Please note that a lapse in appropriated funds has caused CBO to largely shut down its operations. The only CBO people who are working are those who are analyzing legislation being actively considered by the Congress during the shutdown or who are necessary to support that analysis. Consequently, information on this portion of the website will not be routinely updated, the information submitted via the website will not be processed, and CBO will not be able to respond until funding has been restored.
