In [[government]], rescission is the cancellation of budget authority previously provided by [[Congress]]. The [[Impoundment Control Act of 1947]] specifies that the [[POTUS|President]] may propose to Congress that funds be rescinded. If both Houses have not approved a rescission proposal (by passing legislation) within 45 days of continuous session, any funds must be made available for obligation.
