A bill to provide for continuing appropriations for any purpose or function when funds are not available on the first day of any fiscal year for such purpose or function.

Summary

Appropriates sums necessary to continue any Federal purpose or function which is not funded on the first day of any fiscal year if such purpose or function was funded during the previous fiscal year. Stipulates that the level of funding may not exceed that applicable on the last day of the previous fiscal year. Declares that such continuing appropriations shall remain available for one fiscal year or: (1) the enactment of an appropriation for such purpose or function; or (2) the enactment of a general appropriation for the applicable department or agency without providing for such purpose or function. Makes such continuing appropriations available without regard to certain time limitations for submission and approval of apportionments required by law. States that while such continuing appropriations are available they shall cover all expenditures related to such purpose or function. Charges expenditures made under this Act to the applicable fund or authorization once legislation is enacted providing such an account.
