Former Senator Gramm argues budget fixes could ease by repealing a 1921 provision. He notes a 3 judge panel warned that exact agency cut calculations would empower the comptroller beyond typical legislative scope. He mentions a fallback bill clause or amending the Budget and Accounting Act of 1921 to remove the comptroller.

Gramm Rudman budget cuts and Supreme Court leaks
Gramm criticized the 1921 IA provision as creating a separation of powers issue. In 1978 ABC leaked two weeks of Supreme Court reports including a NY case about access to pretrial hearings. The court ruled the press and public have no right to attend such hearings. A print shop employee was reassigned after the leaks. The first Gramm Rudman deficit cut was $11.7 million, effective March 1, with this year's deficit above $200 billion.
