Imagine there's a big book where adults keep track of all the money the government plans to spend; this bill wants them to update that book more often to make sure the numbers are right and share those updates with everyone. It also asks the President to send an important message by February 1 each year with the latest money details to help make good plans.

H. R. 9716 is a plan that says two times a year, the people who watch over the country's money must tell everyone how much money they think will be needed. Plus, once a year, the President has to share important numbers about the country's money with Congress, like a report card.

The "Increasing Baseline Updates Act" is a plan to make sure that the people who help figure out how much money the government can spend give their estimates twice a year, and it asks the President to share all the important numbers about the budget with Congress by February 1st each year.
