Summary
The Prevent Government Shutdowns Act of 2026 adds a new section to the U.S. Code that automatically provides continuing appropriations for any program that loses its full‑year funding, using the prior year’s funding level. The temporary funding lasts for 14‑day periods and is extended in 14‑day increments until a new appropriations bill is enacted. It aims to avoid shutdowns by ensuring essential services keep operating while Congress finalizes funding.
