Summary

Expedited Rescissions Act of 1999 - Amends the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974 to authorize the President, in addition to the existing method of proposing rescissions under such Act, to propose the expedited rescission of any budget authority provided in an appropriation Act or of any limited tax benefit set forth in any revenue Act. Authorizes the President to transmit a draft bill to Congress with such a proposal that clearly identifies the budget authority proposed to be rescinded from each program, project, or activity funded by that Act. Authorizes submission of a draft bill that would rescind limited tax benefits as well. Sets forth procedures for the identification of limited tax benefits. Establishes expedited procedures in the Senate and the House of Representatives for consideration of the draft bill. Authorizes the President to defer the obligation of budget authority subject to rescission or the implementation of any limited tax benefit subject to rescission but only if a special message requesting such rescission has been transmitted to Congress. Sets forth deadlines for the release of deferred obligations. Bars any budget authority or limited tax benefit proposed for rescission from being proposed for rescission under the Act more than once.
