To the Congress of the United States:
    In accordance with section 202(c) of the District of 
Columbia Financial Responsibility and Management Assistance Act 
of 1995, I am transmitting the District of Columbia's Fiscal 
Year 1999 Budget Request Act.
    This proposed Fiscal Year 1999 Budget represents the major 
programmatic objectives of the Mayor, the Council of the 
District of Columbia, and the District of Columbia Financial 
Responsibility and Management Assistance Authority. It also 
meets the financial stability and management improvement 
objectives of the National Capital Revitalization and Self-
Government Improvement Act of 1997. For Fiscal Year 1999, the 
District estimates revenues of $5.230 billion and total 
expenditures of $5.189 billion resulting in a $41 million 
budget surplus.
    My transmittal of the District of Columbia's budget, as 
required by law, does not represent an endorsement of its 
contents.

                                                William J. Clinton.
    The White House, July 28, 1998.
