                              Introduction

                              ----------                              


    On December 18, 2013, Congress passed House Joint 
Resolution 59, which included two Acts: the ``Bipartisan Budget 
Act of 2013'' and the ``Pathway for SGR Reform Act of 2013''. 
It was signed by President Barack Obama on December 26, 2013 
and became Public Law 113-67. This Committee Print explains and 
provides background and explanatory information on this law. In 
doing so, this document primarily concentrates on ``The 
Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013'' which can be found in Division 
A of the Joint Resolution.
    The House adopted House Concurrent Resolution 25, the 
concurrent resolution on the budget for fiscal year 2014, on 
March 21, 2013. The Senate adopted its version of the budget 
resolution, Senate Concurrent Resolution 8, on March 23, 2013.
    A conference committee on these two concurrent resolutions 
was agreed to with Senate Concurrent Resolution 8 as the 
measure on which the two Houses disagreed. Representative Paul 
Ryan, Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the House, 
acted as the Chairman of this conference. He did so by 
tradition, since each Chairman of the Committee on the Budget 
of each House alternates as Chair of the Committee of 
Conference on a budget resolution. The previous time a budget 
resolution conference was held, Senator Kent Conrad, Chairman 
of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate, chaired. Senator 
Patty Murray, Senate Budget Committee Chairman, co-chaired the 
conference on S. Con. Res. 8.
    During the negotiations, Chairman Ryan and Chairman Murray 
decided to pursue legislation that would make changes in law to 
modify discretionary caps on spending and to make other 
reductions in spending. Since this would require changes in 
existing law, a concurrent resolution would not be appropriate 
since it is an internal Congressional document, is not signed 
by the President, and does not become law. It was decided the 
vehicle to accomplish this would be to use House Joint 
Resolution 59, originally a spending measure.
    Chairman Ryan offered a motion to amend this Joint 
Resolution on the House floor with the legislative text the two 
Chairmen had developed on behalf of their respective chambers. 
Before coming to the floor, though, the Committee on Rules of 
the House added additional language to the agreement which 
became Division B of the joint resolution, titled ``Pathway for 
SGR Reform Act of 2013''.
    The motion passed and the joint resolution, as amended, was 
sent to the Senate, where it passed, and then presented to the 
President who signed it on December 26, 2013.
    It was subsequently amended by the ``Consolidated 
Appropriations Act, Fiscal Year 2014'' (Public Law 113-76).


                          Legislative History

                              ----------                              


    During the first session of the 113th Congress, the House 
and Senate each passed a fiscal year 2014 concurrent resolution 
on the budget: House Concurrent Resolution 25 and Senate 
Concurrent Resolution 8, respectively. The House requested a 
conference on S. Con. Res. 8, the fiscal year 2014 concurrent 
resolution on the budget, to which the Senate agreed. 
Representative Paul Ryan (WI) chaired the Committee on the 
Conference on the budget resolution.
    The Conference Committee held two meetings: the first on 
October 30, 2013 and the second on November 13, 2013.
    The Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013 (BBA of 2013) was a House 
amendment to the Senate amendment to House Joint Resolution 59. 
This House amendment included legislation establishing a budget 
resolution for fiscal year 2014, authorized a budget resolution 
for fiscal year 2015, and made other changes in law.
House Concurrent Resolution 25
    On March 13, 2013, the House Committee on the Budget marked 
up the fiscal year 2014 concurrent resolution on the budget, H. 
Con. Res. 25. The report accompanying H. Con. Res. 25, House 
Report 113-17, was filed on March 15, 2013. The House 
considered H. Con. Res. 25 on March 19 through March 21, 2013. 
H. Con. Res. 25 passed the House on March 21, 2013, by a vote 
of 221-207 (Roll No. 88). On March 22, 2013, the House-passed 
fiscal year 2014 concurrent resolution on the budget was 
received in the Senate.
    On October 16, 2013, Mr. Ryan (WI) asked unanimous consent 
the House take from the Speaker's table S. Con. Res. 8; adopt 
an amendment in the nature of a substitute consisting of the 
text of H. Con. Res. 25, as adopted by the House; adopt such 
concurrent resolution, as amended; insist on its amendment; and 
request a conference with the Senate thereon; and during the 
remainder of the 113th Congress, that it would not be in order 
to offer a motion under clause 7(c) of rule 22 with respect to 
S. Con. Res. 8. This unanimous consent request was agreed to 
without objection. The Speaker then appointed conferees (see 
Appendix C).
Senate Concurrent Resolution 8
    On March 13 and 14, 2013, the Senate Committee on the 
Budget marked up the fiscal year 2014 concurrent resolution on 
the budget, S. Con. Res. 8. The Senate Committee on the Budget 
filed a committee print, S. Prt. 113-12, to accompany S. Con. 
Res. 8 in March 2013. The Senate considered S. Con. Res. 8 on 
March 20 through March 23, 2013. S. Con. Res. 8 passed the 
Senate on March 23, 2013. The resolution was agreed to in the 
Senate, as amended, by Yea-Nay Vote: 50-49 (Record Vote Number: 
92).
    On April 15, 2013, the Senate-passed fiscal year 2014 
concurrent resolution on the budget was received in the House.
    On October 16, 2013, the Senate disagreed to the House 
amendment to S. Con. Res. 8, agreed to the request for a 
conference on the fiscal year 2014 concurrent resolution on the 
budget, and appointed conferees. By Unanimous Consent, the 
Senate agreed that it would not be in order for the Senate to 
consider a conference report with respect to H. Con. Res. 25 or 
S. Con. Res. 8 if it included reconciliation instructions to 
raise the debt limit.
House Joint Resolution 59
    On September 10, 2013, Representative Rogers (KY) 
introduced House Joint Resolution 59, a continuing 
appropriations resolution for fiscal year 2014. On September 
20, 2013, House Joint Resolution 59 passed the House by 
recorded vote: 230-189 (Roll No. 478). The Senate then 
proceeded to consideration of the measure and on September 27, 
2013, House Joint Resolution 59 passed the Senate with an 
amendment by Yea-Nay Vote: 54-44 (Record Vote Number 209). 
House Joint Resolution 59 was then further considered and 
amended in the House and subsequently received in the Senate. A 
motion to table the House amendments to the Senate amendment 
was then made and agreed to in the Senate.
    On September 30, 2013, Mr. Rogers (KY) made a motion that 
the House recede and concur with an amendment in the Senate 
amendment. This motion was agreed to by recorded vote: 228-201 
(Roll No. 504). A motion to table the House amendment to the 
Senate amendment was then made and agreed to in the Senate by 
Yea-Nay Vote: 54-46 (Record Vote Number: 211).
    The House Committee on Rules reported a rule making it in 
order for the House to take House Joint Resolution 59 from the 
Speaker's table, with the House amendment to the Senate 
amendment thereto, insist on its amendment, and request a 
conference with the Senate thereon.
    On October 1, 2013, this rule passed the House and the 
Speaker appointed conferees for the consideration of the Senate 
amendment and the House amendment and modifications. A motion 
to table the message from the House with respect to House Joint 
Resolution 59 was then made and agreed to in the Senate by Yea-
Nay Vote: 54-46 (Record Vote Number: 212).
    On December 12, 2013, Mr. Ryan (WI) moved the House recede 
and concur with an amendment to the Senate amendment to House 
Joint Resolution 59. This amendment comprised the text of the 
Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013 (BBA of 2013). This motion was 
agreed to by recorded vote: 332-94 (Roll No. 640). The 
transcript of debate in the House of Representatives on this 
motion to recede and concur can be found on pages H8053-H8085 
of the Congressional Record (113th Congress).
    On December 15, 2013, the measure was laid before the 
Senate by unanimous consent and Senator Reid made a motion to 
concur in the House amendment to the Senate amendment.
    On December 17, 2013, a cloture motion on the motion to 
concur in the House amendment to the Senate amendment was 
agreed to: 67-33 (Record Vote Number: 279). A motion to table 
Senator Reid's motion to concur with an amendment was then made 
in the Senate. This motion to table was rejected by Yea-Nay 
Vote: 46-54 (Record Vote Number: 280). The Senate then 
proceeded to the consideration of the BBA of 2013 (the House 
amendment to the Senate amendment to House Joint Resolution 
59).
    On December 18, 2013, the Senate agreed to the House 
amendment to the Senate amendment to House Joint Resolution 59 
by Yea-Nay Vote. 64-36 (Record Vote Number: 281). The 
transcript of debate in the Senate can be found on pages S8816, 
S8870, S8872-8899, and S8920-8957 of the Congressional Record 
(113th Congress).
    The BBA of 2013 was presented to the President on December 
19, 2013, signed by the President on December 26, 2013, and 
became Public Law 113-67.
H.R. 3547
    On November 20, 2013, H.R. 3547 was introduced in the 
House. A House amendment to the Senate amendments to H.R. 3547 
incorporated the text of the Consolidated Appropriations Act 
for fiscal year 2014. That bill included an amendment to the 
BBA of 2013 pertaining to military retirement reform.
    On January 15, 2014, this House amendment to the Senate 
amendments was agreed to in the House by the Yeas and Nays: 
359-67 (Roll No. 21). The measure was then received in the 
Senate and laid before the Senate by unanimous consent.
    On January 16, 2014, cloture on the motion to concur in the 
House amendment to the Senate amendment was invoked in the 
Senate by Yea-Nay Vote: 72-26 (Record Vote Number: 12). The 
Senate then proceeded to concur in the House amendment to the 
Senate amendment by Yea-Nay Vote: 72-26 (Record Vote Number: 
13).
    On January 17, 2014, the Consolidated Appropriations Act 
for fiscal year 2014 was presented to and signed by the 
President and became Public Law 113-76.

                              ----------                              


Sec. 1. Short title and table of contents.
    Subsection 1(a) provides that the short title of this 
Division is the ``Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013''.
    Subsection 1(b) sets forth the table of contents for the 
Division.

                      Title I--Budget Enforcement

  SUBTITLE A--AMENDMENTS TO THE BALANCED BUDGET AND EMERGENCY DEFICIT 
                          CONTROL ACT OF 1985

Sec. 101. Amendments to the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit 
        Control Act of 1985.\1\
    The limits on discretionary spending are established in 
section 251(c) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit 
Control Act of 1985 (BBEDCA). The limits are subdivided in each 
fiscal year through 2021 into two categories: revised security 
category and revised nonsecurity category.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    \1\ On February 15, 2014, the President signed into law Public Law 
113-82, which among other things extends through 2024 the mandatory 
sequester under section 251A of the Balanced Budget and Emergency 
Control Act of 1985.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    The revised security category is defined to be the National 
Defense budget function (Function 050) which includes funding 
for the Department of Defense, the nuclear weapons-related work 
of the Department of Energy, intelligence-related activities, 
and the national security elements of the Departments of 
Commerce, Justice, Homeland Security, and several independent 
agencies. The Department of Defense (including the intelligence 
programs) usually receives over 95 percent of the budget 
authority in this function.
    The revised nonsecurity category comprises discretionary 
spending not contained in the revised security category.
    Subsection 101(a) amended section 251(c) of BBEDCA to 
increase the limits on discretionary spending for fiscal years 
2014 and 2015. The revised levels for each category are shown 
in Table 1.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In addition to the limits on discretionary spending, 
section 251A of BBEDCA also includes a sequester of direct 
spending, the size of which interacts with the discretionary 
spending levels.
    Subsection 101(b) provides for the implementation of the 
sequester of direct spending as if the amendments in subsection 
101(a) had not been made. The President is required by law to 
implement the sequester of direct spending ordered on April 10, 
2013 (as corrected on May 20, 2013) and the one in the 
Sequestration Preview Report for Fiscal Year 2015 as if the 
amendments in subsection 101(a) had not been made.
    Subsection 101(c) reduces spending by $28 billion by 
requiring the President to sequester the same percentage of 
direct spending in 2022 and 2023 as will be sequestered in 
2021.
    Subsection 101(d) makes various conforming changes.

            SUBTITLE B--ESTABLISHING A CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET

Sec. 111. Fiscal year 2014 budget resolution.
    Subsection 111(a) establishes a congressional budget for 
fiscal year 2014. It does so by authorizing the Chairman of the 
Committee on the Budget, Representative Paul Ryan (WI), to 
submit for publication in the Congressional Record the relevant 
levels for enforcing the budget resolution as a conference 
report. These levels are included in this print, and may be 
found on page H1428 (113th Congress) of the Congressional 
Record.
    Subsection 111(b) requires the Chairmen of the House and 
Senate Budget Committees to each submit for publication in the 
Congressional Record the allocations of budgetary resources for 
each congressional committee and aggregate spending and revenue 
levels.
    These levels are enforceable for fiscal year 2014 as if 
included in a conference agreement on a budget resolution for 
that fiscal year. Consistent with the different requirements of 
the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 in the House and Senate, 
the Chairman of the Senate Committee on the Budget also 
published levels of revenues and outlays for Social Security. 
These levels may be found on page S361 (113th Congress) of the 
Congressional Record, as well as in Table 10 of this print.
    The submissions made pursuant to this section are 
consistent with the discretionary spending limits established 
in this Act and the Congressional Budget Office's May 2013 
baseline, adjusted for legislation enacted subsequent to the 
publication of that baseline and adjusted for the budgetary 
effects of this Act.
    In addition, subsection 111(c) provides that in the House, 
the Chairman of the Budget Committee is authorized to reduce 
the aggregates, allocations, and other budgetary levels 
included in the statement required to be submitted pursuant to 
this section for the subsequent enactment of any additional 
deficit-reducing legislation during the 113th Congress.
Sec. 112. Limitation on advance appropriations in the Senate.
    Section 112 provides that a vote of sixty votes would be 
required to waive a point of order in the Senate against 
appropriations in 2014 bills that would first become effective 
in any year after 2014, and against appropriations in 2015 
bills that would first become effective in any year after 2015. 
It does not apply against appropriations for veterans' medical 
services, medical support and compliance, or medical 
facilities, or the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. 
Additionally, there is an exemption for each of 2015 and 2016 
of up to $28.852 billion for programs identified in the 
Congressional Record. Those programs are:

Sec. 113. Rule of construction in the House of Representatives.
    Section 113 provides that H. Con. Res. 25 (113th Congress), 
the budget resolution for fiscal year 2014 as placed in force 
by H. Res. 243 (113th Congress), remains in force to the extent 
that its budgetary levels have not been superseded by this 
subtitle or further action of the House. Items that remain in 
force include the recommended levels contained in Title III, 
the reserve funds in Title IV, the estimates of direct spending 
in Title V, the budget enforcement matters in Title VI, and the 
policy statements in title VII of that concurrent resolution. 
This matter will remain in force until the adoption of a 
subsequent concurrent resolution on the budget or the end of 
the 113th Congress, unless they are carried into the 114th 
Congress by an act of the House.
Sec. 114. Additional Senate budget enforcement.
    Subsection 114(a) provides for the elimination of any 
balances on the Senate pay-as-you-go scorecard following 
enactment of this Act and again for purposes of budget year 
2015.
    Subsection 114(b) provides for the continuance in effect of 
certain provisions of the fiscal year 2010 budget resolution 
relating to the budgetary treatment of certain discretionary 
expenses of certain off-budget programs; the application and 
effect of changes in allocations and aggregates; and 
adjustments to reflect changes in concepts and definitions.
    Subsection 114(c) establishes in the Senate only a deficit 
neutral reserve fund to replace sequestration.
    Subsection 114(d) places into effect certain deficit-
neutral reserve funds included in S. Con. Res. 8 (113th 
Congress). Those provisions are listed in table 2.

budget resolution.
    Subsection 115(c) provides that the submission pursuant to 
subsection (b) may also include for fiscal year 2015, 
provisions for the matters contained in title IV (reserve 
funds) and in sections 603(a), 605(a), and 609 of H. Con. Res.

the new budget window, including updated amounts for section 
601 (advance appropriations).
    Subsection 115(d) provides for an allocation of budgetary 
resources to the Appropriations Committee no later than May 15, 
2014 if the May 15 date required by the above subsection (b) 
has not been met.
    Subsection 115(e) allows the Chairman of the House Budget 
Committee to reduce the aggregates, allocations, and other

    Subsection 115(f) provides that the provisions of 
subsections (a), (b), (c), (d), and (e) shall no longer apply 
if a concurrent resolution on the budget for fiscal year 2015 
is agreed to by the House and the Senate.
Sec. 116. Authority for fiscal year 2015 budget resolution in the 
        Senate.
    Subsection 116(a) authorizes in the Senate a congressional 
budget for fiscal year 2015.
    Subsection 116(b) provides that the chair of the Senate 
Committee on the Budget will submit after April 15 and no later 
than May 15, 2014 for publication in the Congressional Record 
allocations of budgetary resources for each congressional 
committee, aggregate spending and revenue levels, and levels of 
revenues and outlays for Social Security that will be 
enforceable as if included in a conference agreement on a 
budget resolution.
    Subsection 116(c) provides that the submission pursuant to 
subsection (b) may also include reserve funds for fiscal year 
2015 that are the same as those included in section 114(c) and 
(d) updated to cover the new budget window.
    Subsection 116(d) provides that the filing referred to in 
subsection (b) for fiscal year 2014 will supersede the 
statement referred to in section 111(b).
    Subsection 116(e) provides that this section will expire if 
a concurrent resolution on the budget for fiscal year 2015 is 
agreed to by the Senate and the House.
Sec. 117. Exclusion of savings from PAYGO scorecards.
    Subsection 117(a) provided that the budgetary effects of 
this Act will not be entered on either PAYGO scorecard 
maintained pursuant to section 4(d) of the Statutory Pay-As-
You-Go Act of 2010 (Public Law 111-139).
    Subsection 117(b) provided that the budgetary effects of

    This section corrects technical and grammatical errors in 
the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985.
Sec. 122. Technical corrections to the Congressional Budget Act of 
        1974.
    This section corrects technical and grammatical errors in 
the Congressional Budget Act of 1974.

            Title II--Prevention of Waste, Fraud, and Abuse

Sec. 201. Improving the collection of unemployment insurance 
        overpayments.
    Many states used the Treasury Offset Program (TOP) to 
recover Unemployment Insurance (UI) debts stemming from 
overpayments due to fraud or failure to report earnings. 
However, other states are not using this tool. Section 201 
amended the Social Security Act to require states to use TOP to 
recover the specified UI debts. States are still required to 
provide due process opportunities for individuals to challenge 
the validity of the debt, before seeking to recover the funds 
through TOP. This section ensures that all states will 
participate in TOP leading to more recovery of UI debts.
Sec. 202. Strengthening Medicaid Third-Party Liability.
    By law, Medicaid is the payer of last resort for medical 
treatment. Section 202 affirms Medicaid's position as the payer 
of last resort by strengthening third-party liability to 
improve states' and providers' abilities to receive payments 
for beneficiary services, as appropriate.
    Subsection 202(a) allows states to delay payment of costs 
for prenatal and preventive pediatric claims when third parties 
are responsible and allows states to collect medical child 
support where health insurance is available from a non-
custodial parent. This authorization is limited to the extent 
that beneficiary access to care is not negatively impacted.
    Subsection 202(b) allows Medicaid to recover costs from 
beneficiary liability settlements. Subsection 202(c) provides 
that these amendments shall take effect on October 1, 2014.
Sec. 203. Restriction on access to the death master file.
    The Death Master File (DMF) is a list of deceased 
individuals maintained by the Social Security Administration 
(SSA). The DMF contains the full name, Social Security Number, 
date of birth, and date of death for listed decedents, and it 
is updated weekly. This information is distributed through the 
Department of Commerce and is widely available on many websites 
for free or for a nominal fee.
    Section 203 establishes a program under which the Secretary 
of Commerce restricts access to the information contained on 
the DMF for a three-year period beginning on the date of the 
individual's death, except to persons who are certified under a 
program to be established by the Secretary of Commerce. Under 
the program, persons who have a fraud prevention interest or 
other legitimate need for the information and agree to maintain 
the information under safeguards similar to those required of 
Federal agencies that receive return information, as described 
in section 6103(p)(4) of title 26 of the United States Code, 
may apply for certification. The Secretary of Commerce reviews 
the eligibility of applicants, examines safeguards for 
protecting the information and conducts audits of certified 
entities to assure compliance with safeguards.
    As part of implementation of the required program, the 
Secretary of Commerce is required to establish and collect user 
fees sufficient to recover all costs associated with the 
certification program. The Secretary of Commerce is required to 
report both the total fees collected and the total costs of 
administering the certification program. The required report is 
to be submitted annually to both the Senate Committee on 
Finance and the House Committee on Ways and Means.
    A penalty of $1,000 for each disclosure or misuse of the 
information is imposed on any persons who improperly disclose 
the DMF information. A certified person in receipt of DMF 
information is responsible for any subsequent disclosure of 
such information. Even if the initial disclosure to a third 
party is appropriate, if that third party subsequently 
improperly discloses the information, the certified person is 
deemed to have also improperly disclosed the information.
    Thus, in a case in which the improper disclosure is made by 
a third party who received the information from a certified 
person, both the certified person and the person who improperly 
disclosed the information are subject to the penalty. The 
penalty may not exceed $250,000 per person for any calendar 
year, except in the case of willful disclosure. In such cases, 
the penalty is not limited.
    The provision also brings the DMF within the scope of the 
exemptions available under the Freedom of Information Act to 
ensure that Federal agencies do not disclose the information 
about deceased individuals maintained by SSA or contained in 
the DMF, except to recipients who are certified persons.
    Section 203 is effective 90 days after the date of 
enactment, except for the FOIA exemption, which is now 
effective.
Sec. 204. Identification of inmates requesting or receiving improper 
        payments.
    The Social Security Administration's (SSA) Prisoner Update 
Processing System (PUPS) contains all identifying information 
requested by the SSA and supplied by a reporting source, 
including the individual's name, Social Security number, date 
of birth, sex, date of conviction, date of confinement, inmate 
status code, and such other information as may be supplied or 
acquired by SSA during the suspension or reinstatement of 
retirement, survivors, or disability insurance benefits. PUPS 
contains Federal, State, and local prisoner data.
    Subsection 204(a) expands the information the prisons are 
required to report to SSA to include release dates, making the 
system more valuable to users.
    Subsection 204(b) authorizes the Commissioner of Social 
Security to transfer PUPS data to the Department of the 
Treasury on a regular basis, where it will be maintained for 
use by other Federal agencies. The PUPS data will help prevent 
prisoners from illegally receiving payments, such as 
unemployment compensation from the Department of Labor, and 
identify individuals who are filing fraudulent tax returns. 
This subsection also authorizes the use of PUPS data for 
research conducted by Federal and state agencies.
    Subsection 204(c) updated the authorizing legislation for 
the Do Not Pay Initiative to include a requirement for agencies 
to query PUPS prior to certifying a Federal payment or award.

                      Title III--Natural Resources

Sec. 301. Ultra-deepwater and unconventional natural gas and other 
        petroleum resources.
    The ultra-deepwater and unconventional natural gas and 
other petroleum resources program, which was created by the 
Energy Policy Act of 2005, is a public-private partnership that 
was designed to develop technologies to increase America's 
domestic oil and gas production and reduce U.S. dependency on 
foreign imports. The program utilizes a non-profit consortium 
to manage the research, established two federal advisory 
committees, and receives $50 million per year of funding. 
Section 301 repealed the ultra-deepwater oil and gas research 
and development program and rescinded the program's remaining 
funds.
Sec. 302. Amendment to the Mineral Leasing Act.
    Since 2010, states receiving significant payments from 
mineral development on Federal lands also share in the costs of 
administering the Federal mineral leases from which the revenue 
is generated. The states pay their share of the administrative 
costs in the form of a 2 percent deduction of monies paid to 
the states by the federal government. This deduction was 
scheduled to expire at the end fiscal year 2014. Section 302 
made this deduction permanent.
Sec. 303. Approval of agreement with Mexico.
    Section 303 approved the Agreement between the United 
States of America and the United Mexican States Concerning 
Transboundary Hydrocarbon Reservoirs in the Gulf of Mexico 
signed in February 2012 on how to explore, develop, and share 
revenue from hydrocarbon reservoirs that cross the 
international maritime boundary between the United States and 
Mexico in the Gulf of Mexico. Each country's legislative body 
is required to approve the agreement and Mexico ratified the 
agreement in April 2012.
Sec. 304. Amendment to the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act.
    Section 304 provided permanent authority for the Secretary 
of the Interior to implement the terms of any transboundary 
hydrocarbon agreement for the management of transboundary 
hydrocarbon reservoirs entered into by the President and 
approved by Congress. It requires any such agreement to be 
submitted to Congress within 180 days of any such agreement 
being completed. This section also allows the Secretary of the 
Interior to implement the Agreement between the United States 
of America and the United Mexican States Concerning 
Transboundary Hydrocarbon Reservoirs in the Gulf of Mexico. The 
Obama Administration signed the Agreement with Mexico in 2012 
to develop energy resources bridging our international maritime 
boundary and that Agreement makes provision for the sharing of 
royalties on transboundary reservoirs, and also has very 
specific requirements on maintaining data confidentiality.
Sec. 305. Federal oil and gas royalty prepayment cap.
    Subsection 305(a) clarifies current law by providing that 
if a federal lease holder pays more in royalties than the 
amount due, then the Secretary of the Interior shall not pay 
interest on any amount in excess of 110 percent of the amount 
due. Overpayments below the threshold continue to receive 
interest payments and underpayments continue to be subject to 
penalties. Subsection 305(b) provides that this provision is 
effective on July 1, 2014.
Sec. 306. Strategic Petroleum Reserve.
    Subsection 306(a) prohibits the Secretary of Energy from 
acquiring crude oil received by the United States as payment of 
royalties on production from federal lands due from private 
sector energy producers--a practice commonly referred to as 
royalty-in-kind payments--for the purpose of filling the 
Strategic Petroleum Reserve. This section also made a technical 
correction by prohibiting the Secretary of Energy from 
acquiring crude oil produced by the federal government on 
federal land for the purpose of filling the Strategic Petroleum 
Reserve, as this practice no longer occurred. The practical 
effect of this section is to require that any crude oil 
acquired by the Secretary of Energy for purposes of filling the 
Strategic Petroleum Reserve is acquired using funds from the 
``SPR Petroleum Account'' or funds appropriated by Congress.
    Subsection 306(b) permanently rescinded any unobligated 
funds remaining in the ``SPR Petroleum Account'' as of the date 
of enactment of this legislation. This section has no bearing 
on any future funds deposited into the account. All future 
funds deposited into the account will remain available to the 
Secretary of Energy, until expended, to fill the Strategic 
Petroleum Reserve. Funds currently in the account were 
deposited as a result of the 30.64 million barrels released 
from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve and sold in July and 
August of 2011.

           Title IV--Federal Civilian and Military Retirement

Sec. 401. Increase in contributions to Federal Employees' Retirement 
        System for new employees.
    Prior to the enactment of this Act, the typical revised 
annuity federal employee who participates in the Federal 
Employee Retirement System (FERS) was required to pay 3.1 
percentage points of pay into the Civil Service Retirement and 
Disability Fund (CSRDF). Depending on the type of service, 
different employees are required to pay different amounts. Law 
enforcement officers, nuclear materials couriers and customs 
and border protection officers pay 3.6 percentage points.
    Subsection 401(a) creates a new category of employees that 
are considered further revised annuity employees.
    Subsection 401(b) requires that newly hired employees who 
participate in the FERS contribute an additional 1.3 percentage 
points of pay that began on January 1, 2014, for a total of 4.4 
percentage points into the CSRDF. Other categories of employees 
pay 4.9 percentage points.
    Subsection 401(c) requires employing agencies continue 
their contributions at the current level in order to pay down 
the deficit in the CSRDF, which at the close of fiscal year 
2011 was $761 billion. Once the unfunded liability is 
eliminated, agency contributions will be determined on the 
basis of ensuring the full normal cost of the retirement 
benefit is paid into the CSRDF on an accrual basis.
    Subsection 401(d) ensures that certain (Members of Congress 
and Congressional employees) further revised annuity employees 
will continue to accrue benefits at the same rate as revised 
annuity employees.
Sec. 402. Foreign Service Pension System.
    Prior to the enactment of this Act, the typical revised 
annuity federal employee who participates in the Foreign 
Service Retirement and Disability System was required to pay 
3.65 percentage points of pay into the Foreign Service Pension 
System.
    Subsection 402(a) creates a new category of foreign service 
employees that are considered further revised annuity 
employees.
    Section 402(b) requires that newly hired employees who 
participate in the Foreign Service Retirement and Disability 
System (FSRDF) and the Foreign Service Pension System 
contribute an additional 1.3 percentage points of pay.
    Subsection 402(c) requires employing agencies continue 
their contributions at the current level in order to pay down 
the deficit in the FSRDF. Once the unfunded liability is 
eliminated, agency contributions are determined on the basis of 
ensuring the full normal cost of the retirement benefit is paid 
into the FSRDF on an accrual basis.
Sec. 403. Annual adjustment of retired pay and retainer pay amounts for 
        retired members of the Armed Forces under age 62.\2\
    Generally, service members who have completed 20 years of 
service, regardless of age, are eligible for non-disability 
retirement with immediate commencement of retired pay. For most 
retirees, pay is a percentage of the highest 36 months of the 
service member's Basic Pay. A service member who retires after 
20 years of service receives 50 percent of his or her High-36 
month Basic Pay with the percentage increasing in 2.5 percent 
increments for each year above 20. Because service members can 
retire well before the normal retirement age in the private 
sector, most service members begin a second career after 
leaving the military. Section 403 provides for an annual cost 
of living adjustment (COLA) of inflation (measured by the 
Consumer Price Index) less one percentage point for adjustments 
starting on December 1, 2015 until the retiree reaches age 62. 
There is no alteration to the 2014 COLA. At age 62, the retired 
pay is adjusted as if the COLA had been the full CPI adjustment 
in all previous years. Annual COLAs for service members after 
age 62 are at the full CPI.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    \2\ This section was amended by section 10001 of Division C of the 
Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2014 (Public Law 113-76). A 
description of section 10001 and the relevant legislative text can be 
found on pages 25 and 257 of this Committee Print, respectively. On 
February 15, 2014, the President signed into law Public Law 113-82, 
which among other things provides that the changes made in section 403 
of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013 apply only to those service 
members who first became members on or after January 1, 2014.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    This provision does not change the cost of living 
adjustments for participants in the REDUX retirement system.

                       Title V--Higher Education

Sec. 501. Default reduction program.
    Prior to the enactment of this Act, when guaranty agencies 
rehabilitated defaulted loans from the Federal Family Education 
Loan (FFEL) program, they charged borrowers 18.5 percent of the 
outstanding principal and interest owed on the loan at the time 
of sale and retained 18.5 percent of a federal default 
reinsurance payment. Section 501 lowers the maximum borrower 
collection fee to 16 percent and requires the agency to return 
100 percent of the federal default reinsurance payment, 
beginning on July 1, 2014. Moreover, it enables guaranty 
agencies to transfer rehabilitated loans to the Department of 
Education if they are unable to find a FFEL lender to purchase 
the loan. These steps make the compensation earned by guaranty 
agencies comparable to the compensation earned by the 
Department of Education's private sector contractors that 
rehabilitate defaulted FFEL and Direct Loan program loans held 
by the Department. It also lowers costs to borrowers as 
collection fees are typically added to the loan balance when 
rehabilitated.
Sec. 502. Elimination of nonprofit servicing contracts.
    In 2010, as part of the Health Care and Education 
Reconciliation Act (HCERA), Congress eliminated the guaranteed 
student loan program. Anticipating the need for increased 
student loan servicing capacity, in 2009, the Department of 
Education awarded performance-based contracts to four entities 
to service its portfolio of federal student loans, including 
those made under the Direct Loan program. During debate of 
HCERA, Congress established a special carve-out for non-profit 
firms to service student loans. The law required the Department 
to award at least 100,000 borrower loan accounts to each 
eligible non-profit servicer, and the law set aside mandatory 
funding for this purpose. In contrast, the for-profit servicers 
selected by the Department of Education on a performance basis 
were, and continue to be, paid with discretionary dollars. 
Section 502 eliminated the carve-out for non-profit servicers 
and requires them to be paid with discretionary dollars. See 
Appendix A for explanation of Congressional intent related to 
the impact of this section.

                        Title VI--Transportation

Sec. 601. Aviation security service fees.
    Prior to September 11, 2001, airlines paid for and carried 
out passenger and baggage security screening. With the 
formation of the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) 
came a mandate to substantially increase and coordinate 
aviation security procedures, and TSA screeners were deployed 
to airports across the country. To offset the cost of aviation 
security operations, the Aviation and Transportation Security 
Act instituted aviation passenger security fees, which were to 
cover the costs of security operations including technology, 
salaries and benefits of screeners, the air marshals program, 
Federal Security Managers, capital improvements, and other 
functions. TSA receives approximately $2 billion a year in 
offsetting collections under current law through air carrier 
and aviation passenger security fees. These fees cover about 30 
percent of the agency's aviation security costs.
    The aviation passenger security fee was initially 
established at a charge of $2.50 per enplanement with a maximum 
one-way trip fee of $5.00 (a passenger taking a non-stop flight 
paid a total of $2.50, while a passenger with at least one 
connecting flight paid $5.00).
    Section 601 simplifies the fee structure to a flat, $5.60 
fee per one-way trip, regardless of the number of enplanements. 
It also eliminates the Aviation Infrastructure Security Fee 
(ASIF) charged to air carriers. This fee structure allows TSA 
to offset approximately 43 percent of its aviation security 
costs.
    Section 601(a) repeals the ASIF that is currently imposed 
on air carriers, effective October 1, 2014.
    Section 601(b) restructured the aviation passenger security 
fee to make it a $5.60 per one-way trip charge, which is $.60 
above the current maximum fee.
    Section 601(c) requires receipts in excess of the 
$250,000,000 deposited annually into the Aviation Security 
Capital Fund be deposited in the general fund of the Treasury 
to partially defray the cost to the taxpayer of providing these 
services.
    Section 601(d) provides that the fee structure shall be 
changed effective July 1, 2014.
    Section 601(e) provides that nothing in this section 
effects the availability of funds in the Checkpoint Screening 
Security Fund.
Sec. 602. Transportation cost reimbursement.
    U.S. agencies are required to transport 50 percent of 
equipment, materials, and commodities shipped to foreign 
countries on vessels registered in the U.S., which is generally 
more expensive than foreign flag shipping. Food aid sent by the 
Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the U.S. Agency for 
International Development (USAID) to foreign countries is not 
exempt from this requirement, making this international 
assistance more costly than it would otherwise be. When 
shipping expenses for food aid exceed 20 percent of total 
program cost (the value of commodities plus shipping expenses) 
in a given fiscal year, the Maritime Administration (MARAD) 
must reimburse USDA and USAID by the dollar amount above 20 
percent. Section 602 eliminates the reimbursements from MARAD.
Sec. 603. Sterile areas at airports.
    The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) screens 
airline passengers when they enter the secured boarding area 
(officially, ``sterile area'') of all airports and monitors 
passengers as they exit from the secured boarding area at some 
airports. Funding for this activity is provided in part by 
security fees charged to passengers and air carriers. Earlier 
this year, TSA announced that, beginning in January 2014, all 
airport operators will be responsible for monitoring all 
passengers as they leave sterile areas. This responsibility 
imposed new cost on some airports. Section 603 requires TSA to 
continue monitoring airport exit lanes at airports currently 
receiving this service.

