C.3. Mandatory Government Funding

Congress must enact all spending bills funding the operations of the federal government for the subsequent fiscal year, no later than September 30 of each year.

Failure to meet this requirement shall result in the immediate and permanent disqualification of every sitting Representative and Senator from election or appointment to any federal office, whether legislative, executive, or judicial.

Bills funding the government for the fiscal year are not subject to a Presidential veto.
