When operating under Continuing Resolution Authority and government agencies?

When operating under Continuing Resolution Authority (CRA), government agencies are allowed to continue functioning at the previous fiscal year's funding levels, ensuring that essential services and operations remain uninterrupted despite the absence of a new budget. However, this can limit agencies' ability to initiate new programs or make significant changes to existing ones. Additionally, the CRA often imposes restrictions on funding allocations, requiring agencies to prioritize existing commitments. Ultimately, while CRA provides temporary funding stability, it can hinder long-term planning and growth.
