we are on that. As you know, the House and the Senate are trying to resolve as many differences in a conference committee with the appropriations bills and we will get as many as practical to the President by the deadline. For those that have not yet been completed, Chairman Livingston is currently working on a CR, a continuing resolution for those that do not know all the terms, the way in which we would fund the level of government until all the appropriations bil