                  Title VII--Miscellaneous Provisions

Sec. 701. Extension of customs user fees.
    Section 701 extends the user fees collected by the 
Department of Homeland Security's Bureau of Customs and Border 
Protection (CBP) through 2023. There are nine different 
conveyance and passenger user fees and a merchandise processing 
fee collected by the CBP. The conveyance and passenger user 
fees were first established by the Consolidated Omnibus Budget 
Reconciliation Act (COBRA) of 1985. Prior to the enactment of 
this Act, customs user fees would have expired after 2021.
Sec. 702. Limitation on allowable government contractor compensation 
        costs.
    Since the 1990s, federal law has placed a limit on the 
amount of contractor employees' compensation costs that is 
allowed to be charged on federal government contracts. 
Compensation costs can include many elements, such as salary, 
bonuses, stock options, and employer contributions to pension 
plans, although under federal law and the Federal Acquisition 
Regulation (FAR), contractors are only allowed to charge some 
elements of compensation to federal government contracts. This 
cap, currently set at $952,308, has increased in real terms by 
95 percent since this approach was first used in 1998. The 
formula used by the Office of Federal Procurement Policy before 
the enactment of this Act was flawed, as it resulted in an 
escalation of $611,658, or nearly 180 percent (in nominal 
terms), in the 15 years following the year in which the 
compensation cap was established in law.
    Subsection 702(a) amended section 4304(a)(16) of title 41 
United States Code, and section 2324(e)(1)(P) of title 10, 
United States Code, by replacing the statutory benchmark 
compensation formula used to determine the amount of contractor 
compensation considered an allowable cost for a federal 
contract, with a cap of $487,000. It also limited additional 
changes to this level to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics 
Employment Cost Index for all workers. This subsection also 
provided for one or more narrowly targeted exceptions for 
scientists, engineers, or other specialists upon a 
determination that such exceptions are needed to ensure that 
the executive agency has continued access to needed skills and 
capabilities.
    Subsection 702(b) repealed the authority of the Office of 
Management and Budget to annually determine the allowable 
compensation costs.
    Subsection 702(c) requires the limitation in subsection (a) 
to only apply to contracts entered into on or after 180 days 
after the enactment of this Act.
    Subsection 702(d) requires the Director of the Office of 
Management and Budget to report annually to Congress on the use 
of the statutory exceptions to the limitation in subsection 
(a).
    Subsection 702(e) requires a report from the Secretary of 
Defense and the Director of the Office of Management and Budget 
on alternative benchmarks and industry standards for 
compensation.
Sec. 703. Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation premium rate increases.
    The Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) consists of 
two insurance programs: one for multiemployers and the other 
for single employers. These two programs protect the defined-
benefit pensions of nearly 44 million participants. Since 
fiscal year 2002, PBGC has ended each fiscal year with a 
deficit. PBGC faces a $36 billion deficit, which may leave the 
Corporation incapable of fulfilling its insurance obligations, 
resulting in cuts to benefits or lead to a transfer from the 
General Fund of the Treasury. Changes in this section apply to 
the single employer insurance program.
    Each sponsor of a pension plan insured by PBGC's single 
employer insurance program pays annual premiums. PBGC collects 
three types of premiums: (1) a flat-rate, per participant 
premium, (2) a variable-rate premium, based on the dollar 
amount of a plan's underfunding, and (3) a per-participant 
premium, payable for three years after a defined-benefit 
pension plan terminates.
    Before the enactment of this Act, the flat-rate premium of 
$42 per participant would have increased to $49 in 2014 and 
increased with the growth in wages thereafter. Plans that do 
not have enough assets set aside to pay 100 percent of the 
promised benefits are considered underfunded. The sponsors of 
underfunded defined-benefit plans pay the variable-rate annual 
premium of $9 per $1,000 of underfunding. Beginning in 2014, 
the variable-rate premium would have been indexed to increase 
by the average wage index. Plans that terminate their defined-
benefit pension plans under certain conditions are liable for a 
termination premium of $1,250 per plan participant per year for 
three years.
    Section 703 increased both flat-rate premiums and variable-
rate premiums to reduce the deficit of the PBGC.
    Subsection 703(a) increased the flat-rate premium to $57 
for plan year 2015 and to $64 for plan year 2016.
    Subsection 703(b) indexed the flat-rate premiums to the 
growth in wages after plan year 2016.
    Subsection 703(c) increased the variable-rate premium by $5 
in plan year 2015 and an additional $5 in plan year 2016.
    Subsection 703(d) made conforming changes ensuring the 
variable-rate premiums would then be indexed to the growth in 
wages after plan year 2016. This subsection also increased the 
variable-rate premium cap to $500 beginning for plan years 
beginning after 2015.
    Subsection 703(e) requires these provisions be effective 
for plan years beginning after December 31, 2013.
Sec. 704. Cancellation of unobligated balances.
    The Department of Justice Asset Forfeiture Fund was 
established by the Comprehensive Crime Control Act of 1984 
(Public Law 98-473) to seize and collect the proceeds of 
criminal activities. The fund uses the proceeds of forfeited 
assets--through a permanent, indefinite appropriation--to cover 
the costs of carrying out forfeiture activities. Annual Fund 
receipts are usually in excess of program needs, resulting in a 
large unobligated balance from year to year. A renewed emphasis 
on fraud and financial crime cases resulted in average annual 
outlays of nearly $1.5 billion since 2007, with collections 
during that time ranging from $1.6 billion in 2007 to $4.2 
billion in 2012.
    Subsection 704(a) permanently canceled $693 million of this 
balance.
    The Treasury Forfeiture Fund (TFF) supports participating 
Treasury Department and Homeland Security agencies in the use 
of asset forfeiture to disrupt and dismantle criminal 
enterprises and deter criminal activity. The focus of the TFF 
program is customs enforcement, whereas the Department of 
Justice Asset Forfeiture Fund specifically combats money 
laundering and fraud. The TFF collects cash and the proceeds of 
property forfeited pursuant to customs laws. TFF funds are 
available to cover costs related to seizures and forfeitures 
and certain other law enforcement activities. Annual TFF 
receipts are usually in excess of program needs, resulting in 
large unobligated balances from year to year. Program outlays 
have been about 70 percent of program receipts and collections 
over the past 5 years.
    Subsection 704(b) permanently canceled $867 million of 
these balances.
Sec. 705. Conservation planning technical assistance user fees.
    The Department of Agriculture's Natural Resources 
Conservation Service (NRCS) provides technical assistance for 
the development of individualized, site-specific conservation 
plans and the establishment of measures to conserve soil and 
water, including farm irrigation, flood prevention, and 
agricultural pollution control. The technical assistance 
provided to agricultural landowners and operators varies 
depending upon the complexity of the soil or water conservation 
resource concern.
    Subsection 705(a) authorizes NRCS to prescribe and collect 
fees of up to $150 per conservation plan to cover some of the 
costs of providing technical assistance for completing a 
conservation plan for a producer or landowner. This section 
authorizes the Secretary of Agriculture to waive fees for 
assistance provided to members of historically underserved 
groups, such as beginning farmers or ranchers, limited resource 
farmers or ranchers, and socially disadvantaged farmers or 
ranchers. Fees also could be waived by the Secretary for 
assistance provided to USDA program participants seeking to 
maintain payment eligibility under Section 1212 of the Food 
Security Act of 1985, or to comply with local, state, or 
Federal regulatory requirements.
    Subsection 705(b) establishes a Conservation Technical 
Assistance Fund to receive the fees authorized in subsection 
(a). Monies deposited in the fund are available only pursuant 
to future appropriations.
Sec. 706. Self plus one coverage.
    The law governing the Federal Employees Health Benefits 
Program (FEHBP), as originally enacted in 1959, only allows for 
employees to enroll as individuals (``self only'') or as a 
family (``self and family''). Section 706 modernizes the FEHBP 
to include a ``self plus one'' enrollment tier. This section 
aligns the FEHB Program with the commercial market and serves 
to spread costs across different enrollment types.

in section 101(d)(2)(C) of section 251A of the Balanced Budget 
and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, extended to fiscal 
years 2022 and 2023 by section 101(c) of the Bipartisan Budget 
Act of 2013, Division A of this Act. The section increases the

 Title X--Military Disability Retirement and Survivor Benefit Annuity 
                              Restoration

Sec. 10001. Inapplicability of annual adjustment of retired pay for 
        members of the Armed Forces under the age of 62 under the 
        Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013 to members retired for disability 
        and to retired pay used to compute certain survivor benefit 
        plan annuities.
    Section 10001(a) amends 10 U.S.C. 1401a (as amended by the 
Bipartisan Budget Act) to exempt Chapter 61 retirees and 
Survivors Benefit Plan annuitants from the reduced cost-of-
living adjustment for retirees under age 62 that will go into 
effect with the December 2015 COLA pursuant to section 403 of 
the Bipartisan Budget Act.
    Section 10001(b) clarifies that the reduced cost-of-living 
adjustment for retirees under age 62 shall not have the effect 
of reducing Combat-Related Special Compensation or concurrent 
receipt of VA disability compensation. It also clarifies that 
the reduced COLA cannot cause a pay inversion.
    Section 10001(c) provides that this provision takes effect 
on December 1, 2015, when the Bipartisan Budget Act changes 
become effective.
    Section 10001(d) provides that the budgetary effects of 
this change ($573 million in increased spending over 10 years) 
not be entered onto the pay-as-you-go scorecards. This 
provision is a correction to the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013, 
the budgetary effects of which were not entered onto the 
scorecards. Therefore to maintain consistent treatment, this 
provision is accorded the same treatment with respect to the 
PAYGO scorecards.

       aggregates, allocations, and other budgetary levels of the
                   fiscal year 2014 budget resolution
    Mr. RYAN of Wisconsin: Mr. Speaker, section 111 of the Bipartisan 
Budget Act of 2013, Public Law No: 113-67, which established a 
concurrent resolution on the budget for fiscal year 2014, requires the 
chairs of the House and Senate Budget Committees to submit for printing 
in the Congressional Record committee allocations, aggregates, and 
other budgetary levels for fiscal year 2014.
    Pursuant to section 111 of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013, I 
hereby submit for printing in the Congressional Record: (1) an 
allocation for fiscal year 2014 for the House Committee on 
Appropriations, (2) allocations for fiscal years 2014 and 2014 through 
2023 for committees other than the Committee on Appropriations, (3) 
aggregate spending levels for fiscal year 2014, and (4) aggregate 
revenue levels for fiscal years 2014 and 2014 through 2023.
    In the case of allocations for committees other than the Committee 
on Appropriations and for the revenue aggregates, the levels shall be 
set consistent with the Congressional Budget Office's May 2013 
baseline, adjusted to account for the budgetary effects of the 
Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013 and other legislation enacted since the 
release of the May 2013 baseline. In other words, in these instances, 
the new allocations and levels are set equal to the updated May 
baseline.
    Associated tables are attached. These committee allocations, 
aggregates, and other budgetary levels are made for the purposes of 
enforcing titles III and IV of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, 
and other budgetary enforcement provisions.

    Senator Murray (WA) submitted the following statement of 
committee allocations, aggregates, and other budgetary levels 
for fiscal year 2014 for the Congressional Record as required 
by section 111 of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013. This 
statement can be found on pages S361-363 of the Congressional 
Record (113th Congress).

     Publication of Budgetary Material--(Senate--January 15, 2014)

 submission of committee allocations, budget aggregates, pay-as-you-go 
scorecard, and list of advance appropriations pursuant to sections 111, 
           112, and 114 of the bipartisan budget act of 2013
    Ms. MURRAY. Mr. President, the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013, which 
Congress passed last month, provides relief to families and the economy 
from the harmful effects of sequestration, more than offsetting the 
costs of providing that relief with savings elsewhere in the federal 
budget. In addition to those changes, the Bipartisan Budget Act also 
establishes a Congressional Budget for 2014 and, if necessary, for 
2015, authorizing the Chairmen of the Senate and House Budget 
Committees to file allocations, aggregates, and levels in the Senate 
and the House for budget year 2014.
    Specifically, to provide for continued enforcement in the Senate, 
section 111 requires the Chairman of the Budget Committee to file: (1) 
an allocation for fiscal year 2014 for the Committee on Appropriations; 
(2) allocations for fiscal years 2014, 2014 through 2018, and 2014 
through 2023 for committees other than the Committee on Appropriations; 
(3) aggregate spending levels for fiscal year 2014; (4) aggregate 
revenue levels for fiscal years 2014, 2014 through 2018, and 2014 
through 2023; and (5) aggregate levels of outlays and revenue for 
fiscal years 2014, 2014 through 2018, and 2014 through 2023 for Social 
Security.
    In the case of the Committee on Appropriations for 2014, the 
allocation shall be set consistent with the discretionary spending 
limits set forth in the Bipartisan Budget Act, which imposes limits on 
the amount of budget authority that can be provided under both the 
revised security category and the revised nonsecurity category.
    Both the discretionary spending limits and the allocation to the 
Committee on Appropriations can be revised for certain adjustments 
specifically authorized under the Budget Control Act of 2011. H.R. 
3547, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2014, which the Senate will 
soon consider, includes several such adjustments. Consistent with the 
funding levels included in H.R. 3547, I am incorporating into the 
allocation to the Committee on Appropriations adjustments for overseas 
contingency operations and the global war on terrorism, disaster 
funding, and the program integrity initiative in the area of continuing 
disability reviews. I am also adjusting for a change in outlays 
previously designated as an emergency requirement. These adjustments 
are authorized by section 251 of the Balanced Budget and Emergency 
Deficit Control Act of 1985, as modified by section 101 of the Budget 
Control Act, and by section 314(a) of the Congressional Budget Act.
    In the case of allocations for committees other than the Committee 
on Appropriations and for the revenue and Social Security aggregates, 
the levels shall be set consistent with the Congressional Budget 
Office's May 2013 baseline, adjusted to account for the budgetary 
effects of the Bipartisan Budget Act and other legislation enacted 
since the release of the May 2013 baseline. In other words, in these 
instances, the new allocations and levels are set equal to the updated 
May baseline.
    In the case of the spending aggregates for 2014, the levels shall 
be set in accordance with the allocation for the Committee on 
Appropriations and the allocations for committees other than the 
Committee on Appropriations, as described previously.
    Section 114 directs the Chairman of the Budget Committee also to 
reset the Senate pay-as-you-go scorecard to zero for all fiscal years. 
Pursuant to section 114, those revisions occurred immediately upon 
enactment of the Bipartisan Budget Act. I am now notifying the Senate 
and including the revised scorecard as part of the submission on 
revised enforcement for budget year 2014.
    Finally, section 112 of the Bipartisan Budget Act establishes a 
point of order in the Senate against appropriations bills that provide 
advance appropriations. That Act includes limited exceptions to this 
prohibition including up to $28.852 billion in advance appropriations 
for programs, projects, activities, or accounts included in a statement 
submitted by the Chairman of the Budget Committee in the Congressional 
Record. Pursuant to section 112, the list of allowable advance 
appropriations subject to the limit is as follows:
             accounts identified for advance appropriations
Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education:
    Employment and Training Administration
    Job Corps
    Education for the Disadvantaged
    School Improvement
    Special Education
    Career, Technical, and Adult Education
Financial Services and General Government:
    Payment to Postal Service
Transportation, Housing and Urban Development:
    Tenant-based Rental Assistance
    Project-based Rental Assistance

    Mr. President, my counterpart, the Chairman of the House Budget 
Committee, Congressman Ryan, similarly is filing allocations, 
aggregates, and levels in the House. The two filings will allow the 
House and the Senate to extend budget enforcement measures for 2014, an 
important principle of the bipartisan deal that Chairman Ryan and I 
agreed to last month.
    I ask unanimous consent that the following tables detailing 
enforcement in the Senate for budget year 2014, including new committee 
allocations, budgetary and Social Security aggregates, as well as 
adjustments to those levels, and the pay-as-you-go scorecard, be 
printed in the RECORD.

                category or nonsecurity category by a dollar 
                amount calculated by multiplying the baseline 
                level of budgetary resources in that account at 
                that time by a uniform percentage necessary to 
                achieve--
                            (i) for the revised security 
                        category, an amount equal to the 
                        defense function discretionary 
                        reduction calculated pursuant to 
                        [paragraph (5)] paragraph (3); and
                            (ii) for the revised nonsecurity 
                        category, an amount equal to the 
                        nondefense function discretionary 
                        reduction calculated pursuant to 
                        [paragraph (6)] paragraph (4).
                    (B) Fiscal years 2014-2021.-- [On] Except 
                as provided by paragraph (10), on the date of 
                the submission of its sequestration preview 
                report for fiscal years 2014 through 2021 
                pursuant to section 254(c) for each of fiscal 
                years 2014 through 2021, OMB shall reduce the 
                discretionary spending limit--
                            (i) for the revised security 
                        category by the amount of the defense 
                        function discretionary reduction 
                        calculated pursuant to [paragraph (5)] 
                        paragraph (3); and
                            (ii) for the revised nonsecurity 
                        category by the amount of the 
                        nondefense function discretionary 
                        reduction calculated pursuant to 
                        [paragraph (6)] paragraph (4).
            [(8)] (6) Implementing direct spending 
        reductions.-- (A) On the date specified in [paragraph 
        (4)] paragraph (2) during each applicable year, OMB 
        shall prepare and the President shall order a 
        sequestration, effective upon issuance, of nonexempt 
        direct spending to achieve the direct spending 
        reduction calculated pursuant to [paragraphs (5) and 
        (6)] paragraphs (3) and (4). When implementing the 
        sequestration of direct spending pursuant to this 
        paragraph, OMB shall follow the procedures specified in 
        section 6 of the Statutory Pay-As-You-Go Act of 2010, 
        the exemptions specified in section 255, and the 
        special rules specified in section 256, except that the 
        percentage reduction for the Medicare programs 
        specified in section 256(d) shall not be more than 2 
        percent for a fiscal year.
            (B) On the dates OMB issues its sequestration 
        preview reports for fiscal year 2022 and for fiscal 
        year 2023, pursuant to section 254(c), the President 
        shall order a sequestration, effective upon issuance 
        such that--
                    (i) the percentage reduction for nonexempt 
                direct spending for the defense function is the 
                same percent as the percentage reduction for 
                nonexempt direct spending for the defense 
                function for fiscal year 2021 calculated under 
                paragraph (3)(B); and
                    (ii) the percentage reduction for nonexempt 
                direct spending for nondefense functions is the 
                same percent as the percentage reduction for 
                nonexempt direct spending for nondefense 
                functions for fiscal year 2021 calculated under 
                paragraph (4)(B).
            [(9)] (7) Adjustment for medicare.--If the 
        percentage reduction for the Medicare programs would 
        exceed 2 percent for a fiscal year in the absence of 
        [paragraph (8)] paragraph (6), OMB shall increase the 
        reduction for all other discretionary appropriations 
        and direct spending under [paragraph (6)] paragraph (4) 
        by a uniform percentage to a level sufficient to 
        achieve the reduction required by [paragraph (6)] 
        paragraph (4) in the non-defense function.
            [(10)] (8) Implementation of reductions.--Any 
        reductions imposed under this section shall be 
        implemented in accordance with section 256(k).
            [(11)] (9) Report.--On the dates specified in 
        [paragraph (4)] paragraph (2), OMB shall submit a 
        report to Congress containing information about the 
        calculations required under this section, the adjusted 
        discretionary spending limits, a listing of the 
        reductions required for each nonexempt direct spending 
        account, and any other data and explanations that 
        enhance public understanding of this title and actions 
        taken under it.
            (10) Implementing direct spending reductions for 
        fiscal years 2014 and 2015.--(A) OMB shall make the 
        calculations necessary to implement the direct spending 
        reductions calculated pursuant to paragraphs (3) and 
        (4) without regard to the amendment made to section 
        251(c) revising the discretionary spending limits for 
        fiscal years 2014 and 2015 by the Bipartisan Budget Act 
        of 2013.
            (B) Paragraph (5)(B) shall not be implemented for 
        fiscal years 2014 and 2015.

    Sec. 305. (a) Procedure in House of Representatives After 
Report of Committee; Debate.--
            (1) When a concurrent resolution on the budget has 
        been reported by the Committee on the Budget of the 
        House of Representatives and has been referred to the 
        appropriate calendar of the House, it shall be in order 
        on any day thereafter, subject to [clause 2(l)(6) of 
        rule XI] clause 4 of rule XIII of the Rules of the 
        House of Representatives, to move to proceed to the 
        consideration of the concurrent resolution. The motion 
        is highly privileged and is not debatable. An amendment 
        to the motion is not in order and it is not in order to 
        move to reconsider the vote by which the motion is 
        agreed to or disagreed to.

           *       *       *       *       *       *       *

        the budget by the House of Representatives shall be in 
        the Committee of the Whole, and the resolution shall be 
        considered for amendment under the five-minute rule in 
        accordance with the applicable [provisions of rule 
        XXIII] provisions of rule XVIII of the Rules of the 
        House of Representatives. After the Committee rises and 
        reports the resolution back to the House, the previous 
        question shall be considered as ordered on the 
        resolution and any amendments thereto to final passage 
        without intervening motion; except that it shall be in 
        order at any time prior to final passage 
        (notwithstanding any other rule or provision of law) to 
        adopt an amendment (or a series of amendments) changing 
        any figure or figures in the resolution as so reported 
        to the extent necessary to achieve mathematical 
        consistency.

    (c) Treasury Transactions With the Financing Accounts.--The 
Secretary of the Treasury shall borrow from, receive from, lend 
to, or pay to the financing accounts such amounts as may be 
appropriate. The Secretary of the Treasury may prescribe forms 
and denominations, maturities, and terms and conditions for the 
transactions described above, except that the rate of interest 
charged by the Secretary on lending to financing accounts 
(including amounts treated as lending to financing accounts by 
the Federal Financing Bank (hereinafter in this subsection 
referred to as the ``Bank'') pursuant to [section 406(b)] 
section 405(b)) and the rate of interest paid to financing 
accounts on uninvested balances in financing accounts shall be 
the same as the rate determined pursuant to section 502(5)(E). 
For guaranteed loans financed by the Bank and treated as direct 
loans by a Federal agency pursuant to [section 406(b)] section

purposes of determining the cost of the direct loan pursuant to 
section 502(5). All such amounts shall be credited to the 
appropriate financing account. The Bank is authorized to 
require reimbursement from a Federal agency to cover the 
administrative expenses of the Bank that are attributable to 
the direct loans financed for that agency. All such payments by 
an agency shall be considered administrative expenses subject 
to section 504(g). This subsection shall apply to transactions 
related to direct loan obligations or loan guarantee 
commitments made on or after October 1, 1991. The authorities 
described above shall not be construed to supersede or override 
the authority of the head of a Federal agency to administer and 
operate a direct loan or loan guarantee program. All of the 
transactions provided in this subsection shall be subject to 
the provisions of subchapter II of chapter 15 of title 31, 
United States Code. Cash balances of the financing accounts in 
excess of current requirements shall be maintained in a form of 
uninvested funds and the Secretary of the Treasury shall pay 
interest on these funds.

    (v)(I) The Commissioner may disclose information received 
pursuant to this paragraph to any officer, employee, agent, or 
contractor of the Department of the Treasury whose official 
duties require such information to assist in the 
identification, prevention, and recovery of improper payments 
or in the collection of delinquent debts owed to the United 
States, including payments certified by the head of an 
executive, judicial, or legislative paying agency, and payments 
made to individuals whose eligibility, or continuing

may have been issued, or facilitated in the issuance of, an 
improper payment.
    (III) The comparison of information disclosed under 
subclause (I) shall not be considered a matching program for 
purposes of section 552a of title 5, United States Code.

    Sec. 1902. (a) A State plan for medical assistance must--
            (1) * * *

           *       *       *       *       *       *       *

            (25) provide--
                    (A) * * *
                    (B) that in any case where such a legal 
                liability is found to exist after medical 
                assistance has been made available on behalf of 
                the individual and where the amount of 
                reimbursement the State can reasonably expect 
                to recover exceeds the costs of such recovery, 
                the State or local agency will seek 
                reimbursement for such assistance [to the 
                extent of such legal liability];

           *       *       *       *       *       *       *

                        in accordance with the usual payment 
                        schedule under such plan for such 
                        services without regard to the 
                        liability of a third party for payment 
                        for such services, except that the 
                        State may, if the State determines 
                        doing so is cost-effective and will not 
                        adversely affect access to care, only 
                        make such payment if a third party so 
                        liable has not made payment within 90 
                        days after the date the provider of

                    (F) that in the case of any services 
                covered under such plan which are provided to 
                an individual on whose behalf child support 
                enforcement is being carried out by the State 
                agency under part D of title IV of this Act, 
                the State shall--
                            (i) make payment for such service 
                        in accordance with the usual payment 
                        schedule under such plan for such 
                        services without regard to any third-
                        party liability for payment for such 
                        services, if such third-party liability 
                        is derived (through insurance or 
                        otherwise) from the parent whose 
                        obligation to pay support is being 
                        enforced by such agency, if payment has 
                        not been made by such third party 
                        within [30 days after such services are 
                        furnished] 90 days after the date the 
                        provider of such services has initially 
                        submitted a claim to such third party 
                        for payment for such services, except 
                        that the State may make such payment 
                        within 30 days after such date if the 
                        State determines doing so is cost-
                        effective and necessary to ensure 
                        access to care.;

                been made under the State plan for medical 
                assistance in any case where a third party has 
                a legal liability to make payment for such 
                assistance, the State has in effect laws under 
                which, to the extent that payment has been made 
                under the State plan for medical assistance for 
                health care items or services furnished to an 
                individual, the State is considered to have 
                acquired the rights of such individual to 
                [payment by any other party for such health 
                care items or services] any payments by such 
                third party; and

provide health insurance coverage for each child who is covered 
under the order, in a health benefits plan that provides full 
benefits and services in the location in which [the child 
resides] the child or children reside, and the employee does 
not provide documentation showing that such coverage has been 
provided through other health insurance, the employing agency 
shall enroll the employee in a [self and family enrollment] 
self plus one or self and family enrollment, as necessary to 
provide health insurance coverage for each child who is covered 
under the order, in the option which provides the lower level

coverage for [a child] 1 or more children who meets the 
requirements of section 8901(5) may change to a [self and 
family enrollment] self plus one or self and family enrollment, 
as necessary to provide health insurance coverage for each 
child who is covered under the order, in the same or another 
health benefits plan under this chapter. If such employee fails 
to change to a [self and family enrollment] self plus one or 
self and family enrollment, as necessary to provide health 
insurance coverage for each child who is covered under the 
order, and the employee does not provide documentation showing 
that such coverage has been provided through other health 
insurance, the employing agency shall change the enrollment of 
the employee to a [self and family enrollment] self plus one or 
self and family enrollment, as necessary to provide health 
insurance coverage for each child who is covered under the 
order, in the plan in which the employee is enrolled if that 
plan provides full benefits and services in the location where 
[the child resides] the child or children reside. If the plan 
in which the employee is enrolled does not provide full 
benefits and services in the location in which [the child 
resides] the child or children reside, or, if the employee 
fails to change to a [self and family enrollment] self plus one 
or self and family enrollment, as necessary to provide health 
insurance coverage for each child who is covered under the 
order, in a plan that provides full benefits and services in 
the location where [the child resides] the child or children 
reside, the employing agency shall change the coverage of the 
employee to a [self and family enrollment] self plus one or 
self and family enrollment, as necessary to provide health 
insurance coverage for each child who is covered under the 
order, in the option which provides the lower level of coverage 
under the Service Benefits Plan.
    (3) The employee may not discontinue the [self and family 
enrollment] self plus one or self and family enrollment, as 
necessary to provide health insurance coverage for each child 
who is covered under the order, in a plan that provides full 
benefits and services in the location in which [the child 
resides] the child or children reside for so long as the court 
or administrative order remains in effect and [the child 
continues] the child or children continue to meet the 
requirements of section 8901(5), unless the employee provides 
documentation showing that such coverage has been provided 
through other health insurance.

    (b) Cost-of-Living Adjustments Based on CPI Increases.--
            (1) Increase required.--Effective on December 1 of 
        each year, the Secretary of Defense shall increase the 
        retired pay of members and former members entitled to 
        that pay in accordance with [paragraphs (2) and (3)]

                    (A) In general.--Effective on December 1 of 
                each year, the retired pay of each member and 
                former member under 62 years of age entitled to 
                that pay shall be adjusted in accordance with 
                this paragraph instead of paragraph (2) or (3).
                    (B) CPI minus one.--If the percent 
                determined under paragraph (2) is greater than 
                1 percent, the Secretary shall increase the 
                retired pay of each member and former member by

                            (i) the percent determined under 
                        paragraph (2); and

                    (C) No negative adjustment.--If the percent 
                determined under paragraph (2) is equal to or 
                less than 1 percent, the Secretary shall not 
                increase the retired pay of members and former 
                members under this paragraph.
                    (D) Revised adjustment upon reaching age 
                62.--When a member or former member whose 
                retired pay has been subject to adjustment 
                under this paragraph becomes 62 years of age, 
                the Secretary of Defense shall recompute the 
                retired pay of the member or former member, to 
                be effective on the date of the next adjustment 
                of retired pay under this subsection, so as to 
                be the amount equal to the amount of retired 
                pay to which the member or former member would 
                be entitled on that date if increases in the 
                retired pay of the member or former member had 
                been computed as provided in paragraph (2) or 
                as specified in section 1410 of this title, as 
                applicable, rather than this paragraph.
                    (E) Inapplicability of catch-up rule.--
                Paragraph (5) shall not apply in the case of 
                adjustments made, or not made, as a result of 
                application of this paragraph.
            [(4)] (5) Special rule for paragraph (3).--If in 
        any case in which an increase in retired pay that would 
        otherwise be made under paragraph (3) is not made by 
        reason of law (other than any provision of this 
        section), then (unless otherwise provided by law) when 
        the next increase in retired pay is made under this 
        subsection, the increase under paragraph (3) shall be 
        carried out so as to achieve the same net increase in 
        retired pay under that paragraph that would have been 
        the case if that law had not been enacted.
            [(5)] (6) Regulations.--Any increase in retired pay

                ocean freight differential for which 
                obligations are incurred by the Secretary of 
                Agriculture and the Corporation on exports of 
                agricultural commodities and their products 
                under the agricultural export programs 
                specified in section 55314(b) of this title; 
                exceeds
                    [(B) 20 percent of the value of the

                differential on which obligations are incurred

                Corporation during that fiscal year.
            [(2) Commodities shipped from inventory.--For 
        purposes of this subsection, commodities shipped from 
        the inventory of the Corporation shall be valued as 
        provided in section 412(d) of the Food for Peace Act (7 
        U.S.C. 1736f(d)).
    [(c) Issuance and Purchase of Obligations.--
            [(1) Issuance.--To meet the expenses required to be 
        assumed under subsection (b), the Secretary of 
        Transportation shall issue obligations to the Secretary 
        of the Treasury. The Secretary of Transportation, with 
        the approval of the Secretary of the Treasury, shall 
        prescribe the form, denomination, maturity, and other 
        terms (except the interest rate) of the obligations. 
        The Secretary of the Treasury shall set the interest 
        rate for the obligations, considering the average 
        market yield on outstanding marketable obligations of 
        the United States Government of comparable maturities 
        during the month before the obligations are issued.
            [(2) Purchase.--The Secretary of the Treasury shall 
        purchase the obligations issued under this subsection. 
        To purchase the obligations, the Secretary of the 
        Treasury may use as a public debt transaction the 
        proceeds from the sale of securities issued under 
        chapter 31 of title 31. The purposes for which 
        securities may be issued under that chapter are 
        extended to include the purchase of obligations under 
        this subsection. A redemption or purchase of the 
        obligations by the Secretary of the Treasury is a 
        public debt transaction of the Government.
    [(d) Source of Funds for Reimbursement.--Reimbursement of 
the Secretary of Transportation for costs incurred under this 
section shall be made with appropriated funds rather than 
through cancellation of notes.
    [(e) Appropriations.--
            [(1) Authorization.--Each fiscal year, there is 
        authorized to be appropriated an amount sufficient to 
        reimburse the Secretary of Transportation for the costs 
        incurred under this section, including administrative 
        expenses and the principal and interest due on 
        obligations issued to the Secretary of the Treasury.
            [(2) Appropriation for administrative expenses.--
        Each fiscal year, such amounts as may be necessary are 
        hereby appropriated to pay interest and to liquidate 
        debt on obligations issued to the Secretary of the 
        Treasury under this section.
    [(f) Notification to Congress of Insufficiency.--If the 
Secretary of Transportation is unable to obtain the funds 
necessary to finance the increased ocean freight charges 
resulting from the requirements of subsection (b), the 
Secretary shall notify Congress within 10 working days of the 
discovery of the insufficiency.

    [This subchapter terminates 90 days after the date on which 
a notification is made under section 55316(f) of this title, 
except for shipments of agricultural commodities and their 
products subject to contracts made before the end of that 90-

Transportation proclaims that funds are available to finance 
increased freight charges resulting from the requirements of 
section 55316(b) of this title. On the termination of this 
subchapter under this section--

               congressional budget office cost estimate
                           december 11, 2013

                     Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013

 As posted on the website of the House Committee on Rules on December 
                                10, 2013

                                summary
    The legislation, offered as an amendment to H.J. Res. 59, the 
Continuing Appropriations Resolution, 2014, would revise the limits on 
discretionary appropriations for fiscal years 2014 and 2015, allowing 
for higher levels of funding in those years than is allowed under the 
caps and budget enforcement procedures in current law. CBO estimates 
that, if appropriations for 2014 and 2015 equaled the revised limits, 
discretionary outlays would be roughly $62 billion higher over the 
2014-2023 period than if appropriations for those years equaled the 
limits in current law. (Nearly $48 billion of the anticipated increase 
in discretionary outlays would occur in 2014 and 2015.)
    The legislation also would make several changes in programs that 
are not funded through annual appropriations, as well as a few changes 
that would affect federal revenues. In addition, the bill would extend 
across-the-board cuts (known as sequestration) in certain direct 
spending programs for an additional two years--2022 and 2023--beyond 
the period during which sequestration will apply under current law; 
those additional cuts would be the same percentage of spending required 
under current law for 2021. CBO and the staff of the Joint Committee on 
Taxation (JCT) estimate that, in total, those provisions would reduce 
direct spending by about $78 billion and increase revenues by about $7 
billion over the 2014-2023 period. Thus, the legislation's changes in 
direct spending and revenues would reduce deficits by roughly $85 
billion over the next 10 years. Some of those changes also would affect 
discretionary spending, but such changes would be subject to 
appropriation and limited under the caps on annually appropriated 
funding.
    Although enacting the legislation would affect direct spending and 
revenues, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply because the legislation 
specifies that its budgetary effects shall not be entered onto the 
scorecards maintained under the Statutory Pay-As-You-Go Act of 2010.
    The legislation contains no intergovernmental mandates as defined 
in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA). It would impose private-
sector mandates as defined in UMRA on airline passengers, sponsors of 
defined-benefit pension plans, and users of customs services. CBO 
estimates that the cost of the mandates would total more than $1 
billion in fiscal year 2015 and more than $2 billion annually beginning 
in fiscal year 2016. Thus, the aggregate cost of mandates would 
significantly exceed the annual threshold established in UMRA for 
private-sector mandates ($150 million in 2013, adjusted annually for 
inflation) during the first five years that the mandates are in effect.
    Section 204 of the legislation would amend portions of the Social 
Security Act that relate to the Old-Age, Survivors, and Disability 
Insurance programs under title II of the Social Security Act. UMRA 
excludes from its application any legislation that applies to those 
provisions of the Social Security Act. Consequently, CBO has not 
reviewed section 204 for mandates.
                 estimated impact on the federal budget
    The estimated budgetary impact of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013 
is summarized in Table 1. (Details for the estimates of effects on 
direct spending and revenues are provided in Table 2, attached at the 
end of this cost estimate.) The effects of this legislation fall within 
several budget functions, including those covering defense, natural 
resources, transportation, education, health care, and income security.

a. In addition to the effects on direct spending and revenues, some provisions of the legislation would affect spending subject to appropriation, which
  is controlled by annual caps on such discretionary funding. Those additional effects are not included in these rows.
b. Positive numbers denote an increase in revenues.

