What the document says
“each department and agency in subsection (c) shall submit to the Committees on Appropriations of the House of Representatives and the Senate a spending, expenditure, or operating plan for fiscal year 2025--”
Section 1113 requires a spending, expenditure or operating plan within 45 days of enactment, at the program, project or activity level, or at any greater level of detail an appropriations Act or its joint explanatory statement required. Subsection (b) says the plan must reflect a sequestration if the President orders one under section 254 of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985. Subsection (c) lists the thirty-five departments and agencies that must file, from the Department of Agriculture through the Architect of the Capitol.
What the document actually says
“each department and agency in subsection (c) shall submit to the Committees on Appropriations of the House of Representatives and the Senate a spending, expenditure, or operating plan for fiscal year 2025--”
That sentence, in plain words
Each listed agency must hand in a spending plan. It goes to the money committees in both chambers.
What this is about
The plan says what each dollar is for. It is due 45 days after the law passed. Thirty-five agencies are on the list.

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
