Setting forth the congressional budget for the United States Government for fiscal year 2026 and setting forth the appropriate budgetary levels for fiscal years 2027 through 2035.

This measure sets a budget roadmap for the federal government. It lays out targets for how much money the government plans to bring in and spend in 2026, and gives guideposts for 2027–2035. It also includes rules for how Congress enforces these targets, such as handling emergency bills and using cost estimates. It allows special “reserve funds” so Congress can adjust numbers if it passes bills that cut costs through efficiencies or expand health savings accounts. It also sets levels used to enforce the Senate’s budget rules for Social Security and Postal Service administrative costs .

What this means for most people: it doesn’t change your taxes or benefits by itself. Instead, it’s the framework lawmakers will use when writing future tax and spending bills. Those later bills are what could affect programs, deficits, and debt .

• Who is affected: Congress and federal agencies directly; taxpayers and communities indirectly as future bills follow these targets .
• What changes: sets revenue, spending, deficit, and debt targets; creates reserve funds for efficiency savings and health savings accounts; sets enforcement rules (like points of order and emergency legislation handling) .
• When: main targets for fiscal year 2026, with additional guideposts through 2035 .
