Original Note:
The graph shows impact of the Fiscal Responsibility Act on discretionary spending only. Mandatory spending & interest make up most federal outlays (3x higher than discretionary) and were not substantively changed by the Act (or shown in this chart). https://www.cbo.gov/system/files/2023-02/58848-Outlook.pdf, Table 1-1 https://www.cbo.gov/system/files/2023-05/hr3746_Letter_McCarthy.pdf, Table 1