                           basis of estimate
    The legislation would allow for greater spending subject to 
appropriation than is allowed under current law by increasing the caps 
on new discretionary funding in fiscal years 2014 and 2015 (see the 
Memorandum section of Table 1).
    The legislation also would directly affect budget deficits by 
changing provisions related to direct spending programs and by amending 
the Internal Revenue Code. Some of those changes also would affect 
discretionary spending, but such changes would be subject to 
appropriation and limited under the caps on annually appropriated 
funding.
Title I--Budget Enforcement
    The Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013 would increase the caps on 
discretionary budget authority--that is, the caps on new annual 
appropriations--for fiscal years 2014 and 2015. For 2014, the caps on 
defense and nondefense funding would each be about $22 billion higher 
than the current caps (which include the effects of the automatic 
spending reductions described in the Budget Control Act of 2011).\3\ 
For 2015, the defense and nondefense caps would each be raised by about 
$9 billion. CBO estimates that, if appropriations for 2014 and 2015 
equaled the revised limits, discretionary outlays would be roughly $62 
billion higher over the 2014-2023 period than if appropriations for 
those years equaled the limits in current law.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    \3\ The Budget Control Act of 2011 (Public Law 112-25) established 
an initial set of caps on annual discretionary funding as well as a set 
of lower caps (for 2014 through 2021) that were triggered by the 
failure of the Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction to achieve a 
targeted amount of deficit reduction. The lower caps are currently in 
place through 2021; the legislation would increase those caps for 2014 
and 2015, and leave the caps unchanged for other years through 2021.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    The legislation also would extend the automatic spending reductions 
applied to certain mandatory spending accounts through 2023 (those 
reductions are currently in effect through 2021). The legislation would 
require that the sequestration percentage applied to nonexempt 
mandatory accounts in 2021 be continued and applied in the same manner 
in 2022 and 2023. CBO estimates that extending those spending 
reductions for nonexempt mandatory programs for two additional years 
would decrease direct spending by $28 billion over the 2022-2023 
period.
    In addition, the legislation would make some changes in the 
Congressional budget process related to adoption of the budget 
resolution and budget enforcement within the House of Representatives 
and the Senate. Those changes would not, by themselves, have a direct 
budgetary impact, but they could affect Congressional decisions about 
budget-related legislation in 2014 and future years.
Title II--Prevention of Waste, Fraud, and Abuse
    The legislation would enhance the ability of states and the federal 
government to reduce certain payments (including some that stem from 
fraud) and increase recoveries of overpayments. In total, CBO estimates 
that enacting title II would reduce direct spending by about $1.9 
billion and increase revenues by $0.6 billion over the 2014-2023 
period. The proposed changes would:
     Require states to use the Treasury Offset Program (TOP) to 
recover overpayments of unemployment compensation. Under current law, 
states may use TOP, but are not required to do so.
     Enable states to avoid paying for prenatal and preventive 
pediatric claims when a third party is liable for such payments. The 
legislation also would give states additional time to collect payments 
in cases involving medical child support and allow states to recover 
payments from certain liability settlements, thereby reducing net 
direct spending for Medicaid.
     Restrict access to the Death Master File maintained by the 
Social Security Administration, which includes information that might 
be used by individuals to file fraudulent tax returns or submit 
fraudulent claims to Medicare.
     Expand the data on inmates that are available to the 
Department of Treasury, which would result in higher revenue 
collections and lower payments for refundable tax credits.
    Three of those four provisions would affect both direct spending 
and revenues, producing budgetary savings in both of those categories. 
The provision for Medicaid third-party liability would affect only 
direct spending.
Title III--Natural Resources
    Title III would make various changes to federal oil and gas 
programs that would reduce spending by $4.5 billion over the 2014-2023 
period, CBO estimates. Title III would:
     Repeal provisions in the Energy Policy Act of 2005 that 
authorized direct spending through fiscal year 2014 for research on the 
development of certain oil and gas resources.
     Reduce the amount of payments made to states under the 
Mineral Leasing Act, which requires the federal government to make 
payments to states based on the proceeds from mineral leasing 
activities on federal lands.
     Approve an agreement between the United States and Mexico 
regarding oil and gas resources near the international border in the 
Gulf of Mexico and establish procedures for implementing future 
agreements affecting such border areas.
     Amend the procedures used to determine the amount of 
interest that may be paid on overpayments of oil and gas royalties from 
federal leases.
     Permanently rescind the unobligated balances currently 
available for purchase of oil for the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) 
and repeal the authority of the SPR program to acquire oil using 
royalty-in-kind payments from companies that develop oil and gas 
resources under federal leases.
Title IV--Federal Civilian and Military Retirement
    The bill would make several changes to retirement benefits for 
employees of federal agencies. In total, CBO estimates that enacting 
title IV would reduce spending by $6.2 billion and increase revenues by 
$6.0 billion, respectively, over the 2014-2023 period. Specifically, 
title IV would:
     Increase the contribution rate that federal employees, 
including those covered under the Foreign Service Retirement System, 
pay toward their future retirement benefit (such contributions are 
considered revenues to the Treasury). The legislation would increase 
contributions by 1.3 percent of pay for federal employees that begin 
service on or after January 1, 2014.
     Reduce the annual cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) for 
military retirees under the age of 62 by 1 percent. Monthly retired pay 
for those individuals would be readjusted upward at age 62 as if the 
COLA reduction had not taken place and retirees would receive full 
annual COLAs thereafter.
    The COLA provision also would reduce discretionary accrual payments 
to the Military Retirement Fund over the 2015-2023 period. While such 
payments count against discretionary amounts allocated to the 
Department of Defense as part of the annual appropriations process, 
they are intragovernmental transactions, and do not result in outlays 
from the government. If, within the discretionary caps, the reduction 
in accrual payments makes possible an offsetting increase in other 
appropriations, the net effect would be an increase in outlays--because 
an intragovernmental payment would be replaced by spending that goes 
outside the government.
Title V--Higher Education
    CBO estimates that enacting title V would reduce direct spending by 
$5.1 billion over the 2014-2023 period by amending the Higher Education 
Act of 1965. Those changes would:
     Eliminate the share of outstanding guaranteed student loan 
amounts that guaranty agencies are permitted to retain when they 
rehabilitate defaulted loans, increasing the share that is returned to 
the federal government; and reduce the maximum fee that a guaranty 
agency can charge borrowers to cover the administrative costs of 
collections for loans being rehabilitated.
     Eliminate mandatory payments, authorized through 2019, to 
nonprofit organizations that service student loans. Although this 
provision would reduce direct spending by an estimated $3.1 billion 
over the 2014-2023 period, those loans would still need to be serviced. 
As a result, CBO estimates that implementing this provision would 
require additional discretionary appropriations of roughly the same 
magnitude as the mandatory funding that would be eliminated.
Title VI--Transportation
    Title VI would amend provisions of the Aviation and Transportation 
Security Act pertaining to security-related fees and would repeal a 
current requirement for compensation related to shipping of food aid. 
Together, those provisions would reduce direct spending by $13.4 
billion over the 2014-2023 period. This title would:
     Increase security-related fees charged to air passengers 
and repeal other fees paid by air carriers, resulting in an overall net 
increase in fees. It would amend current law to direct the 
Transportation Security Administration (TSA) to collect a specified 
portion of such fees, without further appropriation, which would be 
recorded as offsetting receipts--a credit against direct spending. (The 
remaining portion of TSA fees would continue to be subject to 
appropriation action.)
     Repeal the requirement that the Maritime Administration 
pay certain costs to compensate the Department of Agriculture to 
transport food aid on ships registered in the United States rather than 
ships registered in other countries.
Title VII--Miscellaneous Provisions
    Title VII would make changes affecting customs fees, pensions, and 
health care for federal employees, among other things. CBO and JCT 
estimate that those provisions would reduce direct spending by $19.3 
billion over the 2014-2023 period.
     Section 701 would extend the authority of Customs and 
Border Protection (within the Department of Homeland Security) to 
collect certain fees. That authority, which is set to expire in October 
of 2021, would be extended through fiscal year 2023.
     Section 703 would raise rates for both variable and flat 
rate premiums paid by sponsors of defined benefit pension plans to the 
Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation, and increase the cap on the 
variable rate premium.
     Section 704 would permanently cancel authority to spend 
certain unobligated balances from the Treasury Forfeiture Fund and the 
Assets Forfeiture Fund.
     Section 705 would establish a fee to offset the cost to 
the U.S. Department of Agriculture of providing conservation assistance 
to owners of private lands.
     Section 706 would add a two-person ``self plus one'' 
coverage option for federal employees and retirees under the Federal 
Employees Health Benefits (FEHB) program. CBO estimates that option 
would be priced below the ``self plus family'' option currently 
available. However, the ``self plus family'' option would become more 
costly than under current law because the average number of people 
covered by policies of that type would rise. CBO expects that federal 
retirees would be more likely than active federal employees to switch 
to ``self plus one'' policies. As a result, the average cost of FEHB 
policies for federal retirees would be lower than under current law, 
and the average cost of FEHB policies for active federal employees 
would be higher than under current law.
    The provision would reduce direct spending because the government 
contribution for health benefits for federal retirees is classified as 
direct spending. On the other hand, implementing the provision would 
increase spending subject to appropriation, assuming appropriation of 
the necessary funds, because the government contribution for health 
benefits for active federal employees is classified as discretionary 
spending.
                      pay-as-you-go considerations
    The Statutory Pay-As-You-Go Act of 2010 establishes budget-
reporting and enforcement procedures for legislation affecting direct 
spending or revenues. Although enacting the legislation would affect 
both direct spending and revenues, pay-as-you-go procedures do not 
apply because the legislation specifies that its budgetary effects 
shall not be entered onto the scorecards maintained under the Statutory 
Pay-As-You-Go Act.
              intergovernmental and private-sector impact
    The legislation contains no intergovernmental mandates as defined 
in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act. It would, however, impose mandates 
on private entities by increasing or extending some government fees. 
The legislation would increase the fee paid by airline passengers for 
security services and increase insurance premiums paid by sponsors of 
defined-benefit pension plans to the Pension Benefit Guaranty 
Corporation.
    CBO estimates that the cost of those mandates would total more than 
$1 billion in fiscal year 2015 and more than $2 billion annually 
beginning in fiscal year 2016. The legislation also would extend 
through fiscal year 2023 the customs users fees that are set to expire 
in October of 2021 under current law. The cost of the mandate to users 
of customs services would exceed $3 billion in each of fiscal years 
2022 and 2023. Consequently, the aggregate cost of the mandates in the 
legislation would significantly exceed the annual threshold established 
in UMRA for private-sector mandates ($150 million in 2013, adjusted 
annually for inflation).

Estimates assume enactment near the end of calendar year 2013, and are relative to CBO's May 2013 baseline.

a. Section 403 would also reduce discretionary accrual payments to the Military Retirement Fund by about $8 billion over the 2015-2023 period. If,
  within the discretionary caps, the reduction in accrual payments makes possible an offsetting increase in other appropriations, the net effect would
  be an increase in outlays--because an intragovernmental payment would be replaced by spending that goes outside the government.
b. Section 502 would eliminate mandatory payments to nonprofit organizations that service student loans but would not change the need for loan
  servicing. Because the Department of Education would still need to make those payments to loan servicers, CBO estimates that this provision would
  result in additional appropriations that would be roughly the same magnitude as the mandatory funding that is being eliminated.

    In the House, the chair of the Committee on the Budget may 
revise the allocations, aggregates, and other appropriate 
levels in this concurrent resolution to accommodate the 
enactment of a deficit and long-term debt reduction agreement 
if it includes permanent spending reductions and reforms to 
direct spending programs.

                 TITLE V--ESTIMATES OF DIRECT SPENDING

SEC. 501. DIRECT SPENDING.

    (a) Means-tested Direct Spending.--
            (1) For means-tested direct spending, the average 
        rate of growth in the total level of outlays during the 
        10-year period preceding fiscal year 2014 is 6.7 
        percent.
            (2) For means-tested direct spending, the estimated 
        average rate of growth in the total level of outlays 
        during the 10-year period beginning with fiscal year 
        2014 is 6.2 percent under current law.
            (3) The following reforms are proposed in this 
        concurrent resolution for means-tested direct spending:
                    (A) In 1996, a Republican Congress and a 
                Democratic president reformed welfare by 
                limiting the duration of benefits, giving 
                States more control over the program, and 
                helping recipients find work. In the five years 
                following passage, child-poverty rates fell, 
                welfare caseloads fell, and workers' wages 
                increased. This budget applies the lessons of 
                welfare reform to both the Supplemental 
                Nutrition Assistance Program and Medicaid.
                    (B) For Medicaid, this budget converts the 
                Federal share of Medicaid spending into a 
                flexible State allotment tailored to meet each 
                State's needs, indexed for inflation and 
                population growth. Such a reform would end the 
                misguided one-size-fits-all approach that has 
                tied the hands of State governments. Instead, 
                each State would have the freedom and 
                flexibility to tailor a Medicaid program that 
                fits the needs of its unique population. 
                Moreover, this budget repeals the Medicaid 
                expansions in the President's health care law, 
                relieving State governments of its crippling 
                one-size-fits-all enrollment mandates.
                    (C) For the Supplemental Nutrition 
                Assistance Program, this budget converts the 
                program into a flexible State allotment 
                tailored to meet each State's needs, increases 
                in the Department of Agriculture Thrifty Food 
                Plan index and beneficiary growth. Such a 
                reform would provide incentives for States to 
                ensure dollars will go towards those who need 
                them most. Additionally, it requires that more 
                stringent work requirements and time limits 
                apply under the program.
    (b) Nonmeans-tested Direct Spending.--
            (1) For nonmeans-tested direct spending, the 
        average rate of growth in the total level of outlays 
        during the 10-year period preceding fiscal year 2014 is 
        5.9 percent.
            (2) For nonmeans-tested direct spending, the 
        estimated average rate of growth in the total level of 
        outlays during the 10-year period beginning with fiscal 
        year 2014 is 5.3 percent under current law.
            (3) The following reforms are proposed in this 
        concurrent resolution for nonmeans-tested direct 
        spending:
                    (A) For Medicare, this budget advances 
                policies to put seniors, not the Federal 
                Government, in control of their health care 
                decisions. Those in or near retirement will see 
                no changes, while future retirees would be 
                given a choice of private plans competing 
                alongside the traditional fee-for-service 
                Medicare program. Medicare would provide a 
                premium-support payment either to pay for or 
                offset the premium of the plan chosen by the 
                senior, depending on the plan's cost. The 
                Medicare premium-support payment would be 
                adjusted so that the sick would receive higher 
                payments if their conditions worsened; lower-
                income seniors would receive additional 
                assistance to help cover out-of-pocket costs; 
                and wealthier seniors would assume 
                responsibility for a greater share of their 
                premiums. Putting seniors in charge of how 
                their health care dollars are spent will force 
                providers to compete against each other on 
                price and quality. This market competition will 
                act as a real check on widespread waste and 
                skyrocketing health care costs.
                    (B) In keeping with a recommendation from 
                the National Commission on Fiscal 
                Responsibility and Reform, this budget calls 
                for Federal employees--including Members of 
                Congress and congressional staff--to make 
                greater contributions toward their own 
                retirement.

                      TITLE VI--BUDGET ENFORCEMENT

SEC. 601. LIMITATION ON ADVANCE APPROPRIATIONS.

    (a) Findings.--The House finds the following:
            (1) The Veterans Health Care Budget and Reform 
        Transparency Act of 2009 provides advance 
        appropriations for the following veteran medical care 
        accounts: Medical Services, Medical Support and 
        Compliance, and Medical Facilities.
            (2) The President has yet to submit a budget 
        request as required under section 1105(a) of title 31, 
        United States Code, including the request for the 
        Department of Veterans Affairs, for fiscal year 2014, 
        hence the request for veteran medical care advance 
        appropriations for fiscal year 2015 is unavailable as 
        of the writing of this concurrent resolution.
            (3) This concurrent resolution reflects the most 
        up-to-date estimate on veterans' health care needs 
        included in the President's fiscal year 2013 request 
        for fiscal year 2015.
    (b) In General.--In the House, except as provided for in 
subsection (c), any bill or joint resolution, or amendment 
thereto or conference report thereon, making a general 
appropriation or continuing appropriation may not provide for 
advance appropriations.
    (c) Exceptions.--An advance appropriation may be provided 
for programs, projects, activities, or accounts referred to in 
subsection (d)(1) or identified in the report to accompany this 
concurrent resolution or the joint explanatory statement of 
managers to accompany this concurrent resolution under the 
heading ``Accounts Identified for Advance Appropriations''.
    (d) Limitations.--For fiscal year 2015, the aggregate level 
of advance appropriations shall not exceed--
            (1) $55,483,000,000 for the following programs in 
        the Department of Veterans Affairs--
                    (A) Medical Services;
                    (B) Medical Support and Compliance; and
                    (C) Medical Facilities accounts of the 
                Veterans Health Administration; and
            (2) $28,852,000,000 in new budget authority for all 
        programs identified pursuant to subsection (c).
    (e) Definition.--In this section, the term ``advance 
appropriation'' means any new discretionary budget authority 
provided in a bill or joint resolution, or amendment thereto or 
conference report thereon, making general appropriations or any 
new discretionary budget authority provided in a bill or joint 
resolution making continuing appropriations for fiscal year 
2015.

SEC. 602. CONCEPTS AND DEFINITIONS.

    Upon the enactment of any bill or joint resolution 
providing for a change in budgetary concepts or definitions, 
the chair of the Committee on the Budget may adjust any 
allocations, aggregates, and other appropriate levels in this 
concurrent resolution accordingly.

SEC. 603. ADJUSTMENTS OF AGGREGATES, ALLOCATIONS, AND APPROPRIATE 
                    BUDGETARY LEVELS.

    (a) Adjustments of Discretionary and Direct Spending 
Levels.--If a committee (other than the Committee on 
Appropriations) reports a bill or joint resolution, or 
amendment thereto or conference report thereon, providing for a 
decrease in direct spending (budget authority and outlays 
flowing therefrom) for any fiscal year and also provides for an 
authorization of appropriations for the same purpose, upon the 
enactment of such measure, the chair of the Committee on the 
Budget may decrease the allocation to such committee and 
increase the allocation of discretionary spending (budget 
authority and outlays flowing therefrom) to the Committee on 
Appropriations for fiscal year 2014 by an amount equal to the 
new budget authority (and outlays flowing therefrom) provided 
for in a bill or joint resolution making appropriations for the 
same purpose.
    (b) Adjustments to Implement Discretionary Spending Caps 
and to Fund Veterans' Programs and Overseas Contingency 
Operations/Global War on Terrorism.--
            (1) Findings.--(A) The President has not submitted 
        a budget for fiscal year 2014 as required pursuant to 
        section 1105(a) of title 31, United States Code, by the 
        date set forth in that section.
            (B) In missing the statutory date by which the 
        budget must be submitted, this will be the fourth time 
        in five years the President has not complied with that 
        deadline.
            (C) This concurrent resolution reflects the levels 
        of funding for veterans' medical programs as set forth 
        in the President's fiscal year 2013 budget request.
            (2) President's budget submission.--In order to 
        take into account any new information included in the 
        budget submission by the President for fiscal year 
        2014, the chair of the Committee on the Budget may 
        adjust the allocations, aggregates, and other 
        appropriate budgetary levels for veterans' programs, 
        Overseas Contingency Operations/Global War on 
        Terrorism, or the 302(a) allocation to the Committee on 
        Appropriations set forth in the report of this 
        concurrent resolution to conform with section 251(c) of 
        the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act 
        of 1985 (as adjusted by section 251A of such Act).
            (3) Revised congressional budget office baseline.--
        The chair of the Committee on the Budget may adjust the 
        allocations, aggregates, and other appropriate 
        budgetary levels to reflect changes resulting from 
        technical and economic assumptions in the most recent 
        baseline published by the Congressional Budget Office.
    (c) Determinations.--For the purpose of enforcing this 
concurrent resolution on the budget in the House, the 
allocations and aggregate levels of new budget authority, 
outlays, direct spending, new entitlement authority, revenues, 
deficits, and surpluses for fiscal year 2014 and the period of 
fiscal years 2014 through fiscal year 2023 shall be determined 
on the basis of estimates made by the chair of the Committee on 
the Budget and such chair may adjust such applicable levels of 
this concurrent resolution.

SEC. 604. LIMITATION ON LONG-TERM SPENDING.

    (a) In General.--In the House, it shall not be in order to 
consider a bill or joint resolution reported by a committee 
(other than the Committee on Appropriations), or an amendment 
thereto or a conference report thereon, if the provisions of 
such measure have the net effect of increasing direct spending 
in excess of $5,000,000,000 for any period described in 
subsection (b).
    (b) Time Periods.--The applicable periods for purposes of 
this section are any of the four consecutive ten fiscal-year 
periods beginning with fiscal year 2024.

SEC. 605. BUDGETARY TREATMENT OF CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS.

    (a) In General.--Notwithstanding section 302(a)(1) of the 
Congressional Budget Act of 1974, section 13301 of the Budget 
Enforcement Act of 1990, and section 4001 of the Omnibus Budget 
Reconciliation Act of 1989, the report accompanying this 
concurrent resolution on the budget or the joint explanatory 
statement accompanying the conference report on any concurrent 
resolution on the budget shall include in its allocation under 
section 302(a) of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 to the 
Committee on Appropriations amounts for the discretionary 
administrative expenses of the Social Security Administration 
and the United States Postal Service.
    (b) Special Rule.--For purposes of applying sections 302(f) 
and 311 of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, estimates of 
the level of total new budget authority and total outlays 
provided by a measure shall include any off-budget 
discretionary amounts.
    (c) Adjustments.--The chair of the Committee on the Budget 
may adjust the allocations, aggregates, and other appropriate 
levels for legislation reported by the Committee on Oversight 
and Government Reform that reforms the Federal retirement 
system, if such adjustments do not cause a net increase in the 
deficit for fiscal year 2014 and the period of fiscal years 
2014 through 2023.

SEC. 606. APPLICATION AND EFFECT OF CHANGES IN ALLOCATIONS AND 
                    AGGREGATES.

    (a) Application.--Any adjustments of the allocations, 
aggregates, and other appropriate levels made pursuant to this 
concurrent resolution shall--
            (1) apply while that measure is under 
        consideration;
            (2) take effect upon the enactment of that measure; 
        and
            (3) be published in the Congressional Record as 
        soon as practicable.
    (b) Effect of Changed Allocations and Aggregates.--Revised 
allocations and aggregates resulting from these adjustments 
shall be considered for the purposes of the Congressional 
Budget Act of 1974 as allocations and aggregates included in 
this concurrent resolution.
    (c) Budget Compliance.--(1) The consideration of any bill 
or joint resolution, or amendment thereto or conference report 
thereon, for which the chair of the Committee on the Budget 
makes adjustments or revisions in the allocations, aggregates, 
and other appropriate levels of this concurrent resolution 
shall not be subject to the points of order set forth in clause 
10 of rule XXI of the Rules of the House of Representatives or 
section 604.
    (2) Section 314(f) of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 
shall not apply in the House of Representatives to any bill, 
joint resolution, or amendment that provides new budget 
authority for a fiscal year or to any conference report on any 
such bill or resolution, if--
            (A) the enactment of that bill or resolution;
            (B) the adoption and enactment of that amendment; 
        or
            (C) the enactment of that bill or resolution in the 
        form recommended in that conference report;
would not cause the appropriate allocation of new budget 
authority made pursuant to section 302(a) of such Act for that 
fiscal year to be exceeded or the sum of the limits on the 
security and non-security category in section 251A of the 
Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act as reduced 
pursuant to such section.

SEC. 607. CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE ESTIMATES.

    (a) Findings.--The House finds the following:
            (1) Costs of Federal housing loans and loan 
        guarantees are treated unequally in the budget. The 
        Congressional Budget Office uses fair-value accounting 
        to measure the costs of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, but 
        determines the cost of other Federal housing programs 
        on the basis of the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990 
        (``FCRA'').
            (2) The fair-value accounting method uses discount 
        rates which incorporate the risk inherent to the type 
        of liability being estimated in addition to Treasury 
        discount rates of the proper maturity length. In 
        contrast, cash-basis accounting solely uses the 
        discount rates of the Treasury, failing to incorporate 
        risks such as prepayment and default risk.
            (3) The Congressional Budget Office estimates that 
        the $635 billion of loans and loan guarantees issued in 
        2013 alone would generate budgetary savings of $45 
        billion over their lifetime using FCRA accounting. 
        However, these same loans and loan guarantees would 
        have a lifetime cost of $11 billion under fair-value 
        methodology.
            (4) The majority of loans and guarantees issued in 
        2013 would show deficit reduction of $9.1 billion under 
        FCRA methodology, but would increase the deficit by 
        $4.7 billion using fair-value accounting.
    (b) Fair Value Estimates.--Upon the request of the chair or 
ranking member of the Committee on the Budget, any estimate 
prepared by the Director of the Congressional Budget Office for 
a measure under the terms of title V of the Congressional 
Budget Act of 1974, ``credit reform'', as a supplement to such 
estimate shall, to the extent practicable, also provide an 
estimate of the current actual or estimated market values 
representing the ``fair value'' of assets and liabilities 
affected by such measure.
    (c) Fair Value Estimates for Housing Programs.--Whenever 
the Director of the Congressional Budget Office prepares an 
estimate pursuant to section 402 of the Congressional Budget 
Act of 1974 of the costs which would be incurred in carrying 
out any bill or joint resolution and if the Director determines 
that such bill or joint resolution has a cost related to a 
housing or residential mortgage program under the FCRA, then 
the Director shall also provide an estimate of the current 
actual or estimated market values representing the ``fair 
value'' of assets and liabilities affected by the provisions of 
such bill or joint resolution that result in such cost.
    (d) Enforcement.--If the Director of the Congressional 
Budget Office provides an estimate pursuant to subsection (b) 
or (c), the chair of the Committee on the Budget may use such 
estimate to determine compliance with the Congressional Budget 
Act of 1974 and other budgetary enforcement controls.

SEC. 608. TRANSFERS FROM THE GENERAL FUND OF THE TREASURY TO THE 
                    HIGHWAY TRUST FUND THAT INCREASE PUBLIC 
                    INDEBTEDNESS.

    For purposes of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, the 
Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, or 
the rules or orders of the House of Representatives, a bill or 
joint resolution, or an amendment thereto or conference report 
thereon, that transfers funds from the general fund of the 
Treasury to the Highway Trust Fund shall be counted as new 
budget authority and outlays equal to the amount of the 
transfer in the fiscal year the transfer occurs.

SEC. 609. SEPARATE ALLOCATION FOR OVERSEAS CONTINGENCY OPERATIONS/
                    GLOBAL WAR ON TERRORISM.

    (a) Allocation.--In the House, there shall be a separate 
allocation to the Committee on Appropriations for overseas 
contingency operations/global war on terrorism. For purposes of 
enforcing such separate allocation under section 302(f) of the 
Congressional Budget Act of 1974, the ``first fiscal year'' and 
the ``total of fiscal years'' shall be deemed to refer to 
fiscal year 2014. Such separate allocation shall be the 
exclusive allocation for overseas contingency operations/global 
war on terrorism under section 302(a) of such Act. Section 
302(c) of such Act shall not apply to such separate allocation. 
The Committee on Appropriations may provide suballocations of 
such separate allocation under section 302(b) of such Act. 
Spending that counts toward the allocation established by this 
section shall be designated pursuant to section 
251(b)(2)(A)(ii) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit 
Control Act of 1985.
    (b) Adjustment.--In the House, for purposes of subsection 
(a) for fiscal year 2014, no adjustment shall be made under 
section 314(a) of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 if any 
adjustment would be made under section 251(b)(2)(A)(ii) of the 
Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985.

SEC. 610. EXERCISE OF RULEMAKING POWERS.

    The House adopts the provisions of this title--
            (1) as an exercise of the rulemaking power of the 
        House of Representatives and as such they shall be 
        considered as part of the rules of the House of 
        Representatives, and these rules shall supersede other 
        rules only to the extent that they are inconsistent 
        with other such rules; and
            (2) with full recognition of the constitutional 
        right of the House of Representatives to change those 
        rules at any time, in the same manner, and to the same 
        extent as in the case of any other rule of the House of 
        Representatives.

                      TITLE VII--POLICY STATEMENTS

SEC. 701. POLICY STATEMENT ON ECONOMIC GROWTH AND JOB CREATION.

    (a) Findings.--The House finds the following:
            (1) Although the U.S. economy technically emerged 
        from recession roughly four years ago, the recovery has 
        felt more like a malaise than a rebound with the 
        unemployment rate still elevated and real economic 
        growth essentially flat in the final quarter of 2012.
            (2) The enormous build-up of Government debt in the 
        past four years has worsened the already unsustainable 
        course of Federal finances and is an increasing drag on 
        the U.S. economy.
            (3) During the recession and early stages of 
        recovery, the Government took a variety of measures to 
        try to boost economic activity. Despite the fact that 
        these stimulus measures added over $1 trillion to the 
        debt, the economy continues to perform at a sub-par 
        trend.
            (4) Investors and businesses make decisions on a 
        forward-looking basis. They know that today's large 
        debt levels are simply tomorrow's tax hikes, interest 
        rate increases, or inflation - and they act 
        accordingly. It is this debt overhang, and the 
        uncertainty it generates, that is weighing on U.S. 
        growth, investment, and job creation.
            (5) Economists have found that the key to jump-
        starting U.S. economic growth and job creation is 
        tangible action to rein in the growth of Government 
        spending with the aim of getting debt under control.
            (6) Stanford economist John Taylor has concluded 
        that reducing Government spending now would ``reduce 
        the threats of higher taxes, higher interest rates and 
        a fiscal crisis'', and would therefore provide an 
        immediate stimulus to the economy.
            (7) Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke has 
        stated that putting in place a credible plan to reduce 
        future deficits ``would not only enhance economic 
        performance in the long run, but could also yield near-
        term benefits by leading to lower long-term interest 
        rates and increased consumer and business confidence.''
            (8) Lowering spending would boost market confidence 
        and lessen uncertainty, leading to a spark in economic 
        expansion, job creation, and higher wages and income.
    (b) Policy on Economic Growth and Job Creation.--It is the 
policy of this resolution to promote faster economic growth and 
job creation. By putting the budget on a sustainable path, this 
resolution ends the debt-fueled uncertainty holding back job 
creators. Reforms to the tax code put American businesses and 
workers in a better position to compete and thrive in the 21st 
century global economy. This resolution targets the regulatory 
red tape and cronyism that stack the deck in favor of special 
interests. All of the reforms in this resolution serve as means 
to the larger end of growing the economy and expanding 
opportunity for all Americans.

SEC. 702. POLICY STATEMENT ON TAX REFORM.

    (a) Findings.--The House finds the following:
            (1) A world-class tax system should be simple, 
        fair, and promote (rather than impede) economic growth. 
        The U.S. tax code fails on all three counts - it is 
        notoriously complex, patently unfair, and highly 
        inefficient. The tax code's complexity distorts 
        decisions to work, save, and invest, which leads to 
        slower economic growth, lower wages, and less job 
        creation.
            (2) Since 2001 alone, there have been more than 
        3,250 changes to the code. Many of the major changes 
        over the years have involved carving out special 
        preferences, exclusions, or deductions for various 
        activities or groups. These loopholes add up to more 
        than $1 trillion per year and make the code unfair, 
        inefficient, and very complex.
            (3) These tax preferences are disproportionately 
        used by upper-income individuals. For instance, the top 
        1 percent of taxpayers reap about 3 times as much 
        benefit from special tax credits and deductions 
        (excluding refundable credits) than the middle class 
        and 13 times as much benefit than the lowest income 
        quintile.
            (4) The large amount of tax preferences that 
        pervade the code end up narrowing the tax base by as 
        much as 50 percent. A narrow tax base, in turn, 
        requires much higher tax rates to raise a given amount 
        of revenue.
            (5) The National Taxpayer Advocate reports that 
        taxpayers spent 6.1 billion hours in 2012 complying 
        with tax requirements.
            (6) Standard economic theory shows that high 
        marginal tax rates dampen the incentives to work, save, 
        and invest, which reduces economic output and job 
        creation. Lower economic output, in turn, mutes the 
        intended revenue gain from higher marginal tax rates.
            (7) Roughly half of U.S. active business income and 
        half of private sector employment are derived from 
        business entities (such as partnerships, S 
        corporations, and sole proprietorships) that are taxed 
        on a ``pass-through'' basis, meaning the income flows 
        through to the tax returns of the individual owners and 
        is taxed at the individual rate structure rather than 
        at the corporate rate. Small businesses in particular 
        tend to choose this form for Federal tax purposes, and 
        the top Federal rate on such small business income 
        reaches 44.6 percent. For these reasons, sound economic 
        policy requires lowering marginal rates on these pass-
        through entities.
            (8) The U.S. corporate income tax rate (including 
        Federal, State, and local taxes) sums to just over 39 
        percent, the highest rate in the industrialized world. 
        The total Federal marginal tax rate on corporate income 
        now reaches 55 percent, when including the shareholder-
        level tax on dividends and capital gains. Tax rates 
        this high suppress wages and discourage investment and 
        job creation, distort business activity, and put 
        American businesses at a competitive disadvantage with 
        foreign competitors.
            (9) By deterring potential investment, the U.S. 
        corporate tax restrains economic growth and job 
        creation. The U.S. tax rate differential with other 
        countries also fosters a variety of complicated 
        multinational corporate behaviors intended to avoid the 
        tax, which have the effect of moving the tax base 
        offshore, destroying American jobs, and decreasing 
        corporate revenue.
            (10) The ``worldwide'' structure of U.S. 
        international taxation essentially taxes earnings of 
        U.S. firms twice, putting them at a significant 
        competitive disadvantage with competitors with more 
        competitive international tax systems.
            (11) Reforming the U.S. tax code to a more 
        competitive international system would boost the 
        competitiveness of U.S. companies operating abroad and 
        it would also greatly reduce tax avoidance.
            (12) The tax code imposes costs on American workers 
        through lower wages, on consumers in higher prices, and 
        on investors in diminished returns.
            (13) Revenues have averaged 18 percent of the 
        economy throughout modern American history. Revenues 
        rise above this level under current law to 19.1 percent 
        of the economy, and - if the spending restraints in 
        this budget are enacted - this level is sufficient to 
        fund Government operations over time.
            (14) Attempting to raise revenue through tax 
        increases to meet out-of-control spending would sink 
        the economy.
            (15) Closing tax loopholes to fund spending does 
        not constitute fundamental tax reform.
            (16) The goal of tax reform should be to curb or 
        eliminate loopholes and use those savings to lower tax 
        rates across the board - not to fund more wasteful 
        Government spending. Tax reform should be revenue-
        neutral and should not be an excuse to raise taxes on 
        the American people.
    (b) Policy on Tax Reform.--It is the policy of this 
resolution that Congress should enact legislation during fiscal 
year 2014 that provides for a comprehensive reform of the U.S. 
tax code to promote economic growth, create American jobs, 
increase wages, and benefit American consumers, investors, and 
workers through revenue-neutral fundamental tax reform, which 
should be reported by the Committee on Ways and Means to the 
House not later than December 31, 2013, that--
            (1) simplifies the tax code to make it fairer to 
        American families and businesses and reduces the amount 
        of time and resources necessary to comply with tax 
        laws;
            (2) substantially lowers tax rates for individuals, 
        with a goal of achieving a top individual rate of 25 
        percent and consolidating the current seven individual 
        income tax brackets into two brackets with a first 
        bracket of 10 percent;
            (3) repeals the Alternative Minimum Tax;
            (4) reduces the corporate tax rate to 25 percent; 
        and
            (5) transitions the tax code to a more competitive 
        system of international taxation.

SEC. 703. POLICY STATEMENT ON MEDICARE.

    (a) Findings.--The House finds the following:
            (1) More than 50 million Americans depend on 
        Medicare for their health security.
            (2) The Medicare Trustees Report has repeatedly 
        recommended that Medicare's long-term financial 
        challenges be addressed soon. Each year without reform, 
        the financial condition of Medicare becomes more 
        precarious and the threat to those in or near 
        retirement becomes more pronounced. According to the 
        Congressional Budget Office--
                    (A) the Hospital Insurance Trust Fund will 
                be exhausted in 2023 and unable to pay 
                scheduled benefits; and
                    (B) Medicare spending is growing faster 
                than the economy and Medicare outlays are 
                currently rising at a rate of 6.2 percent per 
                year, and under the Congressional Budget 
                Office's alternative fiscal scenario, direct 
                spending on Medicare is projected to exceed 7 
                percent of GDP by 2040 and reach 13 percent of 
                GDP by 2085.
            (3) The President's health care law created a new 
        Federal agency called the Independent Payment Advisory 
        Board (``IPAB'') empowered with unilateral authority to 
        cut Medicare spending. As a result of that law--
                    (A) IPAB will be tasked with keeping the 
                Medicare per capita growth below a Medicare per 
                capita target growth rate. Prior to 2018, the 
                target growth rate is based on the five-year 
                average of overall inflation and medical 
                inflation. Beginning in 2018, the target growth 
                rate will be the five-year average increase in 
                the nominal Gross Domestic Product (GDP) plus 
                one percentage point;
                    (B) the fifteen unelected, unaccountable 
                bureaucrats of IPAB will make decisions that 
                will reduce seniors access to care;
                    (C) the nonpartisan Office of the Medicare 
                Chief Actuary estimates that the provider cuts 
                already contained in the Affordable Care Act 
                will force 15 percent of hospitals, skilled 
                nursing facilities, and home health agencies to 
                close in 2019; and
                    (D) additional cuts from the IPAB board 
                will force even more health care providers to 
                close their doors, and the Board should be 
                repealed.
            (4) Failing to address this problem will leave 
        millions of American seniors without adequate health 
        security and younger generations burdened with enormous 
        debt to pay for spending levels that cannot be 
        sustained.
    (b) Policy on Medicare Reform.--It is the policy of this 
resolution to protect those in or near retirement from any 
disruptions to their Medicare benefits and offer future 
beneficiaries the same health care options available to Members 
of Congress.
    (c) Assumptions.--This resolution assumes reform of the 
Medicare program such that:
            (1) Current Medicare benefits are preserved for 
        those in or near retirement.
            (2) For future generations, when they reach 
        eligibility, Medicare is reformed to provide a premium 
        support payment and a selection of guaranteed health 
        coverage options from which recipients can choose a 
        plan that best suits their needs.
            (3) Medicare will maintain traditional fee-for-
        service as an option.
            (4) Medicare will provide additional assistance for 
        lower-income beneficiaries and those with greater 
        health risks.
            (5) Medicare spending is put on a sustainable path 
        and the Medicare program becomes solvent over the long-
        term.

SEC. 704. POLICY STATEMENT ON SOCIAL SECURITY.

