Between FY1 996 and FY2023, the legislative branch experienced three funding gaps; see below. Note that the first date is the final date of budget authority (budget authority expired at the end of that day) prior to a gap, and the second date is the day the gap was terminated by the enactment of a continuing resolution or one or more regular appropriations acts: FY1996, between November 13 and 19, 1995 (5 full days). Legislative branch appropriations were enacted after this funding gap and before the subsequent 21-day lapse in appropriations that impacted some other portions of the federal government. FY2014, between September 30 and October 17, 2013 (16 full days). Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov IN12259 CRS INSIGHT Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress
