Gov Track: U.S. Senator Jeff Sessions- 'Honest Budget Act'

Source:The Cannabis Advisory- U.S. Senator Jeff Sessions (Republican, Alabama) Ranking Member of the Budget Committee.

"In the Senate, it shall not be in order to consider any bill, joint resolution, or conference report that designates as an emergency requirement, pursuant to section 403 of S. Con. Res. 13 (110th Congress, the FY 2010 Budget Resolution), section 4(g) of the Statutory Pay-As-You-Go Act of 2010, or section 251(b)(2)(A)(i) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 any provision that creates discretionary or direct spending or decreases revenues." 

From Gov Track

I know people must be dying from sunburn in Greenland right now, because I actually agree with Senator Jeff Sessions (Republican, Alabama, Ranking Member of the Budget Committee) on something, finally. 

If you passed Senator Sessions bill in Congress, Congress would then no longer be able to pass appropriations bills, until the House and Senate first passed a budget. Which would end the annual omnibus spending bills that Congress passes every year and the President signs, just to keep the government open, where every wish list that a member of Congress has, is thrown into the annual omnibus bill, with no Congressional hearing on it and of course it isn't paid for.