    (a) Findings.--The House finds the following:
            (1) More than 55 million retirees, individuals with 
        disabilities, and survivors depend on Social Security. 
        Since enactment, Social Security has served as a vital 
        leg on the ``three-legged stool'' of retirement 
        security, which includes employer provided pensions as 
        well as personal savings.
            (2) The Social Security Trustees Report has 
        repeatedly recommended that Social Security's long-term 
        financial challenges be addressed soon. Each year 
        without reform, the financial condition of Social 
        Security becomes more precarious and the threat to 
        seniors and those receiving Social Security disability 
        benefits becomes more pronounced:
                    (A) In 2016, the Disability Insurance Trust 
                Fund will be exhausted and program revenues 
                will be unable to pay scheduled benefits.
                    (B) In 2033, the combined Old-Age and 
                Survivors and Disability Trust Funds will be 
                exhausted, and program revenues will be unable 
                to pay scheduled benefits.
                    (C) With the exhaustion of the Trust Funds 
                in 2033, benefits will be cut 25 percent across 
                the board, devastating those currently in or 
                near retirement and those who rely on Social 
                Security the most.
            (3) The recession and continued low economic growth 
        have exacerbated the looming fiscal crisis facing 
        Social Security. The most recent CBO projections find 
        that Social Security will run cash deficits of $1.319 
        trillion over the next 10 years.
            (4) Lower-income Americans rely on Social Security 
        for a larger proportion of their retirement income. 
        Therefore, reforms should take into consideration the 
        need to protect lower-income Americans' retirement 
        security.
            (5) The Disability Insurance program provides an 
        essential income safety net for those with disabilities 
        and their families. According to the Congressional 
        Budget Office (CBO), between 1970 and 2012, the number 
        of people receiving disability benefits (both disabled 
        workers and their dependent family members) has 
        increased by over 300 percent from 2.7 million to over 
        10.9 million. This increase is not due strictly to 
        population growth or decreases in health. David Autor 
        and Mark Duggan have found that the increase in 
        individuals on disability does not reflect a decrease 
        in self-reported health. CBO attributes program growth 
        to changes in demographics, changes in the composition 
        of the labor force and compensation, as well as Federal 
        policies.
            (6) If this program is not reformed, families who 
        rely on the lifeline that disability benefits provide 
        will face benefit cuts of up to 25 percent in 2016, 
        devastating individuals who need assistance the most.
            (7) Americans deserve action by the President, the 
        House, and the Senate to preserve and strengthen Social 
        Security. It is critical that bipartisan action be 
        taken to address the looming insolvency of Social 
        Security. In this spirit, this resolution creates a 
        bipartisan opportunity to find solutions by requiring 
        policymakers to ensure that Social Security remains a 
        critical part of the safety net.
    (b) Policy Statement on Social Security.--It is the policy 
of this resolution that Congress should work on a bipartisan 
basis to make Social Security sustainably solvent. This 
resolution assumes reform of a current law trigger, such that:
            (1) If in any year the Board of Trustees of the 
        Federal Old-Age and Survivors Insurance Trust Fund and 
        the Federal Disability Insurance Trust Fund annual 
        Trustees Report determines that the 75-year actuarial 
        balance of the Social Security Trust Funds is in 
        deficit, and the annual balance of the Social Security 
        Trust Funds in the 75th year is in deficit, the Board 
        of Trustees shall, no later than September 30 of the 
        same calendar year, submit to the President 
        recommendations for statutory reforms necessary to 
        achieve a positive 75-year actuarial balance and a 
        positive annual balance in the 75th-year. 
        Recommendations provided to the President must be 
        agreed upon by both Public Trustees of the Board of 
        Trustees.
            (2) Not later than December 1 of the same calendar 
        year in which the Board of Trustees submit their 
        recommendations, the President shall promptly submit 
        implementing legislation to both Houses of Congress 
        including his recommendations necessary to achieve a 
        positive 75-year actuarial balance and a positive 
        annual balance in the 75th year. The Majority Leader of 
        the Senate and the Majority Leader of the House shall 
        introduce the President's legislation upon receipt.
            (3) Within 60 days of the President submitting 
        legislation, the committees of jurisdiction to which 
        the legislation has been referred shall report the bill 
        which shall be considered by the full House or Senate 
        under expedited procedures.
            (4) Legislation submitted by the President shall--
                    (A) protect those in or near retirement;
                    (B) preserve the safety net for those who 
                count on Social Security the most, including 
                those with disabilities and survivors;
                    (C) improve fairness for participants;
                    (D) reduce the burden on, and provide 
                certainty for, future generations; and
                    (E) secure the future of the Disability 
                Insurance program while addressing the needs of 
                those with disabilities today and improving the 
                determination process.

SEC. 705. POLICY STATEMENT ON HIGHER EDUCATION AFFORDABILITY.

    (a) Findings.--The House finds the following:
            (1) A well-educated workforce is critical to 
        economic, job, and wage growth.
            (2) More than 21 million students are enrolled in 
        American colleges and universities.
            (3) Over the last decade, tuition and fees have 
        been growing at an unsustainable rate. Between the 
        2001-2002 Academic Year and the 2011-2012 Academic 
        Year:
                    (A) Published tuition and fees for in-State 
                students at public four-year colleges and 
                universities increased at an average rate of 
                5.6 percent per year beyond the rate of general 
                inflation.
                    (B) Published tuition and fees for in-State 
                students at public two-year colleges and 
                universities increased at an average rate of 
                3.8 percent per year beyond the rate of general 
                inflation.
                    (C) Published tuition and fees for in-State 
                students at private four-year colleges and 
                universities increased at an average rate of 
                2.6 percent per year beyond the rate of general 
                inflation.
            (4) Over that same period, Federal financial aid 
        has increased 140 percent beyond the rate of general 
        inflation.
            (5) This spending has failed to make college more 
        affordable.
            (6) In his 2012 State of the Union Address, 
        President Obama noted that, ``We can't just keep 
        subsidizing skyrocketing tuition; we'll run out of 
        money.''
            (7) American students are chasing ever-increasing 
        tuition with ever-increasing debt. According to the 
        Federal Reserve Bank of New York, student debt nearly 
        tripled between 2004 and 2012, and now stands at nearly 
        $1 trillion. Student debt now has the second largest 
        balance after mortgage debt.
            (8) Students are carrying large debt loads and too 
        many fail to complete college or end up defaulting on 
        these loans due to their debt burden and a weak economy 
        and job market.
            (9) Based on estimates from the Congressional 
        Budget Office, the Pell Grant Program will face a 
        fiscal shortfall beginning in fiscal year 2015 and 
        continuing in each subsequent year in the current 
        budget window.
            (10) Failing to address these problems will 
        jeopardize access and affordability to higher education 
        for America's young people.
    (b) Policy on Higher Education Affordability.--It is the 
policy of this resolution to address the root drivers of 
tuition inflation, by--
            (1) targeting Federal financial aid to those most 
        in need;
            (2) streamlining programs that provide aid to make 
        them more effective;
            (3) maintaining the maximum Pell grant award level 
        at $5,645 in each year of the budget window; and
            (4) removing regulatory barriers in higher 
        education that act to restrict flexibility and 
        innovative teaching, particularly as it relates to non-
        traditional models such as online coursework and 
        competency-based learning.

SEC. 706. POLICY STATEMENT ON DEFICIT REDUCTION THROUGH THE 
                    CANCELLATION OF UNOBLIGATED BALANCES.

    (a) Findings.--The House finds the following:
            (1) According to the last available estimate from 
        the Office of Management and Budget, Federal agencies 
        were expected to hold $698 billion in unobligated 
        balances at the close of fiscal year 2013.
            (2) These funds represent direct and discretionary 
        spending made available by Congress that remains 
        available for expenditure beyond the fiscal year for 
        which they are provided.
            (3) In some cases, agencies are granted funding and 
        it remains available for obligation indefinitely.
            (4) The Congressional Budget and Impoundment 
        Control Act of 1974 requires the Office of Management 
        and Budget to make funds available to agencies for 
        obligation and prohibits the Administration from 
        withholding or cancelling unobligated funds unless 
        approved by an act of Congress.
            (5) Greater congressional oversight is required to 
        review and identify potential savings from unneeded 
        balances of funds.
    (b) Policy Statement on Deficit Reduction Through the 
Cancellation of Unobligated Balances.--Congressional committees 
shall through their oversight activities identify and achieve 
savings through the cancellation or rescission of unobligated 
balances that neither abrogate contractual obligations of the 
Government nor reduce or disrupt Federal commitments under 
programs such as Social Security, veterans' affairs, national 
security, and Treasury authority to finance the national debt.
    (c) Deficit Reduction.--Congress, with the assistance of 
the Government Accountability Office, the Inspectors General, 
and other appropriate agencies should make it a high priority 
to review unobligated balances and identify savings for deficit 
reduction.

SEC. 707. POLICY STATEMENT ON RESPONSIBLE STEWARDSHIP OF TAXPAYER 
                    DOLLARS.

    (a) Findings.--The House finds the following:
            (1) The House of Representatives cut budgets for 
        Members of Congress, House committees, and leadership 
        offices by 5 percent in 2011 and an additional 6.4 
        percent in 2012.
            (2) The House of Representatives achieved savings 
        of $36.5 million over three years by consolidating 
        House operations and renegotiating contracts.
    (b) Policy.--It is the policy of this resolution that:
            (1) The House of Representatives must be a model 
        for the responsible stewardship of taxpayer resources 
        and therefore must identify any savings that can be 
        achieved through greater productivity and efficiency 
        gains in the operation and maintenance of House 
        services and resources like printing, conferences, 
        utilities, telecommunications, furniture, grounds 
        maintenance, postage, and rent. This should include a 
        review of policies and procedures for acquisition of 
        goods and services to eliminate any unnecessary 
        spending. The Committee on House Administration should 
        review the policies pertaining to the services provided 
        to Members and committees of the House, and should 
        identify ways to reduce any subsidies paid for the 
        operation of the House gym, barber shop, salon, and the 
        House dining room.
            (2) No taxpayer funds may be used to purchase first 
        class airfare or to lease corporate jets for Members of 
        Congress.

SEC. 708. POLICY STATEMENT ON DEFICIT REDUCTION THROUGH THE REDUCTION 
                    OF UNNECESSARY AND WASTEFUL SPENDING.

    (a) Findings.--The House finds the following:
            (1) The Government Accountability Office (``GAO'') 
        is required by law to identify examples of waste, 
        duplication, and overlap in Federal programs, and has 
        so identified dozens of such examples.
            (2) In testimony before the Committee on Oversight 
        and Government Reform, the Comptroller General has 
        stated that addressing the identified waste, 
        duplication, and overlap in Federal programs ``could 
        potentially save tens of billions of dollars.''
            (3) In 2011 and 2012, the Government Accountability 
        Office issued reports showing excessive duplication and 
        redundancy in Federal programs including--
                    (A) 209 ``Science, Technology, Engineering, 
                and Mathematics'' (``STEM'') education programs 
                in 13 different Federal agencies at a cost of 
                $3 billion annually;
                    (B) 200 separate Department of Justice 
                crime prevention and victim services grant 
                programs with an annual cost of $3.9 billion in 
                2010;
                    (C) 20 different Federal entities 
                administer 160 housing programs and other forms 
                of Federal assistance for housing with a total 
                cost of $170 billion in 2010;
                    (D) 17 separate Homeland Security 
                preparedness grant programs that spent $37 
                billion between fiscal year 2011 and 2012;
                    (E) 13 programs, 3 tax benefits, and one 
                loan program to reduce diesel emissions; and
                    (F) 94 different initiatives run by 11 
                different agencies to encourage ``green 
                building'' in the private sector.
            (4) The Federal Government spends about $80 billion 
        each year for information technology. GAO has 
        identified broad acquisition failures, waste, and 
        unnecessary duplication in the Government's information 
        technology infrastructure. Experts have estimated that 
        eliminating these problems could save 25 percent - or 
        $20 billion - of the Government's annual information 
        technology budget.
            (5) Federal agencies reported an estimated $108 
        billion in improper payments in fiscal year 2012.
            (6) Under clause 2 of Rule XI of the Rules of the 
        House of Representatives, each standing committee must 
        hold at least one hearing during each 120 day period 
        following its establishment on waste, fraud, abuse, or 
        mismanagement in Government programs.
            (7) According to the Congressional Budget Office, 
        by fiscal year 2014, 42 laws will expire, possibly 
        resulting in $685 billion in unauthorized 
        appropriations. Timely reauthorizations of these laws 
        would ensure assessments of program justification and 
        effectiveness.
            (8) The findings resulting from congressional 
        oversight of Federal Government programs should result 
        in programmatic changes in both authorizing statutes 
        and program funding levels.
    (b) Policy Statement on Deficit Reduction Through the 
Reduction of Unnecessary and Wasteful Spending.--Each 
authorizing committee annually shall include in its Views and 
Estimates letter required under section 301(d) of the 
Congressional Budget Act of 1974 recommendations to the 
Committee on the Budget of programs within the jurisdiction of 
such committee whose funding should be reduced or eliminated.

SEC. 709. POLICY STATEMENT ON UNAUTHORIZED SPENDING.

    It is the policy of this resolution that the committees of 
jurisdiction should review all unauthorized programs funded 
through annual appropriations to determine if the programs are 
operating efficiently and effectively. Committees should 
reauthorize those programs that in the committees' judgment 
should continue to receive funding.

               TITLE VIII--SENSE OF THE HOUSE PROVISIONS

SEC. 801. SENSE OF THE HOUSE ON THE IMPORTANCE OF CHILD SUPPORT 
                    ENFORCEMENT.

    It is the sense of the House that--
            (1) additional legislative action is needed to 
        ensure that States have the necessary resources to 
        collect all child support that is owed to families and 
        to allow them to pass 100 percent of support on to 
        families without financial penalty; and
            (2) when 100 percent of child support payments are 
        passed to the child, rather than administrative 
        expenses, program integrity is improved and child 
        support participation increases.
Passed the House of Representatives March 21, 2013.

  TITLE III--RECOMMENDED LEVELS FOR FISCAL YEARS 2030, 2040, AND 2050

SECTION 301. LONG-TERM BUDGETING

    This section sets out recommended budgetary levels for 
certain budget aggregates for each of fiscal years 2030, 2040, 
and 2050 as a percentage of the gross domestic product of the 
United States as follows:

Federal Revenues

    Fiscal Year 2030: 19.1 percent
    Fiscal Year 2040: 19.1 percent
    Fiscal Year 2050: 19.1 percent

Budget Outlays

    Fiscal Year 2030: 19.1 percent
    Fiscal Year 2040: 19.1 percent
    Fiscal Year 2050: 19.1 percent

Deficits

    Fiscal Year 2030: 0 percent
    Fiscal Year 2040: 0 percent
    Fiscal Year 2050: 0 percent

                        TITLE IV--RESERVE FUNDS

SECTION 401. RESERVE FUND FOR THE REPEAL OF THE 2010 HEALTH CARE LAWS

    This section permits the Chairman of the Committee on the 
Budget to revise allocations of spending authority, provided to 
committees of the House, and to adjust other budgetary 
enforcement levels for a measure that fully repeals the Patient 
Protection and Affordable Care Act (Public Law 111-148) and the 
health care-related provisions of the Health Care and Education 
Reconciliation Act of 2010 (Public Law 111-152). Those measures 
are the health care bills enacted into law in 2010. These 
adjustments would not be available for measures that only 
offered a partial repeal, such as a repeal of certain sections 
of these laws. The reserve fund is intended to apply to the 
health care provisions and would not apply to the repeal of the 
education-related provisions of the reconciliation act referred 
to above.
    A measure repealing the health care laws must solely 
achieve that purpose and may not include language which is 
extraneous to that purpose, whether such language has a 
budgetary effect or not. In addition, the repeal must be 
permanent and may not include a sunset date.
    Multiple measures may take advantage of the reserve fund, 
as long as each meets the parameters outlined, until such 
repeal is enacted.
    An amendment (or a motion to recommit), if it qualifies 
under the terms of this reserve fund, may be offered to an 
unrelated measure, but should such a measure as amended be 
returned to the House as a conference report or an amendment 
between the Houses, no adjustments would be made if that 
measure contained text unrelated to the purpose of this reserve 
fund which is to repeal the laws referred to above.
    A measure receiving an adjustment under the terms of this 
reserve fund may be open for amendment, subject to the special 
rule providing for its consideration, but the amendment, if it 
does not meet the terms outlined in this section, must be 
compliant with the Budget Act and the Rules of the House 
without regard to the adjustments made to the underlying 
measure.

SECTION 402. DEFICIT-NEUTRAL RESERVE FUND FOR THE REFORM OF THE 2010 
                    HEALTH CARE LAWS

    This section permits the Chairman of the Committee on the 
Budget to revise allocations of spending authority, provided to 
committees of the House, and to adjust other budgetary 
enforcement levels for a measure that reforms or replaces the 
Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (Public Law 111-148) 
or the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 
(Public Law 111-152), as long as the measure is deficit-neutral 
for the period of fiscal years 2014 through 2023. Those public 
laws are the health care bills enacted in 2010.
    For purposes of this section, if a bill, joint resolution, 
amendment or conference report fulfills the purpose of 
reforming or replacing these health care laws and is deficit 
neutral in the applicable period, then legislative text not 
related to these purposes may be included as long as the entire 
measure meets these two requirements.

SECTION 403. DEFICIT-NEUTRAL RESERVE FUND RELATED TO THE MEDICARE 
                    PROVISIONS OF THE 2010 HEALTH CARE LAWS

    This section permits the Chairman of the Committee on the 
Budget to revise allocations of spending authority, provided to 
committees of the House, and to adjust other budgetary 
enforcement levels for a measure that repeals the Medicare 
spending cuts in the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act 
(Public Law 111-148) or the Health Care and Education 
Reconciliation Act of 2010 (Public Law 111-152), as long as the 
measure is deficit-neutral for the period of fiscal years 2014 
through 2023.
    A measure that repeals only part of these Medicare spending 
reductions is also eligible for these adjustments. A series of 
bills, joint resolutions, amendments or conference reports may 
receive adjustments under this section, only limited by the 
cumulative amount of the Medicare spending reductions included 
in the public laws referenced, as estimated by the Chairman of 
the Committee on the Budget.
    Once the limit is reached through enacted measures, no more 
adjustments may be made under this reserve fund. The amount 
necessary to repeal the Medicare spending cuts is a cap on the 
adjustments that may be made under this section, but as 
measures are considered in the House that meet these terms, the 
amount is not reduced until such measure fulfilling this 
purpose is enacted.

SECTION 404. DEFICIT-NEUTRAL RESERVE FUND FOR THE SUSTAINABLE GROWTH 
                    RATE OF THE MEDICARE PROGRAM

    This section permits the Chairman of the Committee on the 
Budget to revise the allocations of spending authority provided 
to applicable committees and to adjust other budgetary 
enforcement levels in this resolution for a measure amending or 
superseding the system for updating payments under section 1848 
of the Social Security Act, as long as the measure does not 
increase the deficit in the period of fiscal years 2014 through 
2023.

SECTION 405. DEFICIT-NEUTRAL RESERVE FUND FOR REFORMING THE TAX CODE

    This section permits the Chairman of the Committee on the 
Budget to revise the allocations of spending authority provided 
to the Committee on Ways and Means and to adjust other 
budgetary enforcement levels in this resolution for bills, 
joint resolutions, amendments or conference reports reforming 
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as long as such a measure 
does not increase the deficit in the period of fiscal years 
2014 through 2023.
    Since 1997, the Rules of the House of Representatives (now 
Rule XIII, clause 3(h)(2)), have required the publication of a 
macroeconomic impact analysis from the Joint Committee on 
Taxation (JCT) of legislation amending the tax code. This 
section is designed to facilitate comprehensive, fundamental 
tax reform that significantly broadens the tax base and lowers 
tax rates (see the Revenue chapter of this report for 
additional details). Reform of this sort could have significant 
economic effects. The Chairman of the Committee on the Budget 
will consider the JCT macroeconomic impact analysis in 
determining if the conditions in this section have been met.

SECTION 406. DEFICIT-NEUTRAL RESERVE FUND FOR TRADE AGREEMENTS

    This section permits the Chairman of the Committee on the 
Budget to revise the allocations of spending authority provided 
to the Committee on Ways and Means and to adjust other 
budgetary enforcement levels in this resolution for legislation 
that implements a trade agreement, as long as such a measure 
does not increase the deficit in the period of fiscal years 
2014 through 2023.

SECTION 407. DEFICIT-NEUTRAL RESERVE FUND FOR REVENUE MEASURES

    This section permits the Chairman of the Committee on the 
Budget to revise the allocations of spending authority provided 
to the Committee on Ways and Means for legislation that causes 
a decrease in revenue. The Chairman of the Committee on the 
Budget may adjust the allocations and aggregates of this 
concurrent resolution if the measure does not increase the 
deficit in the period of fiscal years 2014 through 2023. This 
allows the Committee on Ways and Means to report a bill that 
reduces revenue below the level provided for in the concurrent 
resolution on the budget but only if it decreases outlays by an 
equal or greater amount in the applicable period.

SECTION 408. DEFICIT-NEUTRAL RESERVE FUND FOR RURAL COUNTIES AND 
                    SCHOOLS

    This concurrent resolution provides for a deficit-neutral 
reserve fund to accommodate the extension of the Secure Rural 
Schools and Community Self Determination Act of 2000 (Public 
Law 106-393) in order to provide the federal government, local 
counties, and industry the time necessary to enact, implement, 
and begin performing sustained yield harvests of federal timber 
lands on which local counties are financially dependent. The 
plan assumed by this reserve fund is based on the best 
available science, provides for active forest management to 
improve the health of the resource, creates strong local 
family-wage job markets, and provides rural counties with 
fiscal independence from federal payments owed to them because 
of a lack of timber harvests on federal lands.

SECTION 409. IMPLEMENTATION OF A DEFICIT AND LONG-TERM DEBT REDUCTION 
                    AGREEMENT

    This section permits the Chairman of the Committee on the 
Budget to revise the allocations, aggregates, and other 
appropriate levels in this resolution to accommodate the 
enactment of a deficit and long-term debt reduction agreement 
if it includes permanent spending reductions and reforms to 
direct spending programs.
    Under the Budget Control Act of 2011 (BCA), at least $1.2 
trillion in deficit reduction was to be accomplished in the 
period of fiscal years 2013 through 2021 by legislation 
recommended by a specially created Joint Select Committee on 
Deficit Reduction. When that committee was unable to meet that 
budget goal, an automatic enforcement procedure ensured that 
this deficit reduction was achieved but did so in a way that 
focused disproportionately on the 36 percent of the budget that 
is approved annually through the appropriations process.
    Under the fiscal year 2013 sequester, for example, 
discretionary spending bore fully 80 percent of the spending 
cuts and in fiscal year 2014 discretionary spending is 
estimated to absorb 84 percent of the automatic enforcement 
burden. Given the projected 78 percent growth of mandatory 
spending programs by 2023, the BCA's focus on discretionary 
spending is misplaced and inadequate to addressing the deficit 
and debt problems facing the nation. It is contemplated that an 
agreement achieving significant deficit reduction and long-term 
debt reduction will reallocate the burden of the BCA automatic 
enforcement procedures more equitably.

                 TITLE V--ESTIMATES OF DIRECT SPENDING

SECTION 501. DIRECT SPENDING

    Subsection (a) notes the average and estimated average rate 
of growth in means-tested direct spending for the 10-year 
periods before and after fiscal year 2014 respectively. It also 
proposes reforms to the means-tested category of direct 
spending.
    Subsection (b) notes the average and estimated average rate 
of growth in nonmeans-tested direct spending for the 10-year 
periods before and after fiscal year 2014 respectively. It also 
proposes reforms to the nonmeans-tested category of direct 
spending.
    This section is required under the Separate Orders of H. 
Res. 5 (113th Congress) which implements the Rules of the House 
of Representatives and is a requirement for the consideration 
of a concurrent resolution on the budget for the 113th 
Congress. See section designated `Direct Spending Trends and 
Reforms' within this report for more information on Section 
501.

                      TITLE VI--BUDGET ENFORCEMENT

SECTION 601. LIMITATION ON ADVANCE APPROPRIATIONS

    Subsection (a) sets out findings.
    Subsection (b) prohibits any general or continuing 
appropriation providing for advance appropriations that do not 
fall into certain specified exceptions.
    Subsection (c) provides the list of excepted programs that 
may receive advance appropriations. Those accounts are referred 
to in this report in the section designated as ``Accounts 
Identified for Advance Appropriations'' within this report.
    Subsection (d) specifically sets a limit on the amount of 
total allowable advance appropriations for fiscal year 2015. It 
allows advance appropriations of up to $55.483 billion for 
fiscal year 2015 for Veterans Medical Services, Veterans 
Medical Support and Compliance, and Veterans Medical Facilities 
accounts of the Veterans Health Administration. Under the terms 
of Section 603 of the concurrent resolution, this level of 
spending may be revised upon the review of the budget submitted 
by the President required under 31 U.S.C. 1105(a).
    It also allows up to $28.852 billion for the programs 
referred to in subsection (c).
    Subsection (e) defines advance appropriation as any new 
discretionary budget authority provided in a bill, joint 
resolution, amendment, or conference report making general or 
continuing appropriations for fiscal year 2015.

SECTION 602. CONCEPTS AND DEFINITIONS

    This section permits the Chairman of the Committee on the 
Budget to adjust levels and allocations in this budget 
resolution upon enactment of legislation changing concepts or 
definitions.

SECTION 603. ADJUSTMENTS OF AGGREGATES, ALLOCATIONS AND APPROPRIATE 
                    BUDGETARY LEVELS

    Subsection (a) sets out a procedure to facilitate the 
consideration of legislation subjecting direct spending to 
annual appropriations. Under current law, there are impediments 
to reclassifying direct spending as discretionary spending 
since once the direct spending is eliminated, effectively the 
purpose is eliminated as well.
    Under current practice, if the intent is to preserve the 
purpose, but authorize the program and subject it to annual 
appropriations, the Committee on Appropriations would have to 
find additional resources within its section 302(a) allocation, 
as required to be set in the report on the budget resolution by 
section 301(e)(2)(F) of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974.
    Under the terms of this subsection, should an authorizing 
committee want to retain the purpose of a direct spending 
program, but determines it should be subject to annual 
appropriations, it can, at the time it eliminates the direct 
spending, authorize appropriations for the program. If that 
elimination of the direct spending and authorization of 
appropriations is enacted, the Chairman of the Committee on the 
Budget may increase the 302(a) allocation of budgetary 
resources to the Committee on Appropriations by an amount up to 
the authorized level of appropriations for the same purpose in 
fiscal year 2014.
    This rule holds the Committee on Appropriations harmless if 
it appropriates money under the terms of that authorization 
because the allocation under section 302(a) set in this report 
is adjusted.
    Subsection (b)(1) sets out findings related to the 
statutory requirement that the President submit an annual 
budget by the first Monday in February of each year.
    Subsection (b)(2) provides authority to the Chairman of the 
Committee on the Budget to adjust the allocations, aggregates, 
and other appropriate budgetary levels as necessary once the 
President's budget request has been submitted to Congress as is 
required under section 1105(a) of Title 31 of the United States 
Code.
    The limitation on advance appropriations for veterans 
medical care in section 601(d)(1) of this concurrent resolution 
is based on information provided in the President's budget 
submitted in February 2012 and is for the fiscal year that 
begins in October of 2014. The Chairman of the Committee on the 
Budget is authorized by this section to update this limit on 
advance appropriations.
    The level of funding for Overseas Contingency Operations/
Global War on Terrorism is an estimate based on indications by 
the President pursuant to that purpose. This section authorizes 
the Chairman of the Committee on the Budget to adjust the 
relevant aggregates, allocations, and budgetary levels in this 
resolution to ensure that commitment is fulfilled.
    The levels included in this concurrent resolution on the 
budget reflect the total level of discretionary budget 
authority, prior to any authorized adjustments, provided for in 
the spending limits in section 251(c) of the Balanced Budget 
and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 (as adjusted under 
section 251A of that Act). The discretionary spending limits 
for fiscal year 2014 will be set in the fiscal year 2014 
Sequester Preview Report, which was supposed to have been 
submitted together with the President's budget on February 4, 
2013.
    In the absence of this preview report for the fiscal year 
2014 discretionary spending category limits, this resolution 
uses estimates provided by the Director of the Congressional 
Budget Office.
    This section authorizes the Chairman of the Committee on 
the Budget to adjust the allocation to the Appropriations 
Committee provided to it under section 302(a) of the 
Congressional Budget Act to reflect the preview report that 
will be included in the fiscal year 2014 President's budget 
submission.
    Subsection (b)(3) authorizes the Chairman of the Committee 
on the Budget to adjust levels and allocations in this 
concurrent resolution on the budget to reflect technical and 
economic assumptions in the most recent baseline published by 
the Congressional Budget Office.
    Subsection (c) authorizes the Chairman of the Committee on 
the Budget to determine the levels and adjustments provided for 
in this concurrent resolution on the budget.

SECTION 604. LIMITATION ON LONG-TERM SPENDING

    Subsection (a) establishes a point of order against the 
consideration of measures increasing direct spending by $5 
billion or more for any 10-year period within 40 years starting 
in fiscal year 2024.
    Subsection (b) explains that there are four consecutive 
ten-year periods as referred to in subsection (a) that would be 
as follows:
    Fiscal years 2024 through 2033;
    Fiscal years 2034 through 2043;
    Fiscal years 2044 through 2053;
    Fiscal years 2054 through 2063.

SECTION 605. BUDGETARY TREATMENT OF CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS

    Subsection (a) provides that the administrative expenses of 
the Social Security Administration and the United States Postal 
Service are reflected in the allocation to the Committee on 
Appropriations. This language is necessary to ensure that the 
Committee on Appropriations retains control of administrative 
expenses through the annual appropriations process.
    Subsection (b) provides for a special rule stating the 
allocation to the Committee on Appropriations of the House is 
enforced under the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 using 
estimates of the budgetary effects of a measure and includes 
any off-budget discretionary amounts.
    Subsection (c) allows the Chairman of the Committee on the 
Budget to adjust the spending or revenue levels of this 
concurrent resolution for legislation, if reported by the 
Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, to reform the 
Federal retirement system. The Chairman is permitted to make 
adjustments only if a measure would not cause an increase in 
the deficit in fiscal year 2014 and fiscal years 2014 through 
2023.

SECTION 606. APPLICATION AND EFFECT OF CHANGES IN ALLOCATIONS AND 
                    AGGREGATES

    Subsection (a) details the allocation and aggregate 
adjustment procedures required to accommodate legislation 
provided for in this resolution. It provides that the 
adjustments apply while the legislation is under consideration 
and take effect upon enactment of the legislation. In addition, 
this subsection requires the adjustments to be printed in the 
Congressional Record.
    Subsection (b) requires, for purposes of enforcement of the 
concurrent resolution, aggregate and allocation levels 
resulting from adjustments made pursuant to the terms of this 
resolution have the same effect as if adopted in the originally 
adopted aggregates and allocations.
    Subsection (c) provides an exemption for legislation for 
which the Chairman of the Committee on the Budget has made 
adjustments in the allocations, aggregates, and other 
appropriate budgetary levels of the resolution and that 
complies with this Concurrent Resolution on the Budget. By such 
an exemption, such legislation is subject to neither the Cut-
As-You-Go point of order (clause 10 of rule XXI of the Rules of 
the House of Representatives) nor section 604 of the concurrent 
resolution on the budget (the long-term spending point of 
order).
    In addition, this subsection (c)(2) provides that section 
314(f) of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 does not apply 
to any bill, joint resolution, amendment, or conference report 
that provides new budget authority for a fiscal year that does 
not cause the allocation of new budget authority made pursuant 
to section 302(a) of that Act for that fiscal year to be 
exceeded or the sum of the limits on the security and non-
security category in the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit 
Control Act as reduced pursuant to section 251A of that Act.
    Section 314(f) prohibits the consideration of measures that 
would cause either of the two statutory spending category 
limits, security or nonsecurity, to be breached for a fiscal 
year. The 302(a) allocation for the House Appropriations 
Committee, provided by the concurrent resolution under the 
requirements of the Budget Act, is the sum of these two 
categories. Though the section refers to the sum of the 
categories, the effect of paragraph (2) of subsection (c), the 
operative component is the test as to whether the 
Appropriations Committee is within its 302(a) allocation--if 
so, the 314(f) point of order will not apply even if one of the 
category limits, either security or nonsecurity, is exceeded by 
that measure.

SECTION 607. CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE ESTIMATES

    Subsection (a) sets out findings.
    Subsection (b) provides specific authority for the Chairman 
or Ranking Member of the Committee on the Budget to request a 
supplemental estimate for any program affecting or establishing 
Federal loans or loan guarantees. Under current law, such a 
measure would be scored on a ``net present value'' basis under 
the terms of the Federal Credit Reform Act found in Title V of 
the Congressional Budget Act of 1974. The supplemental estimate 
would be scored using a ``fair value'' basis that generally 
incorporates a more realistic market risk factor.
    Subsection (c) requires that, whenever the Congressional 
Budget Office prepares an estimate of the cost of legislation 
with a cost related to a housing or residential mortgage 
program under the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, the 
Director must also provide an estimate of the ``fair value'' of 
the assets and liabilities affected.
    Subsection (d) allows the Chairman of the Committee on the 
Budget to use the supplemental estimates to determine 
compliance with the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 and other 
budgetary enforcement controls.

SECTION 608. TRANSFERS FROM THE GENERAL FUND OF THE TREASURY TO THE 
                    HIGHWAY TRUST FUND THAT INCREASE PUBLIC 
                    INDEBTEDNESS

    This section provides that for purposes of budget 
enforcement, transfers of funds from the general fund of the 
Treasury to the Highway Trust Fund are to be counted as new 
budget authority and outlays equal to the amount of the 
transfer in the fiscal year the transfer occurs.

SECTION 609. SEPARATE ALLOCATION FOR OVERSEAS CONTINGENCY OPERATIONS/
                    GLOBAL WAR ON TERRORISM

    Subsection (a) provides for a separate section 302(a) 
allocation under the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, and is 
set out in this report in allocation tables, to the Committee 
on Appropriations for overseas contingency operations and the 
global war on terrorism (OCO/GWOT). For purposes of enforcing 
the point of order set out in section 302(f) of the 
Congressional Budget Act of 1974, the ``first fiscal year'' and 
the ``total of fiscal years'' refer to fiscal year 2014 only. 
This separate allocation is the exclusive allocation for OCO/
GWOT under section 302(a).
    It states that any provision designated as such under 
section 251(b)(2)(A)(ii) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency 
Deficit Control Act of 1985 which raises the statutory spending 
limits by the amount designated will be counted toward the 
separate OCO/GWOT allocation and not to the general section 
302(a) allocation.
    Subsection (b) provides that the procedure of adjusting the 
general 302(a) allocation under section 314 of the Budget Act 
for this purpose does not apply, as it is unnecessary with the 
special allocation.

SECTION 610. EXERCISE OF RULEMAKING POWERS

    This section provides for the general application of the 
text of this concurrent resolution on the budget.

                      TITLE VII--POLICY STATEMENTS

SECTION 701. POLICY STATEMENT ON ECONOMIC GROWTH AND JOB CREATION

    Subsection (a) sets out findings.
    Subsection (b) states the policy on promoting economic 
growth and job creation assumed by this concurrent resolution 
on the budget.

SECTION 702. POLICY STATEMENT ON TAX REFORM

    Subsection (a) sets out findings.
    Subsection (b) states the policy on tax reform assumed by 
this concurrent resolution on the budget.

SECTION 703. POLICY STATEMENT ON MEDICARE

    Subsection (a) sets out findings.
    Subsection (b) states that the policy of this concurrent 
resolution on the budget is to protect those in or near 
retirement from any disruptions to their Medicare benefits and 
offer future beneficiaries the same health care options 
available to Members of Congress.
    Subsection (c) sets out the assumptions of this concurrent 
resolution on the budget for the parameters of future Medicare 
reforms.

SECTION 704. POLICY STATEMENT ON SOCIAL SECURITY

    Subsection (a) sets out findings.
    Subsection (b) states the policy on Social Security assumed 
by this concurrent resolution on the budget.

SECTION 705. POLICY STATEMENT ON HIGHER EDUCATION AFFORDABILITY

    Subsection (a) sets out findings.
    Subsection (b) states the policy on higher education 
affordability assumed by this concurrent resolution on the 
budget.

