No Bias in the Baseline Act

Summary

The No Bias in the Baseline Act changes the way the federal budget baseline is calculated, tying it strictly to existing laws and the continuation of current discretionary appropriations while leaving out emergency or supplemental resources and any inflation adjustments. It also requires the Congressional Budget Office to publish alternative fiscal scenarios in its budget reports. The goal is to create a clearer, less assumption‑driven baseline for budgeting decisions.
