Referred to the House Committee on the Budget.
This resolution, if adopted by the House, immediately removes the Director of the Congressional Budget Office under the authority the resolution cites. It is a House-only action that directs removal of the CBO Director pursuant to the governing statute referenced in the text. It is an internal congressional action rather than a public law enacted by both chambers and the President.
Congressional Budget Office (CBO)
This is a simple House resolution: it only requires action by the House of Representatives and is not sent to the Senate or the President. Its practical effect depends on the statutory removal authority the resolution invokes.
H.Res.1006 is a House resolution that orders the immediate removal of the Director of the Congressional Budget Office.
It cites section 201(a)(4) of the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974 (2 U.S.C. 601(a)(4)).
The resolution contains no additional findings, reasons, or appointment language.
Narrow and administrable but highly politicized with no compromise features; passage hinges on a House majority and legal/constitutional questions that could provoke challenge.
Relative to its intended legislative type, this bill is a narrowly focused administrative resolution that clearly states the action and cites the statutory authority, but it provides minimal procedural or follow-up detail.