SECTION 706. POLICY STATEMENT ON DEFICIT REDUCTION THROUGH THE 
                    CANCELLATION OF UNOBLIGATED BALANCES

    Subsection (a) sets out findings.
    Subsection (b) directs congressional committees through 
their oversight activities to identify and achieve savings 
through the cancellation or rescission of unobligated balances 
that neither abrogate contractual obligations of the Federal 
Government nor reduce or disrupt Federal commitments under 
programs such as Social Security, veterans' affairs, national 
security, and Treasury authority to finance the national debt.
    Subsection (c) provides that Congress, with the assistance 
of the Government Accountability Office, the Inspectors 
General, and other appropriate agencies should make it a high 
priority to review unobligated balances and identify savings 
for deficit reduction.
    While there is year-to-year variability, unobligated 
balances have generally been trending upwards over the past ten 
years, from $253 billion at the end of fiscal year 2000 to $725 
billion at the end of fiscal year 2011. According to the Office 
of Management and Budget, federal agencies will have an 
estimated $698 billion in unobligated balances at the close of 
fiscal year 2014, though agencies tend to overestimate their 
rate of obligations. Legislation introduced by Dr. Tom Price of 
Georgia (H.R.828) would rescind $45 billion in unobligated 
discretionary funds within 60 days of enactment. CBO has 
informally estimated that such a measure could reduce spending 
by approximately $22 billion.
    The large sums of unobligated balances indicate that there 
are major opportunities for savings to reduce the deficit. 
Additional investigation is necessary to determine what portion 
of these anticipated unobligated balances can be cancelled or 
rescinded for deficit reduction without abrogating the Federal 
Government's contractual obligations or reducing or disrupting 
federal commitments under high priority programs and Treasury's 
authority to finance the national debt.
    A reasonable goal would be to reduce unobligated balances 
by 10 percent, excluding Departments of Defense, Treasury, 
Veterans Affairs, and the Social Security Administration, to 
achieve savings for deficit reduction.

SECTION 707. POLICY STATEMENT ON RESPONSIBLE STEWARDSHIP OF TAXPAYER 
                    DOLLARS

    Subsection (a) sets out findings.
    Subsection (b) states that the policy of this concurrent 
resolution on the budget is to identify any savings that can be 
achieved through greater productivity and efficiency gains in 
the operation and maintenance of House services and resources.

SECTION 708. POLICY STATEMENT ON DEFICIT REDUCTION THROUGH THE 
                    REDUCTION OF UNNECESSARY AND WASTEFUL SPENDING

    Subsection (a) sets out findings.
    Subsection (b) states that each Congressional Committee 
shall as part of its annual Views and Estimates letter to the 
Committee on the Budget submit recommendations for reductions 
in spending that result from that committee's oversight 
activities.

SECTION 709. POLICY STATEMENT ON UNAUTHORIZED SPENDING

    This section states that the committees of jurisdiction 
should review all unauthorized programs funded through annual 
appropriations to determine if the programs are operating 
efficiently and effectively and reauthorize only those programs 
that in the committees' judgment should continue to receive 
funding.

               TITLE VIII--SENSE OF THE HOUSE PROVISIONS

SECTION 801. SENSE OF THE HOUSE ON THE IMPORTANCE OF CHILD SUPPORT 
                    ENFORCEMENT

    This section expresses the sense of the House that 
additional legislative action is needed to ensure that States 
have the necessary resources to collect all child support that 
is owed to families and to allow them to pass 100 percent of 
support on to families without financial penalty.
    It also expresses the sense that when 100 percent of child 
support payments are passed to the child, rather than spent on 
administrative expenses, program integrity is improved and 
child support participation increases.
                             S. CON. RES. 8

                                ------

Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate may 
adjust the allocation called for in section 302(a) of the

SEC. 404. SENATE POINT OF ORDER AGAINST PROVISIONS OF APPROPRIATIONS 
                    LEGISLATION THAT CONSTITUTE CHANGES IN MANDATORY 
                    PROGRAMS AFFECTING THE CRIME VICTIMS FUND.

    (a) In General.--In the Senate, it shall not be in order to 
consider any appropriations legislation, including any 
amendment thereto, motion in relation thereto, or conference 
report thereon, that includes any provision or provisions 
affecting the Crime Victims Fund (as established by section 
1402 of Public Law 98-473 (42 U.S.C. 10601)) which constitutes 
a change in a mandatory program that would have been estimated 
as affecting direct spending or receipts under section 252 of 
the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 
(as in effect prior to September 30, 2002) were they included 
in legislation other than appropriations legislation. A point 
of order pursuant to this section shall be raised against such 
provision or provisions as described in subsections (d) and 
(e).
    (b) Determination.--The determination of whether a 
provision is subject to a point of order pursuant to this 
section shall be made by the Committee on the Budget of the 
Senate.
    (c) Supermajority Waiver and Appeal.--This section may be 
waived or suspended in the Senate only by an affirmative vote 
of three-fifths of the Members, duly chosen and sworn. An 
affirmative vote of three-fifths of the Members of the Senate, 
duly chosen and sworn, shall be required to sustain an appeal 
of the ruling of the Chair on a point of order raised under 
this section.
    (d) General Point of Order.--It shall be in order for a 
Senator to raise a single point of order that several 
provisions of a bill, resolution, amendment, motion, or 
conference report violate this section. The Presiding Officer 
may sustain the point of order as to some or all of the 
provisions against which the Senator raised the point of order. 
If the Presiding Officer so sustains the point of order as to 
some of the provisions (including provisions of an amendment, 
motion, or conference report) against which the Senator raised 
the point of order, then only those provisions (including 
provision of an amendment, motion, or conference report) 
against which the Presiding Officer sustains the point of order 
shall be deemed stricken pursuant to this section. Before the 
Presiding Officer rules on such a point of order, any Senator 
may move to waive such a point of order as it applies to some 
or all of the provisions against which the point of order was 
raised. Such a motion to waive is amendable in accordance with 
rules and precedents of the Senate. After the Presiding Officer 
rules on such a point of order, any Senator may appeal the 
ruling of the Presiding Officer on such a point of order as it 
applies to some or all of the provisions on which the Presiding 
Officer ruled.
    (e) Form of the Point of Order.--When the Senate is 
considering a conference report on, or an amendment between the 
Houses in relation to, a bill, upon a point of order being made 
by any Senator pursuant to this section, and such point of 
order being sustained, such material contained in such 
conference report or amendment shall be deemed stricken, and 
the Senate shall proceed to consider the question of whether 
the Senate shall recede from its amendment and concur with a 
further amendment, or concur in the House amendment with a 
further amendment, as the case may be, which further amendment 
shall consist of only that portion of the conference report or 
House amendment, as the case may be, not so stricken. Any such 
motion shall be debatable. In any case in which such point of 
order is sustained against a conference report (or Senate 
amendment derived from such conference report by operation of 
this subsection), no further amendment shall be in order.

SEC. 405. SUPERMAJORITY ENFORCEMENT.

    Section 425(a)(1) and (2) of the Congressional Budget Act 
of 1974 shall be subject to the waiver and appeal requirements 
of subsections (c)(2) and (d)(3) of section 904 of the 
Congressional Budget Act of 1974.

SEC. 406. PROHIBITING THE USE OF GUARANTEE FEES AS AN OFFSET.

    (a) Purpose.--The purpose of this section is to ensure that 
increases in guarantee fees charged by Fannie Mae and Freddie 
Mac shall not be used to offset provisions that increase the 
deficit.
    (b) Budgetary Rule.--In the Senate, for purposes of 
determining budgetary impacts to evaluate points of order under 
this resolution and the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, this 
resolution, any previous resolution, and any subsequent budget 
resolution, provisions contained in any bill, resolution, 
amendment, motion, or conference report that increases any 
guarantee fees of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac shall not be 
scored with respect to the level of budget authority, outlays, 
or revenues contained in such legislation.

use of performance data to inform committee work. Committees 
are also directed to review the matters for congressional 
consideration identified on the Government Accountability 
Office's High Risk list and the annual report to reduce program 
duplication. Based on these oversight efforts and performance 
reviews of programs within their jurisdiction, committees are

Appropriations amounts for the discretionary administrative 
expenses of the Social Security Administration and of the 
Postal Service.

                    AGGREGATES.

            (1) apply while that measure is under 
        consideration;
            (2) take effect upon the enactment of that measure; 
        and
            (3) be published in the Congressional Record as 
        soon as practicable.
    (b) Effect of Changed Allocations and Aggregates.--Revised 
allocations and aggregates resulting from these adjustments 
shall be considered for the purposes of the Congressional 
Budget Act of 1974 as allocations and aggregates contained in 
this resolution.
    (c) Budget Committee Determinations.--For purposes of this 
resolution the levels of new budget authority, outlays, direct 
spending, new entitlement authority, revenues, deficits, and 
surpluses for a fiscal year or period of fiscal years shall be 
determined on the basis of estimates made by the Committee on 
the Budget of the Senate.

SEC. 414. ADJUSTMENTS TO REFLECT CHANGES IN CONCEPTS AND DEFINITIONS.

    Upon the enactment of a bill or joint resolution providing 
for a change in concepts or definitions, the Chairman of the 
Committee on the Budget of the Senate may make adjustments to 
the levels and allocations in this resolution in accordance 
with section 251(b) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency 
Deficit Control Act of 1985.

SEC. 415. EXERCISE OF RULEMAKING POWERS.

    Congress adopts the provisions of this title--
            (1) as an exercise of the rulemaking power of the 
        Senate, and as such they shall be considered as part of 
        the rules of the Senate and such rules shall supersede 
        other rules only to the extent that they are 
        inconsistent with such other rules; and
            (2) with full recognition of the constitutional 
        right of the Senate to change those rules at any time, 
        in the same manner, and to the same extent as is the 
        case of any other rule of the Senate.

SEC. 416. CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE ESTIMATES.

    (a) Request for Supplemental Estimates.--In the case of any 
legislative provision to which this section applies, the 
Congressional Budget Office, with the assistance of the Joint 
Committee on Taxation, shall prepare, to the extent 
practicable, as a supplement to the cost estimate for 
legislation affecting revenues, an estimate of the revenue 
changes in connection with such provision that incorporates the 
macroeconomic effects of the policy being analyzed. Any 
macroeconomic impact statement under the preceding sentence 
shall be accompanied by a written statement fully disclosing 
the economic, technical, and behavioral assumptions that were 
made in producing--
            (1) such estimate; and
            (2) the conventional estimate in connection with 
        such provision.
    (b) Legislative Provisions to Which This Section Applies.--
This section shall apply to any legislative provision--
            (1) which proposes a change or changes to law that 
        the Congressional Budget Office determines, pursuant to 
        a conventional fiscal estimate, has a revenue impact in 
        excess of $5,000,000,000 in any fiscal year; or
            (2) with respect to which the chair or ranking 
        member of the Committee on the Budget of either the

Update to the Budget and Economic Outlook, the Congressional 
Budget Office shall report changes in direct spending and 
revenue associated with the Patient Protection and Affordable

Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 and the Patient Protection 
and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), as passed by the Senate.

SEC. 502. TO REQUIRE FULLER REPORTING ON POSSIBLE COSTS TO TAXPAYERS OF 
                    OBAMACARE.

    When the Congressional Budget Office releases its annual 
update to the Budget and Economic Outlook, the Congressional 
Budget Office shall provide an analysis of the budgetary 
effects of 30 percent, 50 percent, and 100 percent of Americans 
losing employer sponsored health insurance and accessing

Congress relating to a budget submitted by the President for a 
fiscal year under section 1105 of title 31, United States Code, 
such report shall contain--
            (1) an estimate of the pro rata cost for taxpayers 
        who will file individual income tax returns for taxable 
        years ending during such fiscal year of any deficit 
        that would result from the budget; and
            (2) an analysis of the budgetary effects described

SEC. 504. SENSE OF SENATE ON UNDERUTILIZED FACILITIES OF THE NATIONAL 
                    AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION AND THEIR 
                    POTENTIAL USE.

    (a) Findings.--The Senate finds the following:
            (1) The National Aeronautics and Space 
        Administration (NASA) is the ninth largest real 
        property holder of the Federal Government, with more 
        than 124,000 acres and more than 4,900 buildings and 
        other structures with a replacement value of more than 
        $30,000,000,000.
            (2) The annual operation and maintenance costs of 
        the National Aeronautics and Space Administration have 
        increased steadily, and, as of 2012, the Administration 
        has more than $2,300,000,000 in annual deferred 
        maintenance costs.
            (3) According to Office of Inspector General (OIG) 
        of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, 
        the Administration continues to retain real property 
        that is underutilized, does not have identified future 
        mission uses, or is duplicative of other assets in its 
        real property inventory.
            (4) The Office of Inspector General, the Government 
        Accountability Office (GAO), and Congress have 
        identified the aging and duplicative infrastructure of 
        the National Aeronautics and Space Administration as a 
        high priority and longstanding management challenge.
            (5) In the NASA Authorization Act of 2010, Congress 
        directed the National Aeronautics and Space 
        Administration to examine its real property assets and 
        downsize to fit current and future missions and 
        expected funding levels, paying particular attention to 
        identifying and removing unneeded or duplicative 
        infrastructure.
            (6) The Office of Inspector General found at least 
        33 facilities, including wind tunnels, test stands, 
        airfields, and launch infrastructure, that were 
        underutilized or for which National Aeronautics and 
        Space Administration managers could not identify a 
        future mission use and that the need for these 
        facilities have declined in recent years as a result of 
        changes in the mission focus of the Administration, the 
        condition and obsolescence of some facilities, and the 
        advent of alternative testing methods.
            (7) The Office of Inspector General found that the 
        National Aeronautics and Space Administration has taken 
        steps to minimize the costs of continuing to maintain 
        some of these facilities by placing them in an inactive 
        state or leasing them to other parties.
            (8) The National Aeronautics and Space 
        Administration has a series of initiatives underway 
        that, in the judgment of the Office of Inspector 
        General, are ``positive steps towards `rightsizing' its 
        real property footprint'', and the Office of Inspector 
        General has concluded that ``it is imperative that NASA 
        move forward aggressively with its infrastructure 
        reduction efforts''.
            (9) Existing and emerging United States commercial 
        launch and exploration capabilities are providing cargo 
        transportation to the International Space Station and 
        offer the potential for providing crew support, access 
        to the International Space Station, and missions to low 
        Earth orbit while the National Aeronautics and Space 
        Administration focuses its efforts on heavy-lift 
        capabilities and deep space missions.
            (10) National Aeronautics and Space Administration 
        facilities and property that are underutilized, 
        duplicative, or no longer needed for Administration 
        requirements could be utilized by commercial users and 
        State and local entities, resulting in savings for the 
        Administration and a reduction in the burden of the 
        Federal Government to fund space operations.
    (b) Sense of Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate that 
the levels in this concurrent resolution assume--
            (1) the National Aeronautics and Space 
        Administration should move forward with plans to reduce 
        its infrastructure and, to the greatest extent 
        practicable, make property available for lease to a 
        government or private tenant or report the property to 
        the General Services Administration (GSA) for sale or 
        transfer to another entity;
            (2) the National Aeronautics and Space 
        Administration should pursue opportunities for 
        streamlined sale or lease of property and facilities, 
        including for exclusive use, to a private entity, or 
        expedited conveyance or transfer to a State or 
        political subdivision, municipality, instrumentality of 
        a State, or Department of Transportation-licensed 
        launch site operators for the promotion of commercial 
        or scientific space activity and for developing and 
        operating space launch facilities; and
            (3) leasing or transferring underutilized 
        facilities and properties to commercial space entities 
        or State or local governments will reduce operation and 
        maintenance costs for the National Aeronautics and 
        Space Administration, save money for the Federal 
        Government, and promote commercial space and the 
        exploration goals of the Administration and the United 
        States.
Passed the Senate March 23 (legislative day, March 22), 2013.

SEC. 401. DISCRETIONARY SPENDING LIMITS, PROGRAM INTEGRITY INITIATIVES, 
                    AND OTHER ADJUSTMENTS.

    The Committee-reported resolution strengthens fiscal 
responsibility by establishing discretionary spending limits 
for 2013 and 2014, and enforcing them with a point of order in 
the Senate that can be waived only with 60 votes. The 
discretionary caps contain a ``firewall'' between security and 
nonsecurity spending for fiscal year 2013. The security 
category includes discretionary appropriations associated with 
agency budgets for the Department of Defense, the Department of 
Homeland Security, the Department of Veterans Affairs, the 
National Nuclear Security Administration, the intelligence 
community management account, and all budget accounts in 
function 150 (international affairs). The nonsecurity category 
includes all other discretionary appropriations.
    The discretionary caps also contain a firewall between a 
revised security category and a revised nonsecurity category 
for fiscal year 2014. The revised security category includes 
discretionary appropriations in budget function 050 (defense). 
The revised nonsecurity category includes all other 
discretionary appropriations. The point of order can be raised 
against legislation breaching the caps in either category.
    The Committee-reported resolution permits adjustments to 
the discretionary spending limits, allocations, and aggregates 
for certain legislation making appropriations for emergency 
requirements, disability reviews and redeterminations, health 
care fraud and abuse control, disaster relief, and overseas 
contingency operations. These adjustments are consistent with 
those included in the BCA. The adjustments for overseas 
contingency operations are limited in the resolution to certain 
dollar amounts for each of fiscal years 2013 and 2014.

SEC. 402. ADVANCE APPROPRIATIONS.

    The Committee-reported resolution provides a supermajority 
point of order in the Senate against appropriations in 2014 
bills that would first become effective in any year after 2014, 
and against appropriations in 2015 bills that would first 
become effective in any year after 2015. It does not apply 
against appropriations for veterans' medical services, support, 
or facilities, or the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. 
Additionally, there is an exemption for each of2015 and 2016 of 
up to $28.852 billion for the following:

      ACCOUNTS IDENTIFIED FOR ADVANCE APPROPRIATIONS IN THE SENATE

Labor, HHS:

    Employment and Training Administration
    Job Corps
    Education for the Disadvantaged
    School Improvement
    Special Education
    Career, Technical, and Adult Education

Financial Services and General Government:

    Payment to Postal Service

Transportation, Housing and Urban Development:

    Tenant-based Rental Assistance
    Project-based Rental Assistance

SEC. 403. ADJUSTMENTS FOR SEQUESTRATION OR SEQUESTRATION REPLACEMENT.

    Because the discretionary spending limits described above 
as well as aggregates and committee allocations must comply 
with the Budget Control Act of 2011 (BCA) until the 
sequestration process is replaced, the Committee-reported 
resolution permits adjustments to the allocations, aggregates, 
levels and limits in the resolution if the enforcement 
procedures, including sequestration, established by the BCA and 
modified by the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 remain or 
go into effect. This section also allows for adjustments if a 
law is enacted that amends those enforcement procedures or the 
BCA discretionary spending limits contained in the Balanced 
Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985. It also 
allows for adjustments for program integrity initiatives to 
fund anti-fraud activities or for legislation to fund 
investments that will lay the foundation for job growth and 
long-term economic development.

SEC. 404. SENATE POINT OF ORDER AGAINST PROVISIONS OF APPROPRIATIONS 
                    LEGISLATION THAT CONSTITUTE CHANGES IN MANDATORY 
                    PROGRAMS AFFECTING THE CRIME VICTIMS FUND.

    The Committee-reported resolution includes a new 6O-vote 
point of order that applies to appropriations legislation 
containing one or more provisions that constitute a change in a 
mandatory program that affects the Crime Victims Fund, as 
defined by section 10601 of title 42, United States Code.

                             OTHER MATTERS

SEC. 501. TO REQUIRE TRANSPARENT REPORTING ON THE ONGOING COSTS TO 
                    TAXPAYERS OF OBAMACARE.

    The Committee-reported resolution directs the Congressional 
Budget Office, upon the release of its annual Update to the

Affordable Care Act (Public Law 111-148) and the Health Care 
and Education Reconciliation Act of2010 (Public Law 111-152), 
including the net impact on deficit, both with on-budget and 
off-budget effects.

SEC. 502. TO REQUIRE FULLER REPORTING ON POSSIBLE COSTS TO TAXPAYERS OF 
                    OBAMACARE.

    The Committee-reported resolution directs the Congressional 
Budget Office, upon the release of its annual update to the 
Budget and Economic Outlook, to provide an analysis of the 
budgetary effects of 30 percent, 50 percent, and 100 percent of 
Americans losing employer sponsored health insurance and 
accessing coverage through Federal or state exchanges.

       Colloquy Related to Not-for-Profit Student Loan Servicing


       CONGRESSIONAL RECORD--HOUSE, DECEMBER 12, 2013, PAGE H8075

    (The Speaker Pro Tempore recognized Chairman Paul Ryan (WI) 
for two minutes for the purpose of this colloquy)

    Mr. Ryan of Wisconsin. Mr. Speaker, at this time, I yield 2 
minutes to the gentleman from Iowa (Mr. Latham) for the 
purposes of a colloquy.
    Mr. Latham. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from 
Vermont (Mr. Welch).
    Mr. Welch. Mr. Speaker, I rise to enter into a colloquy 
with the gentleman from Wisconsin regarding the not-for-profit 
student loan servicing provisions in the Bipartisan Budget Act 
of 2013.
    Is it your understanding and intent that the not-for-profit 
servicing provision in this act does not require the 
termination of the existing Federal loan servicing contracts of 
any not-for-profit servicers who are currently servicing 
Federal loans?
    And is it the further understanding and intent of the 
gentleman from Wisconsin that the Education Department will 
continue to enter into contracts with not-for-profit servicers 
based on their performance?
    Mr. Ryan of Wisconsin. Mr. Speaker, will the gentleman from 
Iowa yield?
    Mr. Latham. I yield to the gentleman.
    Mr. Ryan of Wisconsin. Mr. Speaker, yes, it is the 
legislative intent that existing contracts to use the services 
for not-for-profit servicers are not terminated by this bill 
and that they will be permitted to compete with the Department 
of Education's title IV servicers for additional accounts.
    Mr. Latham. Mr. Speaker, I associate myself with the 
comments of the managers and am pleased to know it is their 
intent that the use of not-for-profit servicers continues and 
that not-for-profit servicers will be permitted to compete in 
the future for additional accounts.
    Mr. Kline. Mr. Speaker, will the gentleman yield?
    Mr. Latham. I yield to the gentleman from Minnesota.
    Mr. Kline. Mr. Speaker, I also rise to associate myself 
with the comments of the managers and am pleased to know it is 
their intent that the use of not-for-profit servicers continues 
and that not-for-profit servicers will be permitted to compete 
in the future for additional accounts.

               Colloquy Related to the Death Master File


            CONGRESSIONAL RECORD--SENATE, DECEMBER 17, 2013,
                            PAGE S8890-S8891

    (The Presiding Officer recognized Senator Murray (WA) to 
engage in this colloquy)

    Mr. Nelson.

           *       *       *       *       *       *       *

    I would like to take a moment to acknowledge a small but 
significant provision in this budget compromise. It is section 
203 of the Budget Act of 2013, and it limits access to what is 
known as Social Security's Death Master File, which is 
important because criminals utilize fraudulently the Death 
Master File to steal people's identities.
    When someone dies, the Social Security Administration puts 
their information into the Death Master File and releases it to 
the public through the Commerce Department. It lists their 
name, their Social Security number, and other personal 
identification information.
    The public release shortly after death of the Death Master 
File came about as a result of a Freedom of Information Act 
lawsuit back in the 1980s. Over time, Federal agencies and 
industries came to rely on the information from the Death 
Master File. Life insurers use it to know when to pay out 
benefits. Banks and credit card companies use information from 
the file to prevent fraud. A whole host of Federal and State 
agencies, as well as other industries, depend on the 
information for legitimate purposes, including pension funds, 
unclaimed property auditors, and identity theft protection 
companies.
    But there is somebody else who is using the Death Master 
File too. It is the criminals who are stealing identities, 
including especially the Social Security number. When that is 
posted online, they are using it fraudulently. What are they 
doing? They are filing an income tax return. They are utilizing 
somebody else's identity--in this case easily accessible, the 
Death Master File--creating a false return and getting a tax 
refund.
    You may find this hard to believe, but this actually 
happened in Tampa, FL. Street crime--hijackings, stickups, 
burglaries, dope dealing--actually dropped because the 
criminals found a new way of being able to steal people's 
money. They did it with a laptop instead of with a crowbar or a 
gun. Street crime actually reduced because the criminals have 
found a new way.
    They would steal people's identities in many different 
ways. They would go to senior citizens' mailboxes, and they 
would get their ID, they would get their Social Security 
number. They would go through hospital records, and they would 
get Social Security numbers. They would do it a number of ways. 
But one of the easiest ways was this Death Master File.
    I want to tell you about the story of Alexis Agin, the 
daughter of two courageous parents John and Neely, who have 
joined us today. Tragically, Alexis died from cancer 2 weeks 
shy of her 5th birthday. Obviously, no parent should have to go 
through the pain of seeing their child go through this kind of 
ordeal and then losing the child.
    So you can imagine how they felt when months later they 
learned that someone had used Alexis' identity, obtained from 
the Death Master File, to file a fraudulent tax return, 
claiming a refund, and the IRS--when they tried to correct 
this--asked them to prove that Alexis was their daughter and 
was not the one responsible for the fraudulent tax return.
    Because I have heard so many stories of innocent Americans 
whose identities have been stolen, this Senator filed this 
legislation that would restrict access to the Death Master File 
by establishing a certification program run by the Commerce 
Department while still allowing access to the Death Master File 
for legitimate purposes.
    This brings us to the budget agreement. I am very pleased 
that the Senator from Washington has included within this 
budget that we are going to pass--it would be nice if it were 
today, but it looks as if it is going to be tomorrow--what some 
of us have been calling on for years: restricting access to 
this master file, making it harder for criminals to steal 
identities and therefore making it harder to steal taxpayer 
money.
    That is where this actually has a revenue effect because we 
are going to actually save the U.S. Government money by doing 
this. We are going to save the U.S. Government money that 
otherwise would be stolen. So I thank the courageous chairman 
of the Budget Committee for including this idea in the act and 
for crafting what used to be S. 676, the Identity Theft and Tax 
Fraud Prevention Act.
    It was never the intent of this Senator or the cosponsors 
to deny access to the master file by the people who need it for 
legitimate purposes. The language in this budget deal would 
include the file in the Freedom of Information Act exemptions 
so that it will not be available to just anyone off the street. 
However, the Social Security Administration and Commerce would 
still be able to release the information in the file for those 
who need it.
    So I want to ask the distinguished chair of the committee 
whether is it true that as Commerce sets up a certification 
program, the Social Security Administration and Commerce will 
still be able to release the Death Master File to folks who 
need to use it for legitimate purposes?
    The Presiding Officer. The Senator from Washington.
    Mrs. Murray. Mr. President, I would ask unanimous consent 
to engage in a colloquy with the Senator from Florida and the 
Senator from Pennsylvania so I may respond.
    The Presiding Officer. Without objection, it is so ordered.
    Mrs. Murray. The Senator from Florida is correct. That is 
absolutely our intention. There is nothing in law that prevents 
the continued public release of the Death Master File while the 
Commerce Department sets up the certification program. This act 
simply exempts the Social Security Administration's death 
records from freedom of information requests under section 552 
of title 5 of the United States Code, subsection (b).
    Mr. Casey. Mr. President, echoing the comments of my 
colleague from Florida, I am pleased that the budget includes 
language to address the fraud that is perpetrated with 
information from the Death Master File. Tax fraud is a large 
and growing problem. We know that. In 2012, for example, the 
IRS reported that they identified over 1.2 million identity 
theft returns. As of June 2013, they identified 1.6 million for 
this year. Thousands of these cases involve the identities of 
deceased taxpayers. A recent audit of the 2011 tax year 
identified 19,000 fraudulent returns from recently deceased 
taxpayers. Under current practice, for $10, criminals can 
purchase the full name, Social Security number, date of birth, 
and date of death of a deceased citizen or legal resident.
    As a member of the Finance Committee, I have worked with my 
colleagues to address this issue. I am pleased to see the 
language limiting access to the Death Master File in the budget 
deal.
    As Commerce begins its rulemaking, it is essential to 
strike the correct balance. The reality is that the Death 
Master File is used by companies across Pennsylvania and the 
Nation to prevent fraud and provide other essential consumer 
protections. Banks, investment companies, insurers, and 
numerous other businesses run this file to ensure the identity 
of those accessing their services. Striking the correct balance 
in the regulatory process is critical to ensuring the continued 
legitimate use of this information.
    Businesses and those who contract for assistance with fraud 
prevention and other businesses must maintain access to the 
file. Furthermore, access must remain available as those 
regulations are promulgated.
    In short, as a certification program is set up, it is 
important that we get it right. The Death Master File is 
critical to fraud prevention and must remain available to 
legitimate users. To that point, I ask the Senator from 
Washington, the distinguished chairwoman, is it the intention 
of the Bipartisan Budget Act for the Commerce Department to 
seek input from stakeholders as it creates the certification 
program to ensure legitimate users maintain access to the file?
    Mrs. Murray. Mr. President, the Senator from Pennsylvania 
is correct. We intended for Commerce to follow notice-and-
comment rulemaking procedures in the establishment of the 
certification program.
    Mr. Nelson. Mr. President, I want to close by again 
thanking the distinguished chairwoman of the committee. She has 
been a quiet hero, and the proof is in the pudding of all of 
her labors. She deserves the praise of the country that we have 
a budget, No. 1, but I also thank her for making it a lot more 
difficult for criminals to steal the identities of those who 
have passed on.

              Colloquy Related to Transboundary Agreements


      CONGRESSIONAL RECORD--SENATE, DECEMBER 17, 2013, PAGE S8898

    Mr. Menendez. Mr. President, I want to briefly discuss 
Section 304 of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013, which 
contained an amendment to the Outer Continental Shelf Lands 
Act. I was disappointed to see that the amended Section 32 
requires submissions regarding future transboundary hydrocarbon 
agreements be made to the Speaker of the House, the Senate 
Majority Leader, the chair of the Committee on Natural 
Resources of the House of Representatives, and the chair of the 
Committee on Energy and Natural Resources in the Senate. This 
language fails to mention the Senate Foreign Relations 
Committee, an omission I find curious in light of the Foreign 
Relations Committee's jurisdiction over international 
agreements. I would like to yield to my colleague from 
Washington in order to clarify that this language was not 
intended to negate the Foreign Relations Committee's 
jurisdiction of transboundary hydrocarbon agreements.
    Mrs. Murray. I thank the Senator for his question, and I 
appreciate his leadership as Chairman of the Senate Foreign 
Relations Committee. I understand his concerns and can assure 
him that the language in the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013 was 
not intended to alter or negate the Foreign Relation 
Committee's jurisdiction.
    Mr. Menendez. I thank the Senator from Washington for her 
response, and I appreciate the tremendous work she has done to 
arrive at a budget agreement. Due to the importance of this 
issue, I want to seek additional confirmation of this point. 
The February 20, 2012 Agreement between the United States of 
America and the United Mexican States Concerning Transboundary 
Hydrocarbon Reservoirs in the Gulf of Mexico went through the 
Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources with the 
approval of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee because the 
implementing legislation was narrow and addressed the ability 
of the Department of the Interior to carry out the agreement. 
However, the Foreign Relations Committee engaged in robust 
oversight of this agreement in meetings with high-ranking 
officials at the Department of State and the Department of the 
Interior, including the submission of a detailed letter with 
several questions, which received a lengthy response. These 
actions reflect the Senate Foreign Relations Committee's 
intention to retain oversight of transboundary hydrocarbon 
agreements, and to reserve the right to draft and oversee 
implementing legislation for future transboundary hydrocarbon 
agreements.
    Mrs. Murray. I thank the chairman of the Senate Foreign 
Relations Committee. It is quite clear by the extensive work 
the committee has done on the U.S.-Mexico Transboundary 
Hydrocarbon Agreement that the committee has an expertise in 
international agreements and should play an integral role in 
the oversight of future transboundary hydrocarbon agreements. 
The language in the Bipartisan Budget Act was not intended to 
undermine the Senate Foreign Relations Committee's jurisdiction 
with respect to any matter that would be properly before it.
    Mr. Menendez. I thank the chair of the Budget Committee for 
her responses.

           Colloquy Related to Not-for-Profit Loan Servicing


            CONGRESSIONAL RECORD--SENATE, DECEMBER 17, 2013,
                            PAGE S8898-S8899

    Mr. Sanders. Mr. President, I rise to enter into a colloquy 
with the chairman of the Budget Committee, Senator Murray, and 
several of my colleagues regarding the not-for-profit student 
loan servicing provisions in the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013. 
Is it your understanding and intent that the not-for-profit 
servicing provision in this act does not require the 
termination of the existing Federal loan servicing contracts of 
any not-for-profit servicers who are currently servicing 
Federal loans?
    Is it further the understanding and intent of the chairman 
of the Senate Budget Committee that the Education Department 
will continue to enter into contracts with not-for-profit 
servicers based on their performance?
    Mrs. Murray. Mr. President, the Senator from Vermont is 
correct. It is my intent that existing contracts to use the 
services of not-for-profit servicers are not terminated by this 
bill and that they will be permitted to compete with the 
Department of Education's title IV servicers for additional 
accounts. I know several of my colleagues also feel strongly 
about this issue. I would like to recognize the following 
Senators to also join in on the colloquy: Senators Leahy, 
Harkin, Alexander, Hatch, Shaheen, Begich, Grassley, King, 
Baucus, Tester, and Murkowski.
    Mr. Leahy. Mr. President, if I may join in this colloquy, I 
am glad for the clarification from the senior Senator from 
Washington and am pleased to know it is her legislative intent 
for the Department of Education to continue to use not-for-
profit servicers and maintain their existing contracts and that 
not-for-profit servicers will be permitted to compete in the 
future for additional accounts. Like other notfor-profits 
around the country, the Vermont Student Assistance Corporation, 
VSAC, has provided counseling services and low-cost loans to 
students and Vermonters for more than 40 years. Since then, 
VSAC has worked hard to establish and maintain strong and 
longstanding working relationships with Vermont's higher 
education institutions, as well as K-12 schools, to provide 
outreach programs critical to the economic vitality of Vermont. 
In their new role servicing Federal loans, VSAC has 
consistently received praise from their customers and scored 
high in customer satisfaction surveys. In fact, when Congress 
switched to direct lending we ensured that not-for-profit 
servicers would continue to service Federal loans because of 
the superior customer service experience that not-for-profits 
servicers have consistently provided. I am glad that Congress 
is continuing to recognize the importance of not-for-profit 
servicers in our communities and intends to allow for their 
continued role of servicing Federal loans and helping more 
students gain access to college and more students to complete 
their degrees.
    Mr. Harkin. Mr. President, as chairman of the Health, 
Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, which holds 
jurisdiction over the servicing of our Federal student loan 
programs, it is my understanding that the intent of the budget 
agreement is to allow for the continuation of the existing 
notfor-profit servicer contracts and that they will be 
permitted to compete based on performance with the Department 
of Education's title IV servicers for additional accounts, so 
that students receive the best possible service and taxpayer 
funds are used efficiently.
    Mr. Alexander. Mr. President, I thank the Senator from 
Vermont for engaging in this dialogue and appreciate the 
Senator from Washington clarifying that it is the intent of the 
budget measure for the Department of Education to continue to 
use not-for-profit servicers for the Federal loan program and 
that these entities should be permitted to compete for 
additional loan volume in the future.
    Mr. Hatch. Mr. President, I thank the Senator from Vermont 
and the Senator from Washington for providing clarification on 
this issue. I am happy to hear that the legislative intent of 
the budget deal is to continue the use of the not-for-profit 
student loan servicers and that they will be permitted to 
compete in the future for additional accounts.
    Mrs. Shaheen. Mr. President, I would like to associate 
myself with the comments of the senior Senator from Washington 
and am pleased to know it is her intent that not-for-profit 
servicers, like the New Hampshire Higher Education Loan 
Corporation and the NHHEAF Network, will be able to continue 
their important work and that they will be able to compete in 
the future for additional accounts. For over 50 years, the New 
Hampshire Higher Education Loan Corporation and the NHHEAF 
Network have provided critical college access, financial 
education, and default-prevention programs to students in New 
Hampshire and across the country. The New Hampshire Higher 
Education Loan Corporation's dedicated staff services a 
national portfolio over 250,000 borrowers, helping them to 
manage repayment of almost $5 billion in student loans. These 
professionals play a uniquely important role in helping 
students to succeed in postsecondary education, and I am 
pleased that it is the Senator from Washington's intent to 
allow them to continue their work.
    Mr. Begich. Mr. President, I rise as well to thank the 
senior Senator from Washington for her insight and to echo the 
comments from my colleagues, especially my good friend from 
Alaska.
    The not-for-profit student loan servicer in my State, the 
Alaska Student Loan Corporation, does an outstanding job of 
servicing student loans. They take a proactive and supportive 
role with the accounts they receive from the Department, and I 
want to ensure they will be able to continue to participate in 
this important program. I was pleased to learn that the 
chairman's intent in including this language was not to exclude 
not-for-profit servicers from competing for additional 
servicing accounts.
    Mr. Grassley. Mr. President, I would like to associate 
myself with the comments of the senior Senator from Washington 
and am pleased to know it is her intent that the use of not-
for-profit servicers continues and that not-for-profit 
servicers will be permitted to compete on an equal basis in the 
future for additional accounts.
    Mr. King. Mr. President, I wish to associate myself with 
the comments of the senior Senator from Washington. I am 
pleased to know that it is her intent that the work of not-for-
profit servicers advances and that they will continue to be 
allowed to compete for additional accounts in the future. In 
Maine, two not-for-profit servicers, the Finance Authority of 
Maine and Maine Education Services, provide essential services 
to Maine students through financial literacy education and the 
servicing of Federal student loans. Indeed, not-for-profit 
servicers do meaningful work across the country, and I am glad 
to know it is the Senate Budget Committee Chairman's intent to 
continue to allow these State agencies and nonprofits to play a 
role in servicing federal student loans.
    Mr. Baucus. Mr. President, I would also like to associate 
myself with the senior Senator from Washington, my colleague 
from Vermont, and my colleague from Montana. Our Montana 
servicer, the Student Assistance Foundation, provides vital 
services to Montana students by delivering financial aid 
education, scholarships, and grants. I am therefore pleased to 
know it is the intent of the chairman of the Senate Budget 
Committee that not-for-profit student loan servicers will 
continue to play a role in the servicing market and will be 
permitted to compete for future servicing contracts.
    Mr. Tester. Mr. President, I rise to share in this 
important discussion and would also like to associate myself 
with the comments of the senior Senator from Washington and my 
colleague from Montana. The Student Assistance Foundation is a 
strong employer in Montana, representing nearly 200 jobs, and I 
am pleased to know it is the chair of the Budget Committee's 
intent that the use of not-for-profit servicers continues. I am 
also pleased that not-for-profit servicers, such as the Student 
Assistance Foundation, will be permitted to compete in the 
future for additional accounts.
    Ms. Murkowski. Mr. President, I am pleased to know it is 
the intent of the chairman of the Senate Budget Committee--the 
chief Senate negotiator for the Bipartisan Budget Act--that 
nonprofit servicers will continue to play an important role in 
servicing Federal student loans, both now and in the future. I 
strongly support this intent and the vital public service role 
that nonprofit and State agency servicers have played in 
Federal student loan programs on behalf of Federal student loan 
borrowers and the American public. I will be one of those who 
will expect the Department to pay close attention to 
congressional intent in this matter. I also look forward to 
working with my colleagues on both the Senate Health, 
Education, Labor and Pensions Committee and the Appropriations 
Committee to ensure that this intent is carried out.
    Ms. Collins. Mr. President, I would like to thank the 
chairman of the Senate Budget Committee, who coauthored this 
legislation, for clarifying that it is not the intent of the 
bill's authors to require that existing contracts with not-for-
profit student loan servicers be canceled and that such 
servicers will continue to be able to compete for additional 
Department of Education contracts in the future. Not-for-profit 
servicers provide students in Maine and across the country with 
important financial counseling services, and I am pleased to 
know that they will continue to be allowed to compete to 
perform this work under this legislation.

