Beginning with the budget for fiscal year 2016, not later than 24 hours after the date on which the President submits the budget under section 1105 of title 31, United States Code, the Director of the Office of Management and Budget shall make all budget justifications available online in a searchable, sortable, machine readable, and downloadable format and any electronic version of the budget shall provide a link to each budget justification by the Office of Management and Budget.
As used in this section, the term budget justifications refers to the documents an agency submits to the Committees on Appropriations of the House of Representatives and Senate in support of its budget request. The Office of Management and Budget prescribes justification materials, which typically explain changes between the current appropriations and the amounts requested for the next fiscal year and may be referred to in the budget submission of the President under section 1105(a) of title 31, United States Code.
