Even 30+ years ago, when I worked for the government, that was the unwritten rule, and you were in deep water if you failed to carry it out.

If that is occurring, it's a failure at the highest levels of that agency.

You do NOT "lose" funding that you don't use. It's been YEARS since individual agency budgets were based on prior year budgets. If any agency hasn't spent weeks preparing a spending plan that justified every dollar requested (compared to mission requirements), then that agency needs to be completely de-funded until they do.

Yes, I'm a budget geek with a federal agency. Yes, I spend weeks justifying every damn thing in my annual request. Yes, even though I get everything I ask for (good justifications help!), I still end up with unexpended funds that I willingly return to higher authority.

And of course... THEY take the conferences.
