Title: Pay-As-You-Go Procedures for Budget Enforcement
Authors: Robert Keith, Government and Finance Division 
Abstract: At present, the House and Senate each have their own PAYGO rules, but the statutory procedures that existed for more than a decade effectively were terminated in late 2002. Efforts to restore the statutory PAYGO procedures so far have been unsuccessful, but calls to restore them may be renewed in the 111th Congress.
