{"product_id":"2940015896541","title":"The Federal Budget Process","description":"Budgeting for the federal government is an enormously complex process. It entails dozens of subprocesses, countless rules and procedures, the efforts of tens of thousands of staff persons in the executive and legislative branches, and the active participation of the President, congressional leaders, Members of Congress, and members of the executive branch. This analysis shows the various elements of the federal budget process including the President's budget submission, framework, timetable, the budget resolution, reconciliation, the \"Byrd Rule,\" appropriations, authorizations, and budget execution.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCongress is distinguished from nearly every other legislature in the world by the control it exercises over fashioning the government's budgetary policies. This power, referred to as \"the power of the purse,\" ensures Congress' primary role in setting revenue and borrowing policies for the federal government and in determining how these resources are spent.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSUMMARY OF CONTENTS\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCh. 1.
