Quiver AI Summary
Bill introduced in Congress: Rep. Keith Self (TX-03) said he introduced the Super Pay-As-You-Go Act, a bill aimed at strengthening the 2010 PAYGO law. The proposal would require new spending or revenue cuts to be offset by savings equal to at least twice the cost.
Key changes outlined: The press release says the bill would tighten emergency exemptions, require standalone votes on PAYGO waivers, and create additional congressional and budget-office checks. It would also call for automatic spending cuts if a deficit remains and for annual public reporting by OMB.
Self’s statement: Self said Washington has been “spending money it doesn’t have” and argued the measure would restore fiscal discipline. The release says Social Security, veterans’ benefits and Medicaid would remain protected from automatic sequestration.
