Dollar-for-Dollar Deficit Reduction Act

March 1, 2023

Summary

This bill would require any increase or suspension of the federal debt limit to be accompanied by equal or greater net spending reductions over the current and next 10 fiscal years. It establishes points of order in both chambers against debt limit legislation that lacks such offsetting cuts, waivable in the Senate only by a three-fifths supermajority. Interest savings and timing gimmicks are excluded from the savings calculation.