            Colloquy Related to Reserve Funds/Section 114(c)
                           of the BBA of 2013


        CONGRESSIONAL RECORD--SENATE, JANUARY 7, 2014, PAGE S67

    Mrs. Murray. Madam President, I rise to enter into a 
colloquy with the Senator from Ohio, Mr. Portman, to discuss 
section 114(c) of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013, which 
establishes a deficit-neutral reserve fund to replace 
sequestration.
    Before I turn to Senator Portman for his questions, I would 
like to note that the Senate has relied on reserve funds for 
nearly 30 years to help it carry out its priorities as part of 
the annual budget process. In fact, during debate on the 2014 
budget resolution, the Senate considered or filed over 300 
reserve funds. These included multiple amendments from Members 
of both parties to create new reserve funds. This particular 
reserve fund, section 114(c), was included and voted on as part 
of both the Senate Budget Committee-reported resolution and the 
Senate-passed budget resolution.
    I would now like to turn to my colleague for his questions.
    Mr. Portman. I would like to thank the chairman of the 
Budget Committee for the opportunity to engage in this colloquy 
with her. As I understand it, the intent of the reserve fund 
under section 114(c) is to be available to adjust certain 
budgetary levels for deficit-neutral legislation that would 
replace sequestration. Do I have that correct?
    Mrs. Murray. Yes, the bipartisan budget agreement reached 
between the House and Senate replaces some of the sequester 
cuts that otherwise would occur in 2014 and 2015. By avoiding 
sequestration and reaching agreement on bipartisan funding 
levels for 2014 and 2015, this agreement will provide relief to 
our families, servicemembers, and the economy. Sequestration, 
however, continues to remain in place, unmodified, for fiscal 
years 2016 through 2021. Assuming legislation met the necessary 
requirements specified in section 114(c), this reserve fund 
would be available to further address the harmful effects of 
sequestration.
    Mr. Portman. I thank the chairman for her response. There 
is a concern that the reserve fund in section 114(c) could 
deprive the minority of an opportunity to require 60 votes for 
legislation that would modify the statutory limits on 
discretionary spending and pay for some or all of that cost 
with new revenue. Is that concern accurate?
    Mrs. Murray. I thank the Senator for his question. No, that 
concern is not accurate. While a useful tool to help the Senate 
carry out its priorities under the budget process, a reserve 
fund is limited in what it allows me to do, in my capacity as 
chairman of the Budget Committee. In general, for legislation 
that meets the required criteria, reserve funds allow me to 
revise the levels adopted in a budget resolution and enforced 
in the Senate, such as committee allocations and the budgetary 
aggregates.
    A reserve fund, however, does not have any impact on the 
standing rules of the Senate, including the cloture process and 
the need for 60 votes to end debate. Nothing in the Bipartisan 
Budget Act would change that process.
    A reserve fund also does not waive budget points of order. 
I can use a reserve fund to revise the committee allocations 
and budgetary aggregates, such that legislation that meets the 
criteria of the reserve fund, including deficit neutrality, can 
be brought into compliance with the allocations and aggregates. 
But, it does not allow me to waive budget points of order that 
still may lie against the legislation following the reserve 
fund adjustment. Budget points of order generally can only be 
waived by unanimous consent or with 60 votes. Nothing in the 
Bipartisan Budget Act would change that.
    Further, the Senator from Ohio proposed the specific 
hypothetical example of legislation that would increase the 
statutory limits on discretionary spending and offset some or 
all of those costs with new revenue. Recognizing this is a 
hypothetical scenario, I believe in that situation the 
legislation would be subject to a 60-vote point of order for 
violating section 306 of the Congressional Budget Act, which 
creates a point of order against legislation dealing with 
matters within the jurisdiction of the Budget Committee that 
has not been reported out of the Budget Committee. Ultimately, 
the Parliamentarian of the Senate determines whether points of 
order under section 306 lie against legislation, but 
legislation to alter the statutory limits in discretionary 
spending has historically been within the jurisdiction of the 
Budget Committee. A reserve fund would have no impact on a 
section 306 point of order and nothing in the Bipartisan Budget 
Act would change that.
    In addition, legislation increasing the statutory caps on 
discretionary spending above the existing levels, as the 
Senator from Ohio outlines in his question, would also violate 
section 312(b) of the Congressional Budget Act, which prohibits 
consideration of legislation that would exceed any of the 
statutory limits on discretionary spending. The reserve fund in 
114(c), like other reserve funds, deals only with Senate 
enforcement and would have no impact on that point of order. 
Again, nothing in the Bipartisan Budget Act would change that.
    Finally, I would suggest to my colleague that legislation 
originating in the Senate rather than in the House of 
Representatives that raises revenue would likely be subject to 
a ``blue slip'' and returned back to the Senate by the House of 
Representatives. Again, nothing in the Bipartisan Budget Act 
would change that process.
    Mr. Portman. I thank the Chairman for her answer. I 
understand that we were discussing a hypothetical example. I 
thank her for engaging with me in this colloquy.

                                ------                                

    The following statements regarding provisions of the 
Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013 were submitted for the 
Congressional Record, (113th Congress).

            CONGRESSIONAL RECORD: HOUSE, DECEMBER 12, 2013,
                            PAGE: H8066-8067

 Statement for the Record by Hon. Paul D. Ryan, Chairman, Committee on 
            the Budget, on the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013

    Section 203 restricts access to the Death Master File, DMF, 
which is a list of deceased individuals maintained by the 
Social Security Administration.
    This provision charges the Secretary of Commerce with 
establishing a program to restrict access to the information 
contained on the DMF for a three-year period beginning on the 
date of an individual's death, except to persons who are 
certified under the program. Under the program, persons 
certified by the Secretary of Commerce to have a fraud 
prevention interest or other legitimate need for the 
information and agree to maintain the information under 
significant safeguards may continue to access DMF information 
on a current basis. The provision also provides for penalties 
in cases of unauthorized disclosures or uses of DMF information 
by certified persons. Finally, the provision also brings the 
DMF within the scope of the exemptions available under the 
Freedom of Information Act to ensure that Federal agencies do 
not disclose the information about deceased individuals 
maintained by SSA or contained in the DMF, except to recipients 
who are certified persons.
    In implementing this section, the Department of Commerce 
should promulgate regulations establishing and providing 
guidelines for the certification program and provide sufficient 
time for legitimate current users of DMF information to comment 
on the regulations, especially as it relates to the timing of 
the effectiveness of this Section and as it relates to the 
authority to release the Death Master File to the public.

      CONGRESSIONAL RECORD: HOUSE, DECEMBER 19, 2013, PAGE: E1906

    Mr. Ryan of Wisconsin. Mr. Speaker, Section 401 creates a 
new category of employee called a ``Further Revised Annuity 
Employee'' and would require Further Revised Annuity Employees 
to contribute additional amounts into the CRSDF.\5\ It is the 
intent of Congress for OPM to create a new normal cost for the 
Further Revised Annuity Employees, and to ensure that the 
retirement plan not be underfunded.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    \5\ A typographical error in the Congressional Record had this 
acronym misspelled--should be ``CSRDF'' (Civil Service Retirement and 
Disability Fund).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Additionally, it is the intent that for the new Further 
Revised Annuity Employee Plan that the only determinant of 
whether an individual is a FERS employee or Member, as opposed 
to a FERS Revised Annuity Employee or FERS Further Revised 
Annuity Employee, is through application of the FERS Revised 
Annuity Employee test. And that the new Further Revised Annuity 
Employee test only differentiates between FERS Revised Annuity 
Employee coverage and new FERS Further Revised Annuity Employee 
coverage.

      CONGRESSIONAL RECORD: SENATE, DECEMBER 17, 2013, PAGE: S8898

    Mrs. Murray. Mr. President, Section 401 of the Bipartisan 
Budget Act of 2013 creates a new category of employee called a 
further revised annuity employee and would require further 
revised annuity employees to contribute additional amounts into 
the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund. It is the 
intent of Congress for the Office of Personnel Management to 
create a new normal cost for the further revised annuity 
employees, and to ensure that the retirement plan not be 
underfunded.
    Additionally, it is the intent that for the new further 
revised annuity employee plan that the only determinant of 
whether an individual is a Federal Employee Retirement System, 
FERS, employee or Member, as opposed to a FERS revised annuity 
employee or FERS further revised annuity employee, is through 
application of the FERS revised annuity employee test. And that 
the new further revised annuity employee test only 
differentiates between FERS revised annuity employee coverage 
and new FERS further revised annuity employee coverage.

                        establishment of office

    Sec. 201. [2 U.S.C. 601] (a) In General.--
            (1) There is established an office of the Congress 
        to be known as the Congressional Budget Office 
        (hereinafter in this title referred to as the 
        ``Office''). The Office shall be headed by a Director; 
        and there shall be a Deputy Director who shall perform 
        such duties as may be assigned to him by the Director 
        and, during the absence or incapacity of the Director 
        or during a vacancy in that office, shall act as 
        Director.
            (2) The Director shall be appointed by the Speaker 
        of the House of Representatives and the President pro 
        tempore of the Senate after considering recommendations 
        received from the Committees on the Budget of the House 
        and the Senate, without regard to political affiliation 
        and solely on the basis of his fitness to perform his 
        duties. The Deputy Director shall be appointed by the 
        Director.
            (3) The term of office of the Director shall be 4 
        years and shall expire on January 3 of the year 
        preceding each Presidential election. Any individual 
        appointed as Director to fill a vacancy prior to the 
        expiration of a term shall serve only for the unexpired 
        portion of that term. An individual serving as Director 
        at the expiration of a term may continue to serve until 
        his successor is appointed. Any Deputy Director shall 
        serve until the expiration of the term of office of the 
        Director who appointed him (and until his successor is 
        appointed), unless sooner removed by the Director.
            (4) The Director may be removed by either House by 
        resolution.
            (5)(A) The Director shall receive compensation at 
        an annual rate of pay that is equal to the lower of--
                    (i) the highest annual rate of compensation 
                of any officer of the Senate; or
                    (ii) the highest annual rate of 
                compensation of any officer of the House of 
                Representatives.
            (B) The Deputy Director shall receive compensation 
        at an annual rate of pay that is $1,000 less than the 
        annual rate of pay received by the Director, as 
        determined under subparagraph (A).
    (b) Personnel.--The Director shall appoint and fix the 
compensation of such personnel as may be necessary to carry out 
the duties and functions of the Office. All personnel of the 
Office shall be appointed without regard to political

their duties. The Director may prescribe the duties and 
responsibilities of the personnel of the Office, and delegate 
to them authority to perform any of the duties, powers, and 
functions imposed on the Office or on the Director. For 
purposes of pay (other than pay of the Director and Deputy 
Director) and employment benefits, rights, and privileges, all 
personnel of the Office shall be treated as if they were 
employees of the House of Representatives.
    (c) Experts and Consultants.--In carrying out the duties 
and functions of the Office, the Director may procure the

States Code.
    (d) Relationship to Executive Branch.--The Director is 
authorized to secure information, data, estimates, and

departments, agencies, establishments, and regulatory agencies 
and commissions shall furnish the Director any available 
material which he determines to be necessary in the performance 
of his duties and functions (other than material the disclosure 
of which would be a violation of law). The Director is also 
authorized, upon agreement with the head of any such 
department, agency, establishment, or regulatory agency or 
commission, to utilize its services, facilities, and personnel 
with or without reimbursement; and the head of each such 
department, agency, establishment, or regulatory agency or 
commission is authorized to provide the Office such services, 
facilities, and personnel.
    (e) Relationship to Other Agencies of Congress.--In 
carrying out the duties and functions of the Office, and for

During that session of Congress such revenue estimates shall be

of the House of Representatives or the Senate requesting such 
estimates, and shall be used by such Committees in determining 
such estimates. The Budget Committees of the Senate and House 
shall determine all estimates with respect to scoring points of 
order and with respect to the execution of the purposes of this 
Act.

preceding sentence, but for a period not exceeding 12 months 
following the effective date of this subsection, the expenses 
of the Office shall be paid from the contingent fund of the 
Senate, in accordance with the paragraph relating to the

                shall provide estimates, if and to the extent

                        sector mandates to the extent that such 
                        mandates differ significantly from or 
                        extend beyond the 5-year time period

local, or tribal government, or likely to have a significant 
financial impact on the private sector, including any 
legislative proposal submitted by the executive branch likely

    (f) Achievement of Goals for Reducing Unemployment.--
            (1) If, pursuant to section 4(c) of the Employment 
        Act of 1946, the President recommends in the Economic 
        Report that the goals for reducing unemployment set 
        forth in section 4(b) of such Act be achieved in a year 
        after the close of the five-year period prescribed by 
        such subsection, the concurrent resolution on the 
        budget for the fiscal year beginning after the date on 
        which such Economic Report is received by the Congress 
        may set forth the year in which, in the opinion of the 
        Congress, such goals can be achieved.
            (2) After the Congress has expressed its opinion 
        pursuant to paragraph (1) as to the year in which the 
        goals for reducing unemployment set forth in section 
        4(b) of the Employment Act of 1946 can be achieved, if, 
        pursuant to section 4(e) of such Act, the President 
        recommends in the Economic Report that such goals be 
        achieved in a year which is different from the year in 
        which the Congress has expressed its opinion that such 
        goals should be achieved, either in its action pursuant 
        to paragraph (1) or in its most recent action pursuant 
        to this paragraph, the concurrent resolution on the 
        budget for the fiscal year beginning after the date on 
        which such Economic Report is received by the Congress 
        may set forth the year in which, in the opinion of the 
        Congress, such goals can be achieved.
            (3) It shall be in order to amend the provision of 
        such resolution setting forth such year only if the 
        amendment thereto also proposes to alter the estimates, 
        amounts, and levels (as described in subsection (a)) 
        set forth in such resolution in germane fashion in 
        order to be consistent with the economic goals (as 
        described in sections 3(a)(2) and (4)(b) of the 
        Employment Act of 1946) which such amendment proposes 
        can be achieved by the year specified in such 
        amendment.
    (g) Economic Assumptions.--
            (1) It shall not be in order in the Senate to 
        consider any concurrent resolution on the budget for a 
        fiscal year, or any amendment thereto, or any 
        conference report thereon, that sets forth amounts and 
        levels that are determined on the basis of more than 
        one set of economic and technical assumptions.
            (2) The joint explanatory statement accompanying a 
        conference report on a concurrent resolution on the 
        budget shall set forth the common economic assumptions 
        upon which such joint statement and conference report 
        are based, or upon which any amendment contained in the 
        joint explanatory statement to be proposed by the 
        conferees in the case of technical disagreement, is 
        based.
            (3) Subject to periodic reestimation based on 
        changed economic conditions or technical estimates, 
        determinations under titles III and IV of the 
        Congressional Budget Act of 1974 shall be based upon 
        such common economic and technical assumptions.
    (h) Budget Committees Consultation With Committees.--The 
Committee on the Budget of the House of Representatives shall 
consult with the committees of its House having legislative 
jurisdiction during the preparation, consideration, and 
enforcement of the concurrent resolution on the budget with 
respect to all matters which relate to the jurisdiction or 
functions of such committees.
    (i) Social Security Point of Order.--It shall not be in 
order in the Senate to consider any concurrent resolution on 
the budget (or amendment, motion, or conference report on the 
resolution) that would decrease the excess of social security 
revenues over social security outlays in any of the fiscal 
years covered by the concurrent resolution. No change in 
chapter 1 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 shall be treated 
as affecting the amount of social security revenues unless such 
provision changes the income tax treatment of social security 
benefits.

Allocations.--
            (1) Allocation among committees.--The joint 
        explanatory statement accompanying a conference report 
        on a concurrent resolution on the budget shall include 
        an allocation, consistent with the resolution 
        recommended in the conference report, of the levels for 
        the first fiscal year of the resolution, for at least 
        each of the ensuing 4 fiscal years, and a total for 
        that period of fiscal years (except in the case of the 
        Committee on Appropriations only for the fiscal year of 
        that resolution) of--
                    (A) total new budget authority; and
                    (B) total outlays;
        among each committee of the House of Representatives or 
        the Senate that has jurisdiction over legislation 
        providing or creating such amounts.
            (2) No double counting.--In the House of 
        Representatives, any item allocated to one committee 
        may not be allocated to another committee.
            (3) Further division of amounts.--
                    (A) In the senate.--In the Senate, the 
                amount allocated to the Committee on 
                Appropriations shall be further divided among 
                the categories specified in section 250(c)(4) 
                of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit 
                Control Act of 1985 and shall not exceed the 
                limits for each category set forth in section 
                251(c) of that Act.
                    (B) In the house.--In the House of 
                Representatives, the amounts allocated to each 
                committee for each fiscal year, other than the 
                Committee on Appropriations, shall be further 
                divided between amounts provided or required by 
                law on the date of filing of that conference 
                report and amounts not so provided or required. 
                The amounts allocated to the Committee on 
                Appropriations shall be further divided--
                            (i) between discretionary and 
                        mandatory amounts or programs, as 
                        appropriate; and
                            (ii) consistent with the categories 
                        specified in section 250(c)(4) of the 
                        Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit 
                        Control Act of 1985.
            (4) Amounts not allocated.--In the House of 
        Representatives or the Senate, if a committee receives 
        no allocation of new budget authority or outlays, that 
        committee shall be deemed to have received an 
        allocation equal to zero for new budget authority or 
        outlays.
            (5) Adjusting allocation of discretionary spending 
        in the house of representatives.--(A) If a concurrent 
        resolution on the budget is not adopted by April 15, 
        the chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the 
        House of Representatives shall submit to the House, as 
        soon as practicable, an allocation under paragraph (1) 
        to the Committee on Appropriations consistent with the 
        discretionary spending levels in the most recently 
        agreed to concurrent resolution on the budget for the 
        appropriate fiscal year covered by that resolution.
            (B) As soon as practicable after an allocation 
        under paragraph (1) is submitted under this section, 
        the Committee on Appropriations shall make 
        suballocations and report those suballocations to the 
        House of Representatives.
    (b) Suballocations by Appropriations Committees.--As soon 
as practicable after a concurrent resolution on the budget is 
agreed to, the Committee on Appropriations of each House (after 
consulting with the Committee on Appropriations of the other 
House) shall suballocate each amount allocated to it for the 
budget year under subsection (a) among its subcommittees. Each 
Committee on Appropriations shall promptly report to its House 
suballocations made or revised under this subsection. The 
Committee on Appropriations of the House of Representatives 
shall further divide among its subcommittees the divisions made 
under subsection (a)(3)(B) and promptly report those divisions 
to the House.
    (c) Point of Order.--After the Committee on Appropriations 
has received an allocation pursuant to subsection (a) for a 
fiscal year, it shall not be in order in the House of 
Representatives or the Senate to consider any bill, joint 
resolution, amendment, motion, or conference report within the 
jurisdiction of that committee providing new budget authority 
for that fiscal year, until that committee makes the 
suballocations required by subsection (b).
    (d) Subsequent Concurrent Resolutions.--In the case of a 
concurrent resolution on the budget referred to in section 304, 
the allocations under subsection (a) and the subdivisions under 
subsection (b) shall be required only to the extent necessary 
to take into account revisions made in the most recently agreed 
to concurrent resolution on the budget.
    (e) Alteration of Allocations.--At any time after a 
committee reports the allocations required to be made under 
subsection (b), such committee may report to its House an 
alteration of such allocations. Any alteration of such 
allocations must be consistent with any actions already taken 
by its House on legislation within the committee's 
jurisdiction.
    (f) Legislation Subject to Point of Order.--
            (1) In the house of representatives.--After the 
        Congress has completed action on a concurrent 
        resolution on the budget for a fiscal year, it shall 
        not be in order in the House of Representatives to 
        consider any bill, joint resolution, or amendment 
        providing new budget authority for any fiscal year, or 
        any conference report on any such bill or joint 
        resolution, if--
                    (A) the enactment of such bill or 
                resolution as reported;
                    (B) the adoption and enactment of such 
                amendment; or
                    (C) the enactment of such bill or 
                resolution in the form recommended in such 
                conference report,
        would cause the applicable allocation of new budget 
        authority made under subsection (a) or (b) for the 
        first fiscal year or the total of fiscal years to be 
        exceeded.
            (2) In the senate.--After a concurrent resolution 
        on the budget is agreed to, it shall not be in order in 
        the Senate to consider any bill, joint resolution, 
        amendment, motion, or conference report that would 
        cause--
                    (A) in the case of any committee except the 
                Committee on Appropriations, the applicable 
                allocation of new budget authority or outlays 
                under subsection (a) for the first fiscal year 
                or the total of fiscal years to be exceeded; or
                    (B) in the case of the Committee on 
                Appropriations, the applicable suballocation of 
                new budget authority or outlays under 
                subsection (b) to be exceeded.
    (g) Pay-as-You-Go Exception in the House.--
            (1) In general.--(A) Subsection (f)(1) and, after 
        April 15, section 303(a) shall not apply to any bill or 
        joint resolution, as reported, amendment thereto, or 
        conference report thereon if, for each fiscal year 
        covered by the most recently agreed to concurrent 
        resolution on the budget--
                    (i) the enactment of that bill or 
                resolution as reported;
                    (ii) the adoption and enactment of that 
                amendment; or
                    (iii) the enactment of that bill or 
                resolution in the form recommended in that 
                conference report,
        would not increase the deficit, and, if the sum of any 
        revenue increases provided in legislation already 
        enacted during the current session (when added to 
        revenue increases, if any, in excess of any outlay 
        increase provided by the legislation proposed for 
        consideration) is at least as great as the sum of the 
        amount, if any, by which the aggregate level of Federal 
        revenues should be increased as set forth in that 
        concurrent resolution and the amount, if any, by which 
        revenues are to be increased pursuant to pay-as-you-go 
        procedures under section 301(b)(8), if included in that 
        concurrent resolution.
            (B) Section 311(a), as that section applies to 
        revenues, shall not apply to any bill, joint 
        resolution, amendment thereto, or conference report 
        thereon if, for each fiscal year covered by the most 
        recently agreed to concurrent resolution on the 
        budget--
                    (i) the enactment of that bill or 
                resolution as reported;
                    (ii) the adoption and enactment of that 
                amendment; or
                    (iii) the enactment of that bill or 
                resolution in the form recommended in that 
                conference report,
        would not increase the deficit, and, if the sum of any 
        outlay reductions provided in legislation already 
        enacted during the current session (when added to 
        outlay reductions, if any, in excess of any revenue 
        reduction provided by the legislation proposed for 
        consideration) is at least as great as the sum of the 
        amount, if any, by which the aggregate level of Federal 
        outlays should be reduced as required by that 
        concurrent resolution and the amount, if any, by which 
        outlays are to be reduced pursuant to pay-as-you-go 
        procedures under section 301(b)(8), if included in that 
        concurrent resolution.
            (2) Revised allocations.--(A) As soon as 
        practicable after Congress agrees to a bill or joint 
        resolution that would have been subject to a point of 
        order under subsection (f)(1) but for the exception 
        provided in paragraph (1)(A) or would have been subject 
        to a point of order under section 311(a) but for the 
        exception provided in paragraph (1)(B), the chairman of 
        the Committee on the Budget of the House of 
        Representatives shall file with the House appropriately 
        revised allocations under section 302(a) and revised 
        functional levels and budget aggregates to reflect that 
        bill.
            (B) Such revised allocations, functional levels, 
        and budget aggregates shall be considered for the 
        purposes of this Act as allocations, functional levels, 
        and budget aggregates contained in the most recently 
        agreed to concurrent resolution on the budget.

   concurrent resolution on the budget must be adopted before budget-
                   related legislation is considered

    Sec. 303. \11\ [2 U.S.C. 634] (a) In General.--Until the 
concurrent resolution on the budget for a fiscal year has been 
agreed to, it shall not be in order in the House of 
Representatives, with respect to the first fiscal year covered 
by that resolution, or the Senate, with respect to any fiscal 
year covered by that resolution, to consider any bill or joint 
resolution, amendment or motion thereto, or conference report 
thereon that--
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    \11\ In the House, the application of section 303 was modified for 
the 106th Congress by section 2(a)(3) of H. Res. 5 (106th Congress) on 
January 6, 1999, to clarify that, in the case of a reported bill or 
joint resolution considered pursuant to a special order, determinations 
under section 303 are for the text made in order as an original bill or 
joint resolution for the purpose of amendment or to the text on which 
the previous question is ordered directly to passage.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (1) first provides new budget authority for that 
        fiscal year;
            (2) first provides an increase or decrease in 
        revenues during that fiscal year;
            (3) provides an increase or decrease in the public 
        debt limit to become effective during that fiscal year;
            (4) in the Senate only, first provides new 
        entitlement authority for that fiscal year; or
            (5) in the Senate only, first provides for an 
        increase or decrease in outlays for that fiscal year.
    (b) Exceptions in the House.--In the House of 
Representatives, subsection (a) does not apply--
            (1)(A) to any bill or joint resolution, as 
        reported, providing advance discretionary new budget 
        authority that first becomes available for the first or 
        second fiscal year after the budget year; or
            (B) to any bill or joint resolution, as reported, 
        first increasing or decreasing revenues in a fiscal 
        year following the fiscal year to which the concurrent 
        resolution applies;
            (2) after May 15, to any general appropriation bill 
        or amendment thereto; or
            (3) to any bill or joint resolution unless it is 
        reported by a committee.
    (c) Application to Appropriation Measures in the Senate.--
            (1) In general.--Until the concurrent resolution on 
        the budget for a fiscal year has been agreed to and an 
        allocation has been made to the Committee on 
        Appropriations of the Senate under section 302(a) for 
        that year, it shall not be in order in the Senate to 
        consider any appropriation bill or joint resolution, 
        amendment or motion thereto, or conference report 
        thereon for that year or any subsequent year.
            (2) Exception.--Paragraph (1) does not apply to 
        appropriations legislation making advance 
        appropriations for the first or second fiscal year 
        after the year the allocation referred to in that 
        paragraph is made.

     permissible revisions of concurrent resolutions on the budget

    Sec. 304. \12\ [2 U.S.C. 635] At any time after the 
concurrent resolution on the budget for a fiscal year has been 
agreed to pursuant to section 301, and before the end of such 
fiscal year, the two Houses may adopt a concurrent resolution 
on the budget which revises or reaffirms the concurrent

Representatives After Report of Committee; Debate.--
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    \13\ See clause 10(a) of rule XVIII of the Rules of the House of 
Representatives.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (1) When a concurrent resolution on the budget has 
        been reported by the Committee on the Budget of the 
        House of Representatives and has been referred to the 
        appropriate calendar of the House, it shall be in order 
        on any day thereafter, subject to clause 4 of rule XIII 
        of the Rules of the House of Representatives, to move 
        to proceed to the consideration of the concurrent 
        resolution. The motion is highly privileged and is not 
        debatable. An amendment to the motion is not in order 
        and it is not in order to move to reconsider the vote 
        by which the motion is agreed to or disagreed to.
            (2) General debate on any concurrent resolution on 
        the budget in the House of Representatives shall be 
        limited to not more than 10 hours, which shall be 
        divided equally between the majority and minority 
        parties, plus such additional hours of debate as are 
        consumed pursuant to paragraph (3). A motion further to 
        limit debate is not debatable. A motion to recommit the 
        concurrent resolution is not in order, and it is not in 
        order to move to reconsider the vote by which the 
        concurrent resolution is agreed to or disagreed to.
            (3) Following the presentation of opening 
        statements on the concurrent resolution on the budget 
        for a fiscal year by the chairman and ranking minority 
        member of the Committee on the Budget of the House, 
        there shall be a period of up to four hours for debate 
        on economic goals and policies.
            (4) Only if a concurrent resolution on the budget 
        reported by the Committee on the Budget of the House 
        sets forth the economic goals (as described in sections 
        3(a)(2) and (4)(b) of the Full Employment Act of 1946) 
        which the estimates, amounts, and levels (as described 
        in section 301(a)) set forth in such resolution are 
        designed to achieve, shall it be in order to offer to 
        such resolution an amendment relating to such goals, 
        and such amendment shall be in order only if it also 
        proposes to alter such estimates, amounts, and levels 
        in germane fashion in order to be consistent with the 
        goals proposed in such amendment.
            (5) \14\ Consideration of any concurrent resolution 
        on the budget by the House of Representatives shall be 
        in the Committee of the Whole, and the resolution shall 
        be considered for amendment under the five-minute rule 
        in accordance with the applicable provisions of rule 
        XVIII of the Rules of the House of Representatives. 
        After the Committee rises and reports the resolution 
        back to the House, the previous question shall be 
        considered as ordered on the resolution and any 
        amendments thereto to final passage without intervening 
        motion; except that it shall be in order at any time 
        prior to final passage (notwithstanding any other rule 
        or provision of law) to adopt an amendment (or a series 
        of amendments) changing any figure or figures in the 
        resolution as so reported to the extent necessary to 
        achieve mathematical consistency.

            (6) Debate in the House of Representatives on the 
        conference report on any concurrent resolution on the 
        budget shall be limited to not more than 5 hours, which 
        shall be divided equally between the majority and 
        minority parties. A motion further to limit debate is 
        not debatable. A motion to recommit the conference 
        report is not in order, and it is not in order to move 
        to reconsider the vote by which the conference report 
        is agreed to or disagreed to.
            (7) Appeals from decisions of the Chair relating to 
        the application of the Rules of the House of 
        Representatives to the procedure relating to any 
        concurrent resolution on the budget shall be decided 
        without debate.
    (b) Procedure in Senate After Report of Committee; Debate; 
Amendments.--
            (1) Debate in the Senate on any concurrent 
        resolution on the budget, and all amendments thereto 
        and debatable motions and appeals in connection 
        therewith, shall be limited to not more than 50 hours, 
        except that with respect to any concurrent resolution 
        referred to in section 304 all such debate shall be 
        limited to not more than 15 hours. The time shall be 
        equally divided between, and controlled by, the 
        majority leader and the minority leader or their 
        designees.
            (2) Debate in the Senate on any amendment to a 
        concurrent resolution on the budget shall be limited to 
        2 hours, to be equally divided between, and controlled 
        by, the mover and the manager of the concurrent 
        resolution, and debate on any amendment to an 
        amendment, debatable motion, or appeal shall be limited 
        to 1 hour, to be equally divided between, and 
        controlled by, the mover and the manager of the 
        concurrent resolution, except that in the event the 
        manager of the concurrent resolution is in favor of any 
        such amendment, motion, or appeal, the time in 
        opposition thereto shall be controlled by the minority 
        leader or his designee. No amendment that is not 
        germane to the provisions of such concurrent resolution 
        shall be received. Such leaders, or either of them, 
        may, from the time under their control on the passage 
        of the concurrent resolution, allot additional time to 
        any Senator during the consideration of any amendment, 
        debatable motion, or appeal.
            (3) Following the presentation of opening 
        statements on the concurrent resolution on the budget 
        for a fiscal year by the chairman and ranking minority 
        member of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate, 
        there shall be a period of up to four hours for debate 
        on economic goals and policies.
            (4) Subject to the other limitations of this Act, 
        only if a concurrent resolution on the budget reported 
        by the Committee on the Budget of the Senate sets forth 
        the economic goals (as described in sections 3(a)(2) 
        and 4(b) of the Employment Act of 1946) which the 
        estimates, amounts, and levels (as described in section 
        301(a)) set forth in such resolution are designed to 
        achieve, shall it be in order to offer to such 
        resolution an amendment relating to such goals, and 
        such amendment shall be in order only if it also 
        proposes to alter such estimates, amounts, and levels 
        in germane fashion in order to be consistent with the 
        goals proposed in such amendment.
            (5) A motion to further limit debate is not 
        debatable. A motion to recommit (except a motion to 
        recommit with instructions to report back within a 
        specified number of days, not to exceed 3, not counting 
        any day on which the Senate is not in session) is not 
        in order. Debate on any such motion to recommit shall 
        be limited to 1 hour, to be equally divided between, 
        and controlled by, the mover and the manager of the 
        concurrent resolution.
            (6) Notwithstanding any other rule, an amendment or 
        series of amendments to a concurrent resolution on the 
        budget proposed in the Senate shall always be in order 
        if such amendment or series of amendments proposes to 
        change any figure or figures then contained in such 
        concurrent resolution so as to make such concurrent 
        resolution mathematically consistent or so as to 
        maintain such consistency.
    (c) Action on Conference Reports in the Senate.--

        has been disagreed to.
            (2) During the consideration in the Senate of the 
        conference report (or a message between Houses) on any 
        concurrent resolution on the budget, and all amendments 
        in disagreement, and all amendments thereto, and 
        debatable motions and appeals in connection therewith, 
        debate shall be limited to 10 hours, to be equally 
        divided between, and controlled by, the majority leader 
        and minority leader or their designees. Debate on any 
        debatable motion or appeal related to the conference 
        report (or a message between Houses) shall be limited 
        to 1 hour, to be equally divided between, and 
        controlled by, the mover and the manager of the 
        conference report (or a message between Houses).

        debate on any request for a new conference and the 
        appointment of conferrees shall be limited to 1 hour, 
        to be equally divided between, and controlled by, the 
        manager of the conference report and the minority 
        leader or his designee, and should any motion be made 
        to instruct the conferees before the conferees are 
        named, debate on such motion shall be limited to one-
        half hour, to be equally divided between, and 
        controlled by, the mover and the manager of the 
        conference report. Debate on any amendment to any such 
        instructions shall be limited to 20 minutes, to be 
        equally divided between and controlled by the mover and 
        the manager of the conference report. In all cases when 
        the manager of the conference report is in favor of any 
        motion, appeal, or amendment, the time in opposition 
        shall be under the control of the minority leader or 
        his designee.
            (4) In any case in which there are amendments in 
        disagreement, time on each amendment shall be limited 
        to 30 minutes, to be equally divided between, and 
        controlled by, the manager of the conference report and 
        the minority leader or his designee. No amendment that 
        is not germane to the provisions of such amendments 
        shall be received.

        mathematically consistent; or
            (2) a conference report on a concurrent resolution 
        on the budget unless the figures contained in such 
        resolution, as recommended in such conference report, 
        are mathematically consistent.

House of Representatives.
    \16\ Section 4(b)(1)(B) of Public Law 111-139 provides for an 
amendment to the subsection heading in section 308(a). Such amendment 
did not include the correct casing as it appeared in the law; however, 
the amendment was executed here by striking the language as it appeared 
in the law to reflect the probable intent of Congress.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (1) Whenever a committee of either House reports to 
        its House a bill or joint resolution, or committee 
        amendment thereto, providing new budget authority 
        (other than continuing appropriations) or providing an 
        increase or decrease in revenues or tax expenditures 
        for a fiscal year (or fiscal years), the report 
        accompanying that bill or joint resolution shall 
        contain a statement, or the committee shall make 
        available such a statement in the case of an approved 
        committee amendment which is not reported to its House, 
        prepared after consultation with the Director of the 
        Congressional Budget Office--
                    (A) comparing the levels in such measure to 
                the appropriate allocations in the reports 
                submitted under section 302(b) for the most 
                recently agreed to concurrent resolution on the 
                budget for such fiscal year (or fiscal years);
                    (B) containing a projection by the 
                Congressional Budget Office of how such measure 
                will affect the levels of such budget 
                authority, budget outlays, revenues, or tax 
                expenditures under existing law for such fiscal 
                year (or fiscal years) and each of the four 
                ensuing fiscal years, if timely submitted 
                before such report is filed; and
                    (C) containing an estimate by the 
                Congressional Budget Office of the level of new 
                budget authority for assistance to State and 
                local governments provided by such measure, if 
                timely submitted before such report is filed.
            (2) Whenever a conference report is filed in either 
        House and such conference report or any amendment 
        reported in disagreement or any amendment contained in 
        the joint statement of managers to be proposed by the 
        conferees in the case of technical disagreement on such 
        bill or joint resolution provides new budget authority 
        (other than continuing appropriations) or provides an 
        increase or decrease in revenues for a fiscal year (or 
        fiscal years), the statement of managers accompanying 
        such conference report shall contain the information 
        described in paragraph (1), if available on a timely 
        basis. If such information is not available when the 
        conference report is filed, the committee shall make 
        such information available to Members as soon as 
        practicable prior to the consideration of such 
        conference report.
            (3) CBO paygo estimates.--
                    (A) The Chairs of the Committees on the 
                Budget of the House and Senate, as applicable, 
                shall request from the Director of the 
                Congressional Budget Office an estimate of the 
                budgetary effects of PAYGO legislation.
                    (B) Estimates shall be prepared using 
                baseline estimates supplied by the 
                Congressional Budget Office, consistent with 
                section 257 of the Balanced Budget and 
                Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985.
                    (C) The Director shall not count timing 
                shifts, as that term is defined at section 3(8) 
                of the Statutory Pay-As-You-Go Act of 2010, in 
                estimates of the budgetary effects of PAYGO 
                Legislation.
    (b) Up-To-Date Tabulations of Congressional Budget 
Action.--
            (1) The Director of the Congressional Budget Office 
        shall issue to the committees of the House of

        congressional action on bills and joint resolutions 
        providing new budget authority or providing an increase 
        or decrease in revenues or tax expenditures for each 
        fiscal year covered by a concurrent resolution on the 
        budget. Such reports shall include but are not limited 
        to an up-to-date tabulation comparing the appropriate 
        aggregate and functional levels (including outlays) 
        included in the most recently adopted concurrent 
        resolution on the budget with the levels provided in 
        bills and joint resolutions reported by committees or 
        adopted by either House or by the Congress, and with 
        the levels provided by law for the fiscal year 
        preceding the first fiscal year covered by the 
        appropriate concurrent resolution.
            (2) The Committee on the Budget of each House shall 
        make available to Members of its House summary budget 
        scorekeeping reports. Such reports--
                    (A) shall be made available on at least a 
                monthly basis, but in any case frequently 
                enough to provide Members of each House an 
                accurate representation of the current status 
                of congressional consideration of the budget;
                    (B) shall include, but are not limited to

                under subsection (b)(1) without substantive 
                revision.
The chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the House of 
Representatives shall submit such reports to the Speaker.
    (c) Five-Year Projection of Congressional Budget Act.--As 
soon as practicable after the beginning of each fiscal year, 
the Director of the Congressional Budget Office shall issue a

        fiscal year in such period;
            (3) tax expenditures for each fiscal year in such 
        period; and
            (4) entitlement authority for each fiscal year in 
        such period.
    (d) Scorekeeping Guidelines.--Estimates under this section 
shall be provided in accordance with the scorekeeping 
guidelines determined under section 252(d)(5) of the Balanced 
Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985.

             house approval of regular appropriation bills

    Sec. 309. [2 U.S.C. 640] It shall not be in order in the 
House of Representatives to consider any resolution providing 
for an adjournment period of more than three calendar days 
during the month of July until the House of Representatives has 
approved annual appropriation bills providing new budget 
authority under the jurisdiction of all the subcommittees of 
the Committee on Appropriations for the fiscal year beginning 
on October 1 of such year. For purposes of this section, the 
chairman of the Committee on Appropriations of the House of 
Representatives shall periodically advise the Speaker as to 
changes in jurisdiction among its various subcommittees.

concurrent resolution on the budget for any fiscal year, to the 
extent necessary to effectuate the provisions and requirements

                    (A) new budget authority for such fiscal 
                year;
                    (B) budget authority initially provided for 
                prior fiscal years;
                    (C) new entitlement authority which is to 
                become effective during such fiscal year; and
                    (D) credit authority for such fiscal year,
        contained in laws, bills, and resolutions within the 
        jurisdiction of a committee is to be changed and direct 
        that committee to determine and recommend changes to 
        accomplish a change of such total amount;
            (2) specify the total amount by which revenues are 
        to be changed and direct that the committees having

to in accordance with subsection (a), and--
            (1) only one committee of the House or the Senate 
        is directed to determine and recommend changes, that 
        committee shall promptly make such determination and 
        recommendations and report to its House reconciliation 
        legislation containing such recommendations; or
            (2) more than one committee of the House or the 
        Senate is directed to determine and recommend changes, 
        each such committee so directed shall promptly make 
        such determination and recommendations and submit such 
        recommendations to the Committee on the Budget of its 
        House, which upon receiving all such recommendations, 
        shall report to its House reconciliation legislation 
        carrying out all such recommendations without any 
        substantive revision.
For purposes of this subsection, a reconciliation resolution is 
a concurrent resolution directing the Clerk of the House of 
Representatives or the Secretary of the Senate, as the case may 
be, to make specified changes in bills and resolutions which 
have not been enrolled.

within its jurisdiction, shall be deemed to have complied with 
such directions--
            (A) if--
                    (i) the amount of the changes of the type 
                described in paragraph (1) of such subsection

                resolution to recommend under that paragraph by 
                more than--
                            (I) in the Senate, 20 percent of 
                        the total of the amounts of the changes 
                        such committee was directed to make 
                        under paragraphs (1) and (2) of such 
                        subsection; or
                            (II) in the House of 
                        Representatives, 20 percent of the sum 
                        of the absolute value of the changes

                        under paragraph (1) and the absolute 
                        value of the changes the committee was 
                        directed to make under paragraph (2); 
                        and
                    (ii) the amount of the changes of the type 
                described in paragraph (2) of such subsection 
                recommended by such committee do not exceed or 
                fall below the amount of the changes such 
                committee was directed by such concurrent 
                resolution to recommend under that paragraph by 
                more than--
                            (I) in the Senate, 20 percent of 
                        the total of the amounts of the changes 
                        such committee was directed to make

                        subsection; or
                            (II) in the House of 
                        Representatives, 20 percent of the sum 
                        of the absolute value of the changes 
                        the committee was directed to make 
                        under paragraph (1) and the absolute 
                        value of the changes the committee was 
                        directed to make under paragraph (2); 
                        and
            (B) if the total amount of the changes recommended 
        by such committee is not less than the total of the 
        amounts of the changes such committee was directed to 
        make under paragraphs (1) and (2) of such subsection.
            (2)(A) Upon the reporting to the Committee on the 
        Budget of the Senate of a recommendation that shall be 
        deemed to have complied with such directions solely by 
        virtue of this subsection, the chairman of that 
        committee may file with the Senate appropriately 
        revised allocations under section 302(a) and revised 
        functional levels and aggregates to carry out this 
        subsection.
            (B) Upon the submission to the Senate of a

        subsection, the chairman of the Committee on the Budget 
        of the Senate may file with the Senate appropriately 
        revised allocations under section 302(a) and revised 
        functional levels and aggregates to carry out this 
        subsection.
            (C) Allocations, functional levels, and aggregates 
        revised pursuant to this paragraph shall be considered 
        to be allocations, functional levels, and aggregates 
        contained in the concurrent resolution on the budget 
        pursuant to section 301.
            (D) Upon the filing of revised allocations pursuant 
        to this paragraph, the reporting committee shall report 
        revised allocations pursuant to section 302(b) to carry 
        out this subsection.
    (d) Limitation on Amendments to Reconciliation Bills and 
Resolutions.--
            (1) It shall not be in order in the House of 
        Representatives to consider any amendment to a 
        reconciliation bill or reconciliation resolution if 
        such amendment would have the effect of increasing any 
        specific budget outlays above the level of such outlays 
        provided in the bill or resolution (for the fiscal 
        years covered by the reconciliation instructions set 
        forth in the most recently agreed to concurrent 
        resolution on the budget), or would have the effect of 
        reducing any specific Federal revenues below the level 
        of such revenues provided in the bill or resolution 
        (for such fiscal years), unless such amendment makes at 
        least an equivalent reduction in other specific budget 
        outlays, an equivalent increase in other specific 
        Federal revenues, or an equivalent combination thereof 
        (for such fiscal years), except that a motion to strike 
        a provision providing new budget authority or new 
        entitlement authority may be in order.
            (2) It shall not be in order in the Senate to 
        consider any amendment to a reconciliation bill or 
        reconciliation resolution if such amendment would have 
        the effect of decreasing any specific budget outlay 
        reductions below the level of such outlay reductions 
        provided (for the fiscal years covered) in the 
        reconciliation instructions which relate to such bill 
        or resolution set forth in a resolution providing for 
        reconciliation, or would have the effect of reducing 
        Federal revenue increases below the level of such 
        revenue increases provided (for such fiscal years) in 
        such instructions relating to such bill or resolution, 
        unless such amendment makes a reduction in other 
        specific budget outlays, an increase in other specific 
        Federal revenues, or a combination thereof (for such 
        fiscal years) at least equivalent to any increase in 
        outlays or decrease in revenues provided by such 
        amendment, except that a motion to strike a provision 
        shall always be in order.
            (3) Paragraphs (1) and (2) shall not apply if a 
        declaration of war by the Congress is in effect.
            (4) For purposes of this section, the levels of 
        budget outlays and Federal revenues for a fiscal year 
        shall be determined on the basis of estimates made by 
        the Committee on the Budget of the House of 
        Representatives or of the Senate, as the case may be.
            (5) The Committee on Rules of the House of 
        Representatives may make in order amendments to achieve 
        changes specified by reconciliation directives 
        contained in a concurrent resolution on the budget if a 
        committee or committees of the House fail to submit 
        recommended changes to its Committee on the Budget 
        pursuant to its instruction.
    (e) Procedure in the Senate.--
            (1) Except as provided in paragraph (2), the 
        provisions of section 305 for the consideration in the 
        Senate of concurrent resolutions on the budget and 
        conference reports thereon shall also apply to the 
        consideration in the Senate of reconciliation bills 
        reported under subsection (b) and conference reports 
        thereon.
            (2) Debate in the Senate on any reconciliation bill 
        reported under subsection (b), and all amendments 
        thereto and debatable motions and appeals in connection 
        therewith, shall be limited to not more than 20 hours.
    (f) Completion of Reconciliation Process.--It shall not be 
in order in the House of Representatives to consider any 
resolution providing for an adjournment period of more than 
three calendar days during the month of July until the House of 
Representatives has completed action on the reconciliation 
legislation for the fiscal year beginning on October 1 of the 
calendar year to which the adjournment resolution pertains, if 
reconciliation legislation is required to be reported by the 
concurrent resolution on the budget for such fiscal year.
    (g) Limitation on Changes to the Social Security Act.--
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, it shall not be in 
order in the Senate or the House of Representatives to consider 
any reconciliation bill or reconciliation resolution reported 
pursuant to a concurrent resolution on the budget agreed to 
under section 301 or 304, or a joint resolution pursuant to 
section 258C of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit 
Control Act of 1985, or any amendment thereto or conference 
report thereon, that contains recommendations with respect to 
the old-age, survivors, and disability insurance program 
established under title II of the Social Security Act.

      budget-related legislation must be within appropriate levels

    Sec. 311. [2 U.S.C. 642] (a) Enforcement of Budget 
Aggregates.--
            (1) In the house of representatives.--Except as 
        provided by subsection (c), after the Congress has 
        completed action on a concurrent resolution on the 
        budget for a fiscal year, it shall not be in order in 
        the House of Representatives to consider any bill, 
        joint resolution, amendment, motion, or conference 
        report providing new budget authority or reducing 
        revenues, if--
                    (A) the enactment of that bill or 
                resolution as reported;
                    (B) the adoption and enactment of that 
                amendment; or
                    (C) the enactment of that bill or 
                resolution in the form recommended in that 
                conference report;
        would cause the level of total new budget authority or 
        total outlays set forth in the applicable concurrent 
        resolution on the budget for the first fiscal year to 
        be exceeded, or would cause revenues to be less than 
        the level of total revenues set forth in that 
        concurrent resolution for the first fiscal year or for 
        the total of that first fiscal year and the ensuing 
        fiscal years for which allocations are provided under 
        section 302(a), except when a declaration of war by the 
        Congress is in effect.
            (2) In the senate.--After a concurrent resolution 
        on the budget is agreed to, it shall not be in order in 
        the Senate to consider any bill, joint resolution, 
        amendment, motion, or conference report that--
                    (A) would cause the level of total new 
                budget authority or total outlays set forth for 
                the first fiscal year in the applicable 
                resolution to be exceeded; or
                    (B) would cause revenues to be less than 
                the level of total revenues set forth for that 
                first fiscal year or for the total of that 
                first fiscal year and the ensuing fiscal years 
                in the applicable resolution for which 
                allocations are provided under section 302(a).
            (3) Enforcement of social security levels in the 
        senate.--After a concurrent resolution on the budget is 
        agreed to, it shall not be in order in the Senate to 
        consider any bill, joint resolution, amendment, motion, 
        or conference report that would cause a decrease in 
        social security surpluses or an increase in social 
        security deficits relative to the levels set forth in 
        the applicable resolution for the first fiscal year or 
        for the total of that fiscal year and the ensuing 
        fiscal years for which allocations are provided under 
        section 302(a).
    (b) Social Security Levels.--
            (1) In general.--For purposes of subsection (a)(3), 
        social security surpluses equal the excess of social 
        security revenues over social security outlays in a 
        fiscal year or years with such an excess and social 
        security deficits equal the excess of social security 
        outlays over social security revenues in a fiscal year 
        or years with such an excess.
            (2) Tax treatment.--For purposes of subsection 
        (a)(3), no provision of any legislation involving a 
        change in chapter 1 of the Internal Revenue Code of 
        1986 shall be treated as affecting the amount of social 
        security revenues or outlays unless that provision 
        changes the income tax treatment of social security 
        benefits.
    (c) Exception in the House of Representatives.--Subsection 
(a)(1) shall not apply in the House of Representatives to any 
bill, joint resolution, or amendment that provides new budget 
authority for a fiscal year or to any conference report on any 
such bill or resolution, if--
            (1) the enactment of that bill or resolution as 
        reported;
            (2) the adoption and enactment of that amendment; 
        or
            (3) the enactment of that bill or resolution in the 
        form recommended in that conference report;
would not cause the appropriate allocation of new budget 
authority made pursuant to section 302(a) for that fiscal year 
to be exceeded.

                   determinations and points of order

    Sec. 312. [2 U.S.C. 643] (a) Budget Committee 
Determinations.--For purposes of this title and title IV, the 
levels of new budget authority, outlays, direct spending, new 
entitlement authority, and revenues for a fiscal year shall be 
determined on the basis of estimates made by the Committee on 
the Budget of the House of Representatives or the Senate, as 
applicable.
    (b) Discretionary Spending Point of Order in the Senate.--
            (1) In general.--Except as otherwise provided in 
        this subsection, it shall not be in order in the Senate 
        to consider any bill or resolution (or amendment, 
        motion, or conference report on that bill or 
        resolution) that would exceed any of the discretionary 
        spending limits in section 251(c) of the Balanced 
        Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985.
            (2) Exceptions.--This subsection shall not apply if 
        a declaration of war by the Congress is in effect or if 
        a joint resolution pursuant to section 258 of the 
        Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 
        1985 has been enacted.
    (c) Maximum Deficit Amount Point of Order in the Senate.--
It shall not be in order in the Senate to consider any 
concurrent resolution on the budget for a fiscal year, or to 
consider any amendment to that concurrent resolution, or to 
consider a conference report on that concurrent resolution, 
if--
            (1) the level of total outlays for the first fiscal 
        year set forth in that concurrent resolution or 
        conference report exceeds; or
            (2) the adoption of that amendment would result in 
        a level of total outlays for that fiscal year that 
        exceeds;
the recommended level of Federal revenues for that fiscal year, 
by an amount that is greater than the maximum deficit amount, 
if any, specified in the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit 
Control Act of 1985 for that fiscal year.
    (d) Timing of Points of Order in the Senate.--A point of 
order under this Act may not be raised against a bill, 
resolution, amendment, motion, or conference report while an 
amendment or motion, the adoption of which would remedy the 
violation of this Act, is pending before the Senate.
    (e) Points of Order in the Senate Against Amendments 
Between the Houses.--Each provision of this Act that 
establishes a point of order against an amendment also 
establishes a point of order in the Senate against an amendment 
between the Houses. If a point of order under this Act is 
raised in the Senate against an amendment between the Houses 
and the point of order is sustained, the effect shall be the 
same as if the Senate had disagreed to the amendment.
    (f) Effect of a Point of Order in the Senate.--In the 
Senate, if a point of order under this Act against a bill or 
resolution is sustained, the Presiding Officer shall then 
recommit the bill or resolution to the committee of appropriate 
jurisdiction for further consideration.

            extraneous matter in reconciliation legislation

    Sec. 313. [2 U.S.C. 644] (a) In General.--When the Senate 
is considering a reconciliation bill or a reconciliation 
resolution pursuant to section 310 (whether that bill or 
resolution originated in the Senate or the House) or section 
258C of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act 
of 1985, upon a point of order being made by any Senator 
against material extraneous to the instructions to a committee 
which is contained in any title or provision of the bill or 
resolution or offered as an amendment to the bill or 
resolution, and the point of order is sustained by the Chair, 
any part of said title or provision that contains material 
extraneous to the instructions to said Committee as defined in 
subsection (b) shall be deemed stricken from the bill and may 
not be offered as an amendment from the floor.
    (b) Extraneous Provisions.--(1)(A) Except as provided in 
paragraph (2), a provision of a reconciliation bill or 
reconciliation resolution considered pursuant to section 310 
shall be considered extraneous if such provision does not 
produce a change in outlays or revenue, including changes in 
outlays and revenues brought about by changes in the terms and 
conditions under which outlays are made or revenues are 
required to be collected (but a provision in which outlay 
decreases or revenue increases exactly offset outlay increases 
or revenue decreases shall not be considered extraneous by 
virtue of this subparagraph); (B) any provision producing an 
increase in outlays or decrease in revenues shall be considered 
extraneous if the net effect of provisions reported by the 
Committee reporting the title containing the provision is that 
the Committee fails to achieve its reconciliation instructions; 
(C) a provision that is not in the jurisdiction of the 
Committee with jurisdiction over said title or provision shall 
be considered extraneous; (D) a provision shall be considered 
extraneous if it produces changes in outlays or revenues which 
are merely incidental to the non-budgetary components of the 
provision; (E) a provision shall be considered to be extraneous 
if it increases, or would increase, net outlays, or if it 
decreases, or would decrease, revenues during a fiscal year 
after the fiscal years covered by such reconciliation bill or 
reconciliation resolution, and such increases or decreases are 
greater than outlay reductions or revenue increases resulting 
from other provisions in such title in such year; and (F) a 
provision shall be considered extraneous if it violates section 
310(g).
    (2) A Senate-originated provision shall not be considered 
extraneous under paragraph (1)(A) if the Chairman and Ranking 
Minority Member of the Committee on the Budget and the Chairman 
and Ranking Minority Member of the Committee which reported the 
provision certify that: (A) the provision mitigates direct 
effects clearly attributable to a provision changing outlays or 
revenue and both provisions together produce a net reduction in 
the deficit; (B) the provision will result in a substantial 
reduction in outlays or a substantial increase in revenues 
during fiscal years after the fiscal years covered by the 
reconciliation bill or reconciliation resolution; (C) a 
reduction of outlays or an increase in revenues is likely to 
occur as a result of the provision, in the event of new 
regulations authorized by the provision or likely to be 
proposed, court rulings on pending litigation, or relationships 
between economic indices and stipulated statutory triggers 
pertaining to the provision, other than the regulations, court 
rulings or relationships currently projected by the 
Congressional Budget Office for scorekeeping purposes; or (D) 
such provision will be likely to produce a significant 
reduction in outlays or increase in revenues but, due to 
insufficient data, such reduction or increase cannot be 
reliably estimated.
    (3) A provision reported by a committee shall not be 
considered extraneous under paragraph (1)(C) if (A) the 
provision is an integral part of a provision or title, which if 
introduced as a bill or resolution would be referred to such 
committee, and the provision sets forth the procedure to carry 
out or implement the substantive provisions that were reported 
and which fall within the jurisdiction of such committee; or 
(B) the provision states an exception to, or a special 
application of, the general provision or title of which it is a 
part and such general provision or title if introduced as a 
bill or resolution would be referred to such committee.
    (c) Extraneous Materials.--Upon the reporting or discharge 
of a reconciliation bill or resolution pursuant to section 310 
in the Senate, and again upon the submission of a conference 
report on such a reconciliation bill or resolution, the 
Committee on the Budget of the Senate shall submit for the 
record a list of material considered to be extraneous under 
subsections (b)(1)(A), (b)(1)(B), and (b)(1)(E) of this section 
to the instructions of a committee as provided in this section. 
The inclusion or exclusion of a provision shall not constitute 
a determination of extraneousness by the Presiding Officer of 
the Senate.
    (d) Conference Reports.--When the Senate is considering a 
conference report on, or an amendment between the Houses in 
relation to, a reconciliation bill or reconciliation resolution 
pursuant to section 310, upon--
            (1) a point of order being made by any Senator 
        against extraneous material meeting the definition of 
        subsections (b)(1)(A), (b)(1)(B), (b)(1)(D), (b)(1)(E), 
        or (b)(1)(F), and
            (2) such point of order being sustained,
such material contained in such conference report or amendment 
shall be deemed stricken, and the Senate shall proceed, without 
intervening action or motion, to consider the question of 
whether the Senate shall recede from its amendment and concur 
with a further amendment, or concur in the House amendment with 
a further amendment, as the case may be, which further 
amendment shall consist of only that portion of the conference 
report or House amendment, as the case may be, not so stricken. 
Any such motion in the Senate shall be debatable for two hours. 
In any case in which such point of order is sustained against a 
conference report (or Senate amendment derived from such 
conference report by operation of this subsection), no further 
amendment shall be in order.
    (e) General Point of Order.--Notwithstanding any other law 
or rule of the Senate, it shall be in order for a Senator to 
raise a single point of order that several provisions of a 
bill, resolution, amendment, motion, or conference report 
violate this section. The Presiding Officer may sustain the 
point of order as to some or all of the provisions against 
which the Senator raised the point of order. If the Presiding 
Officer so sustains the point of order as to some of the 
provisions (including provisions of an amendment, motion, or 
conference report) against which the Senator raised the point 
of order, then only those provisions (including provisions of 
an amendment, motion, or conference report) against which the 
Presiding Officer sustains the point of order shall be deemed 
stricken pursuant to this section. Before the Presiding Officer 
rules on such a point of order, any Senator may move to waive 
such a point of order as it applies to some or all of the 
provisions against which the point of order was raised. Such a 
motion to waive is amendable in accordance with the rules and 
precedents of the Senate. After the Presiding Officer rules on 
such a point of order, any Senator may appeal the ruling of the 
Presiding Officer on such a point of order as it applies to 
some or all of the provisions on which the Presiding Officer 
ruled.

                              adjustments

    Sec. 314. [2 U.S.C. 645] (a) Adjustments.--After the 
reporting of a bill or joint resolution or the offering of an 
amendment thereto or the submission of a conference report 
thereon, the chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the 
House of Representatives or the Senate may make appropriate 
budgetary adjustments of new budget authority and the outlays 
flowing therefrom in the same amount as required by section 
251(b) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act 
of 1985.
    (b) Application of Adjustments.--The adjustments made 
pursuant to subsection (a) for legislation shall--
            (1) apply while that legislation is under 
        consideration;
            (2) take effect upon the enactment of that 
        legislation; and
            (3) be published in the Congressional Record as 
        soon as practicable.
    (c) Reporting Revised Suballocations.--Following any 
adjustment made under subsection (a), the Committees on 
Appropriations of the Senate and the House of Representatives 
may report appropriately revised suballocations under section 
302(b) to carry out this section.
    (d) Emergencies in the House of Representatives.--(1) In 
the House of Representatives, if a reported bill or joint 
resolution, or amendment thereto or conference report thereon, 
contains a provision providing new budget authority and outlays 
or reducing revenue, and a designation of such provision as an 
emergency requirement pursuant to 251(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced 
Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, the chair of 
the Committee on the Budget of the House of Representatives 
shall not count the budgetary effects of such provision for 
purposes of title III and title IV of the Congressional Budget 
Act of 1974 and the Rules of the House of Representatives.
    (2)
    (A) In the House of Representatives, a proposal to strike a 
designation under paragraph (1) shall be excluded from an 
evaluation of budgetary effects for purposes of this title and 
title IV and the Rules of the House of Representatives.
    (B) An amendment offered under subparagraph (A) that also 
proposes to reduce each amount appropriated or otherwise made 
available by the pending measure that is not required to be 
appropriated or otherwise made available shall be in order at 
any point in the reading of the pending measure.
    (e) Senate Point of Order Against an Emergency 
Designation.--
            (1) In general.--When the Senate is considering a 
        bill, resolution, amendment, motion, amendment between 
        the Houses, or conference report, if a point of order 
        is made by a Senator against an emergency designation 
        in that measure, that provision making such a 
        designation shall be stricken from the measure and may 
        not be offered as an amendment from the floor.
            (2) Supermajority waiver and appeals.--
                    (A) Waiver.--Paragraph (1) may be waived or 
                suspended in the Senate only by an affirmative 
                vote of three-fifths of the Members, duly 
                chosen and sworn.
                    (B) Appeals.--Appeals in the Senate from 
                the decisions of the Chair relating to any 
                provision of this subsection shall be limited 
                to 1 hour, to be equally divided between, and 
                controlled by, the appellant and the manager of 
                the bill or joint resolution, as the case may 
                be. An affirmative vote of three-fifths of the 
                Members of the Senate, duly chosen and sworn, 
                shall be required to sustain an appeal of the 
                ruling of the Chair on a point of order raised 
                under this subsection.
            (3) Definition of an emergency designation.--For 
        purposes of paragraph (1), a provision shall be 
        considered an emergency designation if it designates 
        any item pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A)(i) of the 
        Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 
        1985.
            (4) Form of the point of order.--A point of order 
        under paragraph (1) may be raised by a Senator as 
        provided in section 313(e) of the Congressional Budget 
        Act of 1974.
            (5) Conference reports.--When the Senate is 
        considering a conference report on, or an amendment 
        between the Houses in relation to, a bill, upon a point 
        of order being made by any Senator pursuant to this 
        section, and such point of order being sustained, such 
        material contained in such conference report shall be 
        deemed stricken, and the Senate shall proceed to 
        consider the question of whether the Senate shall 
        recede from its amendment and concur with a further 
        amendment, or concur in the House amendment with a 
        further amendment, as the case may be, which further 
        amendment shall consist of only that portion of the 
        conference report or House amendment, as the case may 
        be, not so stricken. Any such motion in the Senate 
        shall be debatable. In any case in which such point of 
        order is sustained against a conference report (or 
        Senate amendment derived from such conference report by 
        operation of this subsection), no further amendment 
        shall be in order.
    (f) Enforcement of Discretionary Spending Caps.--It shall 
not be in order in the House of Representatives or the Senate 
to consider any bill, joint resolution, amendment, motion, or 
conference report that would cause the discretionary spending 
limits as set forth in section 251 of the Balanced Budget and 
Emergency Deficit Control Act to be exceeded.

   Effect of adoption of a special order of business in the house of 
                            representatives

    Sec. 315. [2 U.S.C. 645a] For purposes of a reported bill 
or joint resolution considered in the House of Representatives 
pursuant to a special order of business, the term ``as 
reported'' in this title or title IV shall be considered to 
refer to the text made in order as an original bill or joint 
resolution for the purpose of amendment or to the text on which 
the previous question is ordered directly to passage, as the 
case may be. In the case of a reported bill or joint resolution 
considered pursuant to a special order of business, a point of 
order under section 303 shall be determined on the basis of the 
text made in order as an original bill or joint resolution for 
the purpose of amendment or to the text on which the previous 
question is ordered directly to passage, as the case may be.

      TITLE IV--ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS TO IMPROVE FISCAL PROCEDURES

                       Part A--General Provisions

        budget-related legislation not subject to appropriations

    Sec. 401. [2 U.S.C. 651] (a) Controls on Certain Budget-
related Legislation Not Subject to Appropriations.--It shall 
not be in order in either the House of Representatives or the 
Senate to consider any bill or joint resolution (in the House 
of Representatives only, as reported), amendment, motion, or 
conference report that provides--
            (1) new authority to enter into contracts under 
        which the United States is obligated to make outlays;
            (2) new authority to incur indebtedness (other than 
        indebtedness incurred under chapter 31 of title 31 of 
        the United States Code) for the repayment of which the 
        United States is liable; or
            (3) new credit authority;
unless that bill, joint resolution, amendment, motion, or 
conference report also provides that the new authority is to be 
effective for any fiscal year only to the extent or in the 
amounts provided in advance in appropriation Acts.
    (b) Legislation Providing New Entitlement Authority.--
            (1) Point of order.--It shall not be in order in 
        either the House of Representatives or the Senate to 
        consider any bill or joint resolution (in the House of 
        Representatives only, as reported), amendment, motion, 
        or conference report that provides new entitlement 
        authority that is to become effective during the 
        current fiscal year. \17\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    \17\ In the House, section 401(b) was clarified by section 2(a)(2) 
of H. Res. 5 (106th Congress) on January 6, 1999, to explain that 
pending the adoption by the Congress of a concurrent resolution on the 
budget for fiscal year 2000, a provision in a reported bill or joint 
resolution, or in an amendment thereto or a conference report thereon, 
that establishes a specified or minimum level of compensation to be 
funded by annual discretionary appropriations should not be considered 
as providing new entitlement authority within the meaning of the 
Congressional Budget Act of 1974.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (2) If any committee of the House of 
        Representatives or the Senate reports any bill or 
        resolution which provides new entitlement authority 
        which is to become effective during a fiscal year and 
        the amount of new budget authority which will be 
        required for such fiscal year if such bill or 
        resolution is enacted as so reported exceeds the 
        appropriate allocation of new budget authority reported 
        under section 302(a) in connection with the most 
        recently agreed to concurrent resolution on the budget 
        for such fiscal year, such bill or resolution shall 
        then be referred to the Committee on Appropriations of 
        the Senate or may then be referred to the Committee on 
        Appropriations of the House, as the case may be, with 
        instructions to report it, with the committee's 
        recommendations, within 15 calendar days (not counting 
        any day on which that House is not in session) 
        beginning with the day following the day on which it is 
        so referred. If the Committee on Appropriations of 
        either House fails to report a bill or resolution 
        referred to it under this paragraph within such 15-day 
        period, the committee shall automatically be discharged 
        from further consideration of such bill or resolution 
        and such bill or resolution shall be placed on the 
        appropriate calendar.
            (3) The Committee on Appropriations of each House 
        shall have jurisdiction to report any bill or 
        resolution referred to it under paragraph (2) with an 
        amendment which limits the total amount of new spending 
        authority provided in such bill or resolution.
    (c) Exceptions.--
            (1) Subsections (a) and (b) shall not apply to new 
        spending authority if the budget authority for outlays 
        which will result from such new spending authority is 
        derived \18\--
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    \18\ Section 10116(a)(4)(A) of Public Law 105-33 provides for an 
amendment to strike ``new spending authority if the budget authority 
for outlays which result from such new spending authority is derived'' 
and insert ``new authority described in those subsections if outlays 
from that new authority will flow''.
    Such amendment could not be carried out because the word ``will'' 
appears after ``for outlays which'' in law.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
                    (A) from a trust fund established by the 
                Social Security Act (as in effect on the date 
                of the enactment of this Act); or
                    (B) from any other trust fund, 90 percent 
                or more of the receipts of which consist or 
                will consist of amounts (transferred from the 
                general fund of the Treasury) equivalent to 
                amounts of taxes (related to the purposes for 
                which such outlays are or will be made) 
                received in the Treasury under specified 
                provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 
                1954.
            (2) Subsections (a) and (b) shall not apply to new 
        authority described in those subsections to the extent 
        that--
                    (A) the outlays resulting therefrom are 
                made by an organization which is (i) a mixed-
                ownership Government corporation (as defined in 
                section 201 of the Government Corporation 
                Control Act), or (ii) a wholly owned Government 
                corporation (as defined in section 101 of such 
                Act) which is specifically exempted by law from 
                compliance with any or all of the provisions of 
                that Act, as of the date of enactment of the 
                Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control 
                Act of 1985; or
                    (B) the outlays resulting therefrom consist 
                exclusively of the proceeds of gifts or 
                bequests made to the United States for a 
                specific purpose.
            (3) In the House of Representatives, subsections 
        (a) and (b) shall not apply to new authority described 
        in those subsections to the extent that a provision in 
        a bill or joint resolution, or an amendment thereto or 
        a conference report thereon, establishes prospectively 
        for a Federal office or position a specified or minimum 
        level of compensation to be funded by annual 
        discretionary appropriations.

        States Code, but does not include independent 
        regulatory agencies.

                estimated amounts that all State, local, and 
                tribal governments would be required to spend 
                or would be prohibited from raising in revenues 
                in order to comply with the Federal 
                intergovernmental mandate; or

                        State, local, and tribal governments 
                        (in the case of a Federal 
                        intergovernmental mandate) or the 
                        private sector (in the case of a 
                        Federal private sector mandate) would

                                elimination would result in 
                                increased net costs to State, 
                                local, or tribal governments in 
                                providing education or

                                aliens; except that this 
                                subclause shall not be in 
                                effect with respect to a State, 
                                local, or tribal government, to 
                                the extent that such government 
                                has not fully cooperated in the 
                                efforts of the Federal 
                                Government to locate,

                in the legislation, whether the resulting

                program assuming the States fully implement 
                that additional flexibility.
            (4) Estimate not feasible.--If the Director

Thresholds.--If the Director estimates that the direct costs of 
a Federal mandate will not equal or exceed the thresholds 
specified in subsections (a) and (b), the Director shall so 
state and shall briefly explain the basis of the estimate.

                                    (aa) a statement that the 
                                agency has determined, based on 
                                a re-estimate of the direct 
                                costs of such mandate, after 
                                consultation with State, local, 
                                and tribal governments, that 
                                the amount appropriated is 
                                sufficient to pay for the 
                                direct costs of such mandate; 
                                or

                                mandate or making such mandate 
                                ineffective for the fiscal

                                statement referred to in 
                                subclause (I)(aa), cease to be 
                                effective 60 days after the 
                                statement is submitted unless 
                                Congress has approved the 
                                agency's determination by joint 
                                resolution during the 60-day 
                                period;
                                    (bb) cease to be effective 
                                60 days after the date the

                                the responsible Federal agency 
                                are submitted to Congress under 
                                subclause (I)(bb) unless 
                                Congress provides otherwise by 
                                law; or
                                    (cc) in the case that such 
                                mandate that has not yet taken 
                                effect, continue not to be 
                                effective unless Congress

SEC. 428. [2 U.S.C. 658G] CLARIFICATION OF APPLICATION.

