Require congressional accountability for budgets and spending bills

Wittman has authored and repeatedly introduced measures to tie congressional pay to completing budget and spending work. The No Budget, No Pay Act withholds Members’ pay if Congress fails to pass a budget on time; the Inaction Has Consequences Act does so if Congress fails to pass all 12 regular appropriations bills by the end of the fiscal year. His S.O.S. resolution would keep the House in Washington instead of taking its August recess if all 12 annual appropriations bills have not passed.

Context: These are legislative proposals described as repeatedly introduced and still being pushed; the passage does not say they became law.

In their own words

I have authored, repeatedly introduced, and continue to push forward legislation to hold Congress accountable:
