Borrowing authority is spending authority [http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Backdoor_spending_authority&diff=prev&oldid=1028686].

==Statutory basis==
The new material added in the past hour discusses "Section 401(d)" but I can't find that provision. Could we please agree to include citations to the US Code and perhaps links to the gpo or www.law.cornell.edu website so that readers can follow the discussion and read each law for himself?
