Title: Eliminate Shutdowns Act

Vote Smart's Synopsis:

Vote to invoke cloture on a bill that authorizes and provides for automatic continuing appropriations.

Highlights:

  • Authorizes and provides for automatic continuing appropriations (Sec. 1-3).

  • Specifies that the appropriations and authority granted under this act shall be available for a period of 14 calendar days (Sec. 1-3).

  • Requires these appropriations to not lapse and be extended for 14 days to remain available if the aforementioned 14 days expire (Sec. 1-3). 

  • Specifies that the provisions of this bill shall take effect September 30, 2025 (Sec. 4).

NOTE: INVOKING CLOTURE REQUIRES A 3/5 MAJORITY OF THE SENATE. IT IS NOT A VOTE ON THE PASSAGE OF THE PIECE OF LEGISLATION, BUT LIMITS FURTHER DEBATE TO 30 HOURS. CLOTURE IS TYPICALLY USED TO END A FILIBUSTER. A FAILED CLOTURE VOTE OFTEN PREVENTS THE LEGISLATION FROM EVER COMING TO A VOTE.
