Subjects: LEGISLATIVE HISTORY The controversial bipartisan budget deal was intended to eliminate the possibility of another damaging government shutdown for the next two years, and contained a mixture of cost-cutting and revenue-raising measures. It rolled back some of the notorious "sequester" cuts that had gone into effect in January 2013 and provided government agencies with an extra $63 billion over the next two years. The budget deal drew severe criticism from all sides of the political spectrum, for differing reasons. This compilation contains the text of the Act, the versions of H.J. Resolution 59, congressional debate, presidential remarks, related resolutions and bills, related reports, and several other documents.
