Summary

Renames the Congressional Budget Office to the "China Budget Office" and directs that every existing statutory, regulatory, or official reference to the Congressional Budget Office be treated as referring to the new name. The measure consists solely of this renaming instruction and does not change the agency’s functions, budget authority, or duties as written. The immediate practical effects are legal and administrative: all laws, rules, regulations, directives, and official documents that mention the Congressional Budget Office would, by this measure, be read as if they named the agency the China Budget Office. This would create paperwork changes, potential confusion for users of CBO products, and likely political and legal controversy without altering program funding or responsibilities.

• Changes only the name: the Congressional Budget Office would be called the "China Budget Office."
• All existing statutory and regulatory references to the Congressional Budget Office would be legally read as references to the new name.
• No changes to duties, authorities, or funding are specified in the text provided.
• Would require administrative updates across federal documents, websites, and communications.
• Could cause legal and practical confusion because past citations and references will now point to a different name.
• Likely to generate political and public controversy because the new name ties the agency to a foreign country in law.
• No implementation timeline or funding to cover transition costs is specified.
• Applies broadly to statutes, regulations, directives, and other official papers in force on enactment.
