What the document says

“Such amounts as may be necessary, at a rate for operations as provided in the applicable appropriations Acts for fiscal year 2025 and under the authority and conditions provided in such Acts, for continuing projects or activities (including the costs of direct loans and loan guarantees) that are not otherwise specifically provided for in this Act, that were conducted in fiscal year 2025”

Making continuing appropriations and extensions for fiscal year 2026, and for other purposes, Sec. 5

This is the core of a continuing resolution. Section 101 of division A funds anything that ran in fiscal year 2025 at the 2025 rate and on the 2025 terms, except what divisions B through D fund separately. It lists exceptions, among them several sections of division A of Public Law 119-4 and provisions of Public Law 118-42 and Public Law 118-47 that it declines to carry forward.

What the document actually says

“Such amounts as may be necessary, at a rate for operations as provided in the applicable appropriations Acts for fiscal year 2025 and under the authority and conditions provided in such Acts, for continuing projects or activities (including the costs of direct loans and loan guarantees) that are not otherwise specifically provided for in this Act, that were conducted in fiscal year 2025”

That sentence, in plain words

Work that was paid for last year keeps its money. It runs at the same rate and under the same rules.

What this is about

Congress did not finish most of its yearly spending bills. So it said: keep doing what you did last year. Spend at last year's rate.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
