Sets forth a formula for determining authorized appropriations for subsequent fiscal years. Title II: Congressional Authority - Waives the period of congressional review required before District of Columbia Acts take effect. Revises the authority of the Congress to enact legislation that amends or repeals such Acts. Repeals certain rules governing congressional consideration of District of Columbia Council actions. Title III: Budget Autonomy - District of Columbia Budget Autonomy Act - Makes budget provisions that are disapproved by the Mayor, but reenacted by two-thirds of the Council or not resubmitted to the Council in a timely manner, part of the budget Act without their transmittal to the President.
