Counsel Notes
PRIOR LEgislation
All of the Bipartisan Budget Acts were included in broader omnibus bills of varying kinds. The BBA 2013 (Pub. L. 113-67) was reminiscent of a reconciliation bill since it emanated from negotiations between the House and Senate Budget Chairmen after conference meetings were held on a concurrent resolution on the budget. BBA 2015 was part of a broader debt increase bill, while BBA 2018 (Pub. L. 115-123) was an omnibus appropriations Act. Each included provisions reducing direct spending that at least in part were intended to offset the increase in discretionary spending, with varying degrees of success.
To see the context in which the BBA 2019 was enacted, see the Budget Control Act and Its Progeny.
