Congressional Budget Office Scheduling Reform Act

This bill requires the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) to annually publish a schedule of the expected publication dates of its major recurring reports.

The schedule must must include, at a minimum, the expected publication dates for

• the baseline for the budget year and subsequent updates,

• the report on options to reduce the deficit,

• the report on the accuracy of budgetary projections for the most recently completed fiscal year, and

• the report on programs or activities with unauthorized appropriations.

CBO must (1) publish the schedule on its public website no later than December 31 of each year, and (2) update the schedule during the following calendar year as necessary.