    (a) In General.--This part applies to any bill, joint 
resolution, amendment, motion, or conference report that 
reauthorizes appropriations, or that amends existing 
authorizations of appropriations, to carry out any statute, or 
that otherwise amends any statute, only if enactment of the 
bill, joint resolution, amendment, motion, or conference 
report--
            (1) would result in a net reduction in or 
        elimination of authorization of appropriations for 
        Federal financial assistance that would be provided to 
        State, local, or tribal governments for use for the 
        purpose of complying with any Federal intergovernmental 
        mandate, or to the private sector for use to comply 
        with any Federal private sector mandate, and would not 
        eliminate or reduce duties established by the Federal 
        mandate by a corresponding amount; or
            (2) would result in a net increase in the aggregate 
        amount of direct costs of Federal intergovernmental 
        mandates or Federal private sector mandates other than 
        as described in paragraph (1).
    (b) Direct Costs.--
            (1) In general.--For purposes of this part, the 
        direct cost of the Federal mandates in a bill, joint 
        resolution, amendment, motion, or conference report 
        that reauthorizes appropriations, or that amends 
        existing authorizations of appropriations, to carry out 
        a statute, or that otherwise amends any statute, means 
        the net increase, resulting from enactment of the bill, 
        joint resolution, amendment, motion, or conference 
        report, in the amount described under paragraph (2)(A) 
        over the amount described under paragraph (2)(B).
            (2) Amounts.--The amounts referred to under 
        paragraph (1) are--
                    (A) the aggregate amount of direct costs of 
                Federal mandates that would result under the 
                statute if the bill, joint resolution, 
                amendment, motion, or conference report is 
                enacted; and
                    (B) the aggregate amount of direct costs of 
                Federal mandates that would result under the 
                statute if the bill, joint resolution, 
                amendment, motion, or conference report were 
                not enacted.
            (3) Extension of authorization of appropriations.--
        For purposes of this section, in the case of 
        legislation to extend authorization of appropriations, 
        the authorization level that would be provided by the 
        extension shall be compared to the authorization level 
        for the last year in which authorization of 
        appropriations is already provided.

SEC. 501. [2 U.S.C. 661] PURPOSES.

    The purposes of this title are to--
            (1) measure more accurately the costs of Federal 
        credit programs;
            (2) place the cost of credit programs on a 
        budgetary basis equivalent to other Federal spending;

SEC. 502. [2 U.S.C. 661A] DEFINITIONS.

    For purposes of this title--
            (1) The term ``direct loan'' means a disbursement 
        of funds by the Government to a non-Federal borrower 
        under a contract that requires the repayment of such 
        funds with or without interest. The term includes the 
        purchase of, or participation in, a loan made by 
        another lender and financing arrangements that defer 
        payment for more than 90 days, including the sale of a 
        government asset on credit terms. The term does not 
        include the acquisition of a federally guaranteed loan 
        in satisfaction of default claims or the price support 
        loans of the Commodity Credit Corporation.
            (2) The term ``direct loan obligation'' means a 
        binding agreement by a Federal agency to make a direct 
        loan when specified conditions are fulfilled by the 
        borrower.
            (3) The term ``loan guarantee'' means any 
        guarantee, insurance, or other pledge with respect to 
        the payment of all or a part of the principal or 
        interest on any debt obligation of a non-Federal 
        borrower to a non-Federal lender, but does not include 
        the insurance of deposits, shares, or other 
        withdrawable accounts in financial institutions.
            (4) The term ``loan guarantee commitment'' means a 
        binding agreement by a Federal agency to make a loan 
        guarantee when specified conditions are fulfilled by 
        the borrower, the lender, or any other party to the 
        guarantee agreement.
            (5)(A) The term ``cost'' means the estimated long-
        term cost to the Government of a direct loan or loan 
        guarantee or modification thereof, calculated on a net 
        present value basis, excluding administrative costs and 
        any incidental effects on governmental receipts or 
        outlays.
            (B) The cost of a direct loan shall be the net 
        present value, at the time when the direct loan is 
        disbursed, of the following estimated cash flows:
                    (i) loan disbursements;
                    (ii) repayments of principal; and
                    (iii) payments of interest and other 
                payments by or to the Government over the life 
                of the loan after adjusting for estimated 
                defaults, prepayments, fees, penalties, and 
                other recoveries;
        including the effects of changes in loan terms 
        resulting from the exercise by the borrower of an 
        option included in the loan contract.
            (C) The cost of a loan guarantee shall be the net 
        present value, at the time when the guaranteed loan is 
        disbursed, of the following estimated cash flows:
                    (i) payments by the Government to cover 
                defaults and delinquencies, interest subsidies, 
                or other payments; and
                    (ii) payments to the Government including 
                origination and other fees, penalties and 
                recoveries;
        including the effects of changes in loan terms 
        resulting from the exercise by the guaranteed lender of 
        an option included in the loan guarantee contract, or 
        by the borrower of an option included in the guaranteed 
        loan contract.
            (D) The cost of a modification is the difference 
        between the current estimate of the net present value 
        of the remaining cash flows under the terms of a direct 
        loan or loan guarantee contract, and the current 
        estimate of the net present value of the remaining cash 
        flows under the terms of the contract, as modified.
            (E) In estimating net present values, the discount 
        rate shall be the average interest rate on marketable 
        Treasury securities of similar maturity to the cash 
        flows of the direct loan or loan guarantee for which 
        the estimate is being made.
            (F) When funds are obligated for a direct loan or 
        loan guarantee, the estimated cost shall be based on 
        the current assumptions, adjusted to incorporate the 
        terms of the loan contract, for the fiscal year in 
        which the funds are obligated.
            (6) The term ``credit program account'' means the 
        budget account into which an appropriation to cover the 
        cost of a direct loan or loan guarantee program is made 
        and from which such cost is disbursed to the financing 
        account.
            (7) The term ``financing account'' means the non-
        budget account or accounts associated with each credit 
        program account which holds balances, receives the cost 
        payment from the credit program account, and also 
        includes all other cash flows to and from the 
        Government resulting from direct loan obligations or 
        loan guarantee commitments made on or after October 1, 
        1991.
            (8) The term ``liquidating account'' means the 
        budget account that includes all cash flows to and from 
        the Government resulting from direct loan obligations 
        or loan guarantee commitments made prior to October 1, 
        1991. These accounts shall be shown in the budget on a 
        cash basis.
            (9) The term ``modification'' means any Government 
        action that alters the estimated cost of an outstanding 
        direct loan (or direct loan obligation) or an 
        outstanding loan guarantee (or loan guarantee 
        commitment) from the current estimate of cash flows. 
        This includes the sale of loan assets, with or without 
        recourse, and the purchase of guaranteed loans. This 
        also includes any action resulting from new 
        legislation, or from the exercise of administrative 
        discretion under existing law, that directly or 
        indirectly alters the estimated cost of outstanding 
        direct loans (or direct loan obligations) or loan 
        guarantees (or loan guarantee commitments) such as a 
        change in collection procedures.
            (10) The term ``current'' has the same meaning as 
        in section 250(c)(9) of the Balanced Budget and 
        Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985.
            (11) The term ``Director'' means the Director of 
        the Office of Management and Budget.

    (f) Administrative Costs.--The Director and the Director of 
the Congressional Budget Office shall each analyze and report 
to Congress on differences in long-term administrative costs 
for credit programs versus grant programs by January 31, 1992. 
Their reports shall recommend to Congress any changes, if 
necessary, in the treatment of administrative costs under

SEC. 504. [2 U.S.C. 661C] BUDGETARY TREATMENT.

    (a) President's Budget.--Beginning with fiscal year 1992, 
the President's budget shall reflect the costs of direct loan 
and loan guarantee programs. The budget shall also include the 
planned level of new direct loan obligations or loan guarantee 
commitments associated with each appropriations request.
    (b) Appropriations Required.--Notwithstanding any other 
provision of law, new direct loan obligations may be incurred 
and new loan guarantee commitments may be made for fiscal year 
1992 and thereafter only to the extent that--
            (1) new budget authority to cover their costs is 
        provided in advance in an appropriations Act;
            (2) a limitation on the use of funds otherwise 
        available for the cost of a direct loan or loan 
        guarantee program has been provided in advance in an 
        appropriations Act; or
            (3) authority is otherwise provided in 
        appropriation Acts.
    (c) Exemption for Mandatory Programs.--Subsections (b) and 
(e) shall not apply to a direct loan or loan guarantee program 
that--
            (1) constitutes an entitlement (such as the 
        guaranteed student loan program or the veterans' home 
        loan guaranty program); or
            (2) all existing credit programs of the Commodity 
        Credit Corporation on the date of enactment of this 
        title.
    (d) Budget Accounting.--
            (1) The authority to incur new direct loan 
        obligations, make new loan guarantee commitments, or 
        modify outstanding direct loans (or direct loan 
        obligations) or loan guarantees (or loan guarantee 
        commitments) shall constitute new budget authority in 
        an amount equal to the cost of the direct loan or loan 
        guarantee in the fiscal year in which definite 
        authority becomes available or indefinite authority is 
        used. Such budget authority shall constitute an 
        obligation of the credit program account to pay to the 
        financing account.
            (2) The outlays resulting from new budget authority 
        for the cost of direct loans or loan guarantees 
        described in paragraph (1) shall be paid from the 
        credit program account into the financing account and 
        recorded in the fiscal year in which the direct loan or 
        the guaranteed loan is disbursed or its costs altered.
            (3) All collections and payments of the financing 
        accounts shall be a means of financing.
    (e) Modifications.--An outstanding direct loan (or direct 
loan obligation) or loan guarantee (or loan guarantee 
commitment) shall not be modified in a manner that increases 
its costs unless budget authority for the additional cost has 
been provided in advance in an appropriations Act.
    (f) Reestimates.--When the estimated cost for a group of 
direct loans or loan guarantees for a given credit program made 
in a single fiscal year is reestimated in a subsequent year, 
the difference between the reestimated cost and the previous 
cost estimate shall be displayed as a distinct and separately 
identified subaccount in the credit program account as a change 
in program costs and a change in net interest. There is hereby 
provided permanent indefinite authority for these reestimates.
    (g) Administrative Expenses.--All funding for an agency's 
administration of a direct loan or loan guarantee program shall 
be displayed as distinct and separately identified subaccounts 
within the same budget account as the program's cost.

SEC. 505. [2 U.S.C. 661D] AUTHORIZATIONS.

    (a) Authorization of Appropriations for Costs.--There are 
authorized to be appropriated to each Federal agency authorized 
to make direct loan obligations or loan guarantee commitments, 
such sums as may be necessary to pay the cost associated with 
such direct loan obligations or loan guarantee commitments.
    (b) Authorization for Financing Accounts.--In order to 
implement the accounting required by this title, the President 
is authorized to establish such non-budgetary accounts as may 
be appropriate.
    (c) Treasury Transactions With the Financing Accounts.--The 
Secretary of the Treasury shall borrow from, receive from, lend 
to, or pay to the financing accounts such amounts as may be 
appropriate. The Secretary of the Treasury may prescribe forms 
and denominations, maturities, and terms and conditions for the 
transactions described above, except that the rate of interest 
charged by the Secretary on lending to financing accounts 
(including amounts treated as lending to financing accounts by 
the Federal Financing Bank (hereinafter in this subsection 
referred to as the ``Bank'') pursuant to section 405(b)) and 
the rate of interest paid to financing accounts on uninvested 
balances in financing accounts shall be the same as the rate 
determined pursuant to section 502(5)(E). For guaranteed loans 
financed by the Bank and treated as direct loans by a Federal 
agency pursuant to section 405(b), any fee or interest 
surcharge (the amount by which the interest rate charged 
exceeds the rate determined pursuant to section 502(5)(E)) that 
the Bank charges to a private borrower pursuant to section 6(c) 
of the Federal Financing Bank Act of 1973 shall be considered a 
cash flow to the Government for the purposes of determining the 
cost of the direct loan pursuant to section 502(5). All such 
amounts shall be credited to the appropriate financing account. 
The Bank is authorized to require reimbursement from a Federal 
agency to cover the administrative expenses of the Bank that 
are attributable to the direct loans financed for that agency. 
All such payments by an agency shall be considered 
administrative expenses subject to section 504(g). This 
subsection shall apply to transactions related to direct loan 
obligations or loan guarantee commitments made on or after 
October 1, 1991. The authorities described above shall not be 
construed to supersede or override the authority of the head of 
a Federal agency to administer and operate a direct loan or 
loan guarantee program. All of the transactions provided in 
this subsection shall be subject to the provisions of 
subchapter II of chapter 15 of title 31, United States Code. 
Cash balances of the financing accounts in excess of current 
requirements shall be maintained in a form of uninvested funds 
and the Secretary of the Treasury shall pay interest on these 
funds.
    (d) Authorization for Liquidating Accounts.--(1) Amounts in 
liquidating accounts shall be available only for payments 
resulting from direct loan obligations or loan guarantee 
commitments made prior to October 1, 1991, for--
            (A) interest payments and principal repayments to 
        the Treasury or the Federal Financing Bank for amounts 
        borrowed;
            (B) disbursements of loans;
            (C) default and other guarantee claim payments;
            (D) interest supplement payments;
            (E) payments for the costs of foreclosing, 
        managing, and selling collateral that are capitalized 
        or routinely deducted from the proceeds of sales;
            (F) payments to financing accounts when required 
        for modifications;
            (G) administrative expenses, if--
                    (i) amounts credited to the liquidating 
                account would have been available for 
                administrative expenses under a provision of 
                law in effect prior to October 1, 1991; and
                    (ii) no direct loan obligation or loan 
                guarantee commitment has been made, or any 
                modification of a direct loan or loan guarantee 
                has been made, since September 30, 1991; or
            (H) such other payments as are necessary for the 
        liquidation of such direct loan obligations and loan 
        guarantee commitments.
    (2) Amounts credited to liquidating accounts in any year 
shall be available only for payments required in that year. Any 
unobligated balances in liquidating accounts at the end of a 
fiscal year shall be transferred to miscellaneous receipts as 
soon as practicable after the end of the fiscal year.
    (3) If funds in liquidating accounts are insufficient to 
satisfy obligations and commitments of such accounts, there is 
hereby provided permanent, indefinite authority to make any 
payments required to be made on such obligations and 
commitments.
    (e) Authorization of Appropriations for Implementation 
Expenses.--There are authorized to be appropriated to existing 
accounts such sums as may be necessary for salaries and 
expenses to carry out the responsibilities under this title.
    (f) Reinsurance.--Nothing in this title shall be construed 
as authorizing or requiring the purchase of insurance or 
reinsurance on a direct loan or loan guarantee from private 
insurers. If any such reinsurance for a direct loan or loan 
guarantee is authorized, the cost of such insurance and any 
recoveries to the Government shall be included in the 
calculation of the cost.
    (g) Eligibility and Assistance.--Nothing in this title 
shall be construed to change the authority or the 
responsibility of a Federal agency to determine the terms and 
conditions of eligibility for, or the amount of assistance 
provided by a direct loan or a loan guarantee.

or insurance activities of the Federal Deposit Insurance 
Corporation, National Credit Union Administration, Resolution 
Trust Corporation, Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation, 
National Flood Insurance, National Insurance Development Fund, 
Crop Insurance, or Tennessee Valley Authority.
    (b) Study.--The Director and the Director of the 
Congressional Budget Office shall each study whether the 
accounting for Federal deposit insurance programs should be on 
a cash basis on the same basis as loan guarantees, or on a 
different basis. Each Director shall report findings and 
recommendations to the President and the Congress on or before 
May 31, 1991.
    (c) Access to Data.--For the purposes of subsection (b), 
the Office of Management and Budget and the Congressional 
Budget Office shall have access to all agency data that may 
facilitate these studies.

SEC. 507. [2 U.S.C. 661F] EFFECT ON OTHER LAWS.

    (a) Effect on Other Laws.--This title shall supersede, 
modify, or repeal any provision of law enacted prior to the 
date of enactment of this title to the extent such provision is 
inconsistent with this title. Nothing in this title shall be 
construed to establish a credit limitation on any Federal loan 
or loan guarantee program.
    (b) Crediting of Collections.--Collections resulting from 
direct loans obligated or loan guarantees committed prior to 
October 1, 1991, shall be credited to the liquidating accounts 
of Federal agencies. Amounts so credited shall be available, to 
the same extent that they were available prior to the date of 
enactment of this title, to liquidate obligations arising from 
such direct loans obligated or loan guarantees committed prior 
to October 1, 1991, including repayment of any obligations held 
by the Secretary of the Treasury or the Federal Financing Bank. 
The unobligated balances of such accounts that are in excess of 
current needs shall be transferred to the general fund of the 
Treasury. Such transfers shall be made from time to time but, 
at least once each year.

            (1) ``deferral of budget authority'' includes--
                    (A) withholding or delaying the obligations 
                or expenditure of budget authority (whether by 
                establishing reserves or otherwise) provided 
                for projects or activities; or
                    (B) any other type of Executive action or 
                inaction which effectively precludes the

        1012, and upon which the Congress completes action 
        before the end of the first period of 45 calendar days 
        of continuous session of the Congress after the date on

            (5) continuity of a session of the Congress shall 
        be considered as broken only by an adjournment of the

        paragraph (3) of this section and in section 1012, and 
        the 25-day periods referred to in sections 1016 and

        shall be deemed to have been retransmitted on the first 
        day of the succeeding Congress and the 45-day period 
        referred to in paragraph (3) of this section and

    Sec. 1012. [2 U.S.C. 683] (a) Transmittal of Special 
Message.--Whenever the President determines that all or part of 
any budget authority will not be required to carry out the full 
objectives or scope of programs for which it is provided or 
that such budget authority should be rescinded for fiscal 
policy or other reasons (including the determination of 
authorized projects or activities for which budget authority 
has been provided), or whenever all or part of budget authority 
provided for only one fiscal year is to be reserved from 
obligation for such fiscal year, the President shall transmit 
to both Houses of Congress a special message specifying--
            (1) the amount of budget authority which he 
        proposes to be rescinded or which is to be so reserved;
            (2) any account, department, or establishment of 
        the Government to which such budget authority is 
        available for obligation, and the specific project or 
        governmental functions involved;
            (3) the reasons why the budget authority should be 
        rescinded or is to be so reserved;
            (4) to the maximum extent practicable, the 
        estimated fiscal, economic, and budgetary effect of the 
        proposed rescission or of the reservation; and
            (5) all facts, circumstances, and considerations 
        relating to or bearing upon the proposed rescission or 
        the reservation and the decision to effect the proposed 
        rescission or the reservation, and to the maximum 
        extent practicable, the estimated effect of the 
        proposed rescission or the reservation upon the 
        objects, purposes, and programs for which the budget 
        authority is provided.
    (b) Requirement To Make Available for Obligation.--Any 
amount of budget authority proposed to be rescinded or that is 
to be reserved as set forth in such special message shall be 
made available for obligation unless, within the prescribed 45-
day period, the Congress has completed action on a rescission 
bill rescinding all or part of the amount proposed to be 
rescinded or that is to be reserved. Funds made available for 
obligation under this procedure may not be proposed for 
rescission again.

                 proposed deferrals of budget authority

    Sec. 1013. [2 U.S.C. 684] (a) Transmittal of Special 
Message.--Whenever the President, the Director of the Office of 
Management and Budget, the head of any department or agency of 
the United States, or any officer or employee of the United 
States proposes to defer any budget authority provided for a 
specific purpose or project, the President shall transmit to 
the House of Representatives and the Senate a special message 
specifying--
            (1) the amount of the budget authority proposed to 
        be deferred;
            (2) any account, department, or establishment of 
        the Government to which such budget authority is 
        available for obligation, and the specific project or 
        governmental functions involved;
            (3) the period of time during which the budget 
        authority is proposed to be deferred;
            (4) the reasons for the proposed deferral, 
        including any legal authority invoked to justify the 
        proposed deferral;
            (5) to the maximum extent practicable, the 
        estimated fiscal, economic, and budgetary effect of the 
        proposed deferral; and
            (6) all facts, circumstances, and considerations 
        relating to or bearing upon the proposed deferral and 
        the decision to effect the proposed deferral, including 
        an analysis of such facts, circumstances, and 
        considerations in terms of their application to any 
        legal authority, including specific elements of legal 
        authority, invoked to justify such proposed deferral, 
        and to the maximum extent practicable, the estimated 
        effect of the proposed deferral upon the objects, 
        purposes, and programs for which the budget authority 
        is provided.
A special message may include one or more proposed deferrals of 
budget authority. A deferral may not be proposed for any period 
of time extending beyond the end of the fiscal year in which 
the special message proposing the deferral is transmitted to 
the House and the Senate.
    (b) Consistency With Legislative Policy.--Deferrals shall 
be permissible only--
            (1) to provide for contingencies;
            (2) to achieve savings made possible by or through 
        changes in requirements or greater efficiency of 
        operations; or
            (3) as specifically provided by law.
No officer or employee of the United States may defer any 
budget authority for any other purpose.
    (c) Exception.--The provisions of this section do not apply 
to any budget authority proposed to be rescinded or that is to 
be reserved as set forth in a special message required to be 
transmitted under section 1012.

                 transmission of messages; publication

    Sec. 1014. [2 U.S.C. 685] (a) Delivery to House and 
Senate.--Each special message transmitted under section 1012 or 
1013 shall be transmitted to the House of Representatives and 
the Senate on the same day, and shall be delivered to the Clerk 
of the House of Representatives if the House is not in session, 
and to the Secretary of the Senate if the Senate is not in 
session. Each special message so transmitted shall be referred 
to the appropriate committee of the House of Representatives 
and the Senate. Each such message shall be printed as a 
document of each House.
    (b) Delivery to Comptroller General.--A copy of each 
special message transmitted under section 1012 or 1013 shall be 
transmitted to the Comptroller General on the same day it is 
transmitted to the House of Representatives and the Senate. In 
order to assist the Congress in the exercise of its functions 
under sections 1012 and 1013, the Comptroller General shall 
review each such message and inform the House of 
Representatives and the Senate as promptly as practicable with 
respect to----
            (1) in the case of a special message transmitted 
        under section 1012, the facts surrounding the proposed 
        rescission or the reservation of budget authority 
        (including the probable effects thereof); and
            (2) in the case of a special message transmitted 
        under section 1013, (A) the facts surrounding each 
        proposed deferral of budget authority (including the 
        probable effects thereof) and (B) whether or not (or to 
        what extent), in his judgment, such proposed deferral 
        is in accordance with existing statutory authority.
    (c) Transmission of Supplementary Messages.--If any 
information contained in a special message transmitted under 
section 1012 or 1013 is subsequently revised, the President 
shall transmit to both Houses of Congress and the Comptroller 
General a supplementary message stating and explaining such 
revision. Any such supplementary message shall be delivered, 
referred, and printed as provided in subsection (a). The 
Comptroller General shall promptly notify the House of 
Representatives and the Senate of any change in the information 
submitted by him under subsection (b) which may be necessitated 
by such revision.
    (d) Printing in Federal Register.--Any special message 
transmitted under section 1012 or 1013, and any supplementary 
message transmitted under subsection (c), shall be printed in 
the first issue of the Federal Register published after such 
transmittal.
    (e) Cumulative Reports of Proposed Rescissions, 
Reservations, and Deferrals of Budget Authority.--
            (1) The President shall submit a report to the 
        House of Representatives and the Senate, not later than 
        the 10th day of each month during a fiscal year, 
        listing all budget authority for that fiscal year with 
        respect to which, as of the first day of such month--
                    (A) he has transmitted a special message 
                under section 1012 with respect to a proposed 
                rescission or a reservation; and
                    (B) he has transmitted a special message 
                under section 1013 proposing a deferral.
        Such report shall also contain, with respect to each 
        such proposed rescission or deferral, or each such 
        reservation, the information required to be submitted 
        in the special message with respect thereto under 
        section 1012 or 1013.
            (2) Each report submitted under paragraph (1) shall 
        be printed in the first issue of the Federal Register 
        published after its submission.

                     reports by comptroller general

    Sec. 1015. [2 U.S.C. 686] (a) Failure To Transmit Special 
Message.--If the Comptroller General finds that the President, 
the Director of the Office of Management and Budget, the head 
of any department or agency of the United States, or any other 
officer or employee of the United States--
            (1) is to establish a reserve or proposes to defer 
        budget authority with respect to which the President is 
        required to transmit a special message under section 
        1012 or 1013; or
            (2) has ordered, permitted, or approved the 
        establishment of such a reserve or a deferral of budget 
        authority;
and that the President has failed to transmit a special message 
with respect to such reserve or deferral, the Comptroller 
General shall make a report on such reserve or deferral and any 
available information concerning it to both Houses of Congress. 
The provisions of this part shall apply with respect to such 
reserve or deferral in the same manner and with the same effect 
as if such report of the Comptroller General were a special 
message transmitted by the President under section 1012 or 
1013, and, for purposes of this part, such report shall be 
considered a special message transmitted under section 1012 or 
1013.
    (b) Incorrect Classification of Special Message.--If the 
President has transmitted a special message to both Houses of 
Congress in accordance with section 1012 or 1013, and the 
Comptroller General believes that the President so transmitted 
the special message in accordance with one of those sections 
when the special message should have been transmitted in 
accordance with the other of those sections, the Comptroller 
General shall make a report to both Houses of the Congress 
setting forth his reasons.

                      suits by comptroller general

    Sec. 1016. [2 U.S.C. 687] If, under this title, budget 
authority is required to be made available for obligation and 
such budget authority is not made available for obligation, the 
Comptroller General is hereby expressly empowered, through 
attorneys of his own selection, to bring a civil action in the 
United States District Court for the District of Columbia to 
require such budget authority to be made available for 
obligation, and such court is hereby expressly empowered to 
enter in such civil action, against any department, agency, 
officer, or employee of the United States, any decree, 
judgment, or order, which may be necessary or appropriate to 
make such budget authority available for obligation. No civil 
action shall be brought by the Comptroller General under this 
section until the expiration of 25 calendar days of continuous 
session of the Congress following the date on which an 
explanatory statement by the Comptroller General of the 
circumstances giving rise to the action contemplated has been 
filed with the Speaker of the House of Representatives and the 
President of the Senate.

                     procedure in house and senate

    Sec. 1017. [2 U.S.C. 688] (a) Referral.--Any rescission 
bill introduced with respect to a special message or 
impoundment resolution introduced with respect to a proposed 
deferral of budget authority shall be referred to the 
appropriate committee of the House of Representatives or the 
Senate, as the case may be.
    (b) Discharge of Committee.--
            (1) If the committee to which a rescission bill or 
        impoundment resolution has been referred has not 
        reported it at the end of 25 calendar days of 
        continuous session of the Congress after its 
        introduction, it is in order to move either to 
        discharge the committee from further consideration of 
        the bill or resolution or to discharge the committee 
        from further consideration of any other rescission bill 
        with respect to the same special message or impoundment 
        resolution with respect to the same proposed deferral, 
        as the case may be, which has been referred to the 
        committee.
            (2) A motion to discharge may be made only by an 
        individual favoring the bill or resolution, may be made 
        only if supported by one-fifth of the Members of the 
        House involved (a quorum being present), and is highly 
        privileged in the House and privileged in the Senate 
        (except that it may not be made after the committee has 
        reported a bill or resolution with respect to the same 
        special message or the same proposed deferral, as the 
        case may be); and debate thereon shall be limited to 
        not more than 1 hour, the time to be divided in the 
        House equally between those favoring and those opposing 
        the bill or resolution, and to be divided in the Senate 
        equally between, and controlled by, the majority leader 
        and the minority leader or their designees. An 
        amendment to the motion is not in order, and it is not 
        in order to move to reconsider the vote by which the 
        motion is agreed to or disagreed to.
    (c) Floor Consideration in the House.--
            (1) When the committee of the House of 
        Representatives has reported, or has been discharged 
        from further consideration of a rescission bill or 
        impoundment resolution, it shall at any time thereafter 
        be in order (even though a previous motion to the same 
        effect has been disagreed to) to move to proceed to the 
        consideration of the bill or resolution. The motion 
        shall be highly privileged and not debatable. An 
        amendment to the motion shall not be in order, nor 
        shall it be in order to move to reconsider the vote by 
        which the motion is agreed to or disagreed to.
            (2) Debate on a rescission bill or impoundment 
        resolution shall be limited to not more than 2 hours, 
        which shall be divided equally between those favoring 
        and those opposing the bill or resolution. A motion 
        further to limit debate shall not be debatable. In the 
        case of an impoundment resolution, no amendment to, or 
        motion to recommit, the resolution shall be in order. 
        It shall not be in order to move to reconsider the vote 
        by which a rescission bill or impoundment resolution is 
        agreed to or disagreed to.
            (3) Motions to postpone, made with respect to the 
        consideration of a rescission bill or impoundment 
        resolution, and motions to proceed to the consideration 
        of other business, shall be decided without debate.
            (4) All appeals from the decisions of the Chair 
        relating to the application of the Rules of the House 
        of Representatives to the procedure relating to any 
        rescission bill or impoundment resolution shall be 
        decided without debate.
            (5) Except to the extent specifically provided in 
        the preceding provisions of this subsection, 
        consideration of any rescission bill or impoundment 
        resolution and amendments thereto (or any conference 
        report thereon) shall be governed by the Rules of the 
        House of Representatives applicable to other bills and 
        resolutions, amendments, and conference reports in 
        similar circumstances.
    (d) Floor Consideration in the Senate.--
            (1) Debate in the Senate on any rescission bill or 
        impoundment resolution, and all amendments thereto (in 
        the case of a rescission bill) and debatable motions 
        and appeals in connection therewith, shall be limited 
        to not more than 10 hours. The time shall be equally 
        divided between, and controlled by, the majority leader 
        and the minority leader or their designees.
            (2) Debate in the Senate on any amendment to a 
        rescission bill shall be limited to 2 hours, to be 
        equally divided between, and controlled by, the mover 
        and the manager of the bill. Debate on any amendment to 
        an amendment, to such a bill, and debate on any 
        debatable motion or appeal in connection with such a 
        bill or an impoundment resolution shall be limited to 1 
        hour, to be equally divided between, and controlled by, 
        the mover and the manager of the bill or resolution, 
        except that in the event the manager of the bill or 
        resolution is in favor in any such amendment, motion, 
        or appeal, the time in opposition thereto, shall be 
        controlled by the minority leader or his designee. No 
        amendment that is not germane to the provisions of a 
        rescission bill shall be received. Such leaders, or 
        either of them, may, from the time under their control 
        on the passage of a rescission bill or impoundment 
        resolution, allot additional time to any Senator during 
        the consideration of any amendment, debatable motion, 
        or appeal.
            (3) A motion to further limit debate is not 
        debatable. In the case of a rescission bill, a motion 
        to recommit (except a motion to recommit with 
        instructions to report back within a specified number 
        of days, not to exceed 3, not counting any day on which 
        the Senate is not in session) is not in order. Debate 
        on any such motion to recommit shall be limited to one 
        hour, to be equally divided between, and controlled by, 
        the mover and the manager of the concurrent resolution. 
        In the case of an impoundment resolution, no amendment 
        or motion to recommit is in order.
            (4) The conference report on any rescission bill 
        shall be in order in the Senate at any time after the 
        third day (excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and legal 
        holidays) following the day on which such a conference 
        report is reported and is available to Members of the 
        Senate. A motion to proceed to the consideration of the 
        conference report may be made even though a previous 
        motion to the same effect has been disagreed to.
            (5) During the consideration in the Senate of the 
        conference report on any rescission bill, debate shall 
        be limited to 2 hours, to be equally divided between, 
        and controlled by, the majority leader and minority 
        leader or their designees. Debate on any debatable 
        motion or appeal related to the conference report shall 
        be limited to 30 minutes, to be equally divided 
        between, and controlled by, the mover and the manager 
        of the conference report.
            (6) Should the conference report be defeated, 
        debate on any request for a new conference and the 
        appointment of conferees shall be limited to one hour, 
        to be equally divided, between, and controlled by, the 
        manager of the conference report and the minority 
        leader or his designee, and should any motion be made 
        to instruct the conferees before the conferees are 
        named, debate on such motion shall be limited to 30 
        minutes, to be equally divided between, and controlled 
        by, the mover and the manager of the conference report. 
        Debate on any amendment to any such instructions shall 
        be limited to 20 minutes, to be equally divided 
        between, and controlled by the mover and the manager of 
        the conference report. In all cases when the manager of 
        the conference report is in favor of any motion, 
        appeal, or amendment, the time in opposition shall be 
        under the control of the minority leader or his 
        designee.
            (7) In any case in which there are amendments in 
        disagreement, time on each amendment shall be limited 
        to 30 minutes, to be equally divided between, and 
        controlled by, the manager of the conference report and 
        the minority leader or his designee. No amendment that 
        is not germane to the provisions of such amendments 
        shall be received.

                                 NOTE:

                  CONSTITUTIONALITY OF LINE ITEM VETO

            The United States Supreme Court, in Clinton v. City 
        of New York, U.S. Dist. Col. 1998, 118 S.Ct. 2091, 141 
        L.Ed.2d 393, found that the Line Item Veto Act of 1996, 
        Pub.L. 104-130, April 9, 1996, 110 Stat. 1200, which is 
        part C of title X of the Congressional Budget and 
        Impoundment Control Act of 1974, was unconstitutional 
        as a violation of the Presentment Clause of the United 
        States Constitution (Art. I, Sec. 7, cl. 2).

                         Part C--Line Item Veto

                        LINE ITEM VETO AUTHORITY

    Sec. 1021. [2 U.S.C. 691] (a) In General.--Notwithstanding 
the provisions of parts A and B, and subject to the provisions 
of this part, the President may, with respect to any bill or 
joint resolution that has been signed into law pursuant to 
Article I, section 7, of the Constitution of the United States, 
cancel in whole--
            (1) any dollar amount of discretionary budget 
        authority;
            (2) any item of new direct spending; or
            (3) any limited tax benefit;
if the President--
            (A) determines that such cancellation will--
                    (i) reduce the Federal budget deficit;
                    (ii) not impair any essential Government 
                functions; and
                    (iii) not harm the national interest; and
            (B) notifies the Congress of such cancellation by 
        transmitting a special message, in accordance with 
        section 1022, within five calendar days (excluding 
        Sundays) after the enactment of the law providing the 
        dollar amount of discretionary budget authority, item 
        of new direct spending, or limited tax benefit that was 
        canceled.
    (b) Identification of Cancellations.--In identifying dollar 
amounts of discretionary budget authority, items of new direct 
spending, and limited tax benefits for cancellation, the 
President shall--
            (1) consider the legislative history, construction, 
        and purposes of the law which contains such dollar 
        amounts, items, or benefits;
            (2) consider any specific sources of information 
        referenced in such law or, in the absence of specific 
        sources of information, the best available information; 
        and
            (3) use the definitions contained in section 1026 
        in applying this part to the specific provisions of 
        such law.
    (c) Exception for Disapproval Bills.--The authority granted 
by subsection (a) shall not apply to any dollar amount of 
discretionary budget authority, item of new direct spending, or 
limited tax benefit contained in any law that is a disapproval 
bill as defined in section 1026.

                            SPECIAL MESSAGES

    Sec. 1022. [2 U.S.C. 691a] (a) In General.--For each law 
from which a cancellation has been made under this part, the 
President shall transmit a single special message to the 
Congress.
    (b) Contents.--
            (1) The special message shall specify--
                    (A) the dollar amount of discretionary 
                budget authority, item of new direct spending, 
                or limited tax benefit which has been canceled, 
                and provide a corresponding reference number 
                for each cancellation;
                    (B) the determinations required under 
                section 1021(a), together with any supporting 
                material;
                    (C) the reasons for the cancellation;
                    (D) to the maximum extent practicable, the 
                estimated fiscal, economic, and budgetary 
                effect of the cancellation;
                    (E) all facts, circumstances and 
                considerations relating to or bearing upon the 
                cancellation, and to the maximum extent 
                practicable, the estimated effect of the 
                cancellation upon the objects, purposes and 
                programs for which the canceled authority was 
                provided; and
                    (F) include the adjustments that will be 
                made pursuant to section 1024 to the 
                discretionary spending limits under section 
                251(c) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency 
                Deficit Control Act of 1985 and an evaluation 
                of the effects of those adjustments upon the 
                sequestration procedures of section 251 of the 
                Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control 
                Act of 1985.
            (2) In the case of a cancellation of any dollar 
        amount of discretionary budget authority or item of new 
        direct spending, the special message shall also 
        include, if applicable--
                    (A) any account, department, or 
                establishment of the Government for which such 
                budget authority was to have been available for 
                obligation and the specific project or 
                governmental functions involved;

                    (C) the total number of cancellations 
                imposed during the current session of Congress 
                on States and congressional districts 
                identified in subparagraph (B).
    (c) Transmission of Special Messages to House and Senate.--
            (1) The President shall transmit to the Congress 
        each special message under this part within five 
        calendar days (excluding Sundays) after enactment of 
        the law to which the cancellation applies. Each special 
        message shall be transmitted to the House of 
        Representatives and the Senate on the same calendar 
        day. Such special message shall be delivered to the 
        Clerk of the House of Representatives if the House is 
        not in session, and to the Secretary of the Senate if 
        the Senate is not in session.

message is enacted into law, then all cancellations disapproved 
in that law shall be null and void and any such dollar amount 
of discretionary budget authority, item of new direct spending, 
or limited tax benefit shall be effective as of the original 
date provided in the law to which the cancellation applied.
    (b) Commensurate Reductions in Discretionary Budget 
Authority.--Upon the cancellation of a dollar amount of 
discretionary budget authority under subsection (a), the total 
appropriation for each relevant account of which that dollar 
amount is a part shall be simultaneously reduced by the dollar 
amount of that cancellation.

                    (A) reflect the reduction that results from 
                such cancellation in the estimates required by 
                section 251(a)(7) of the Balanced Budget and 
                Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 in 
                accordance with that Act, including an estimate 
                of the reduction of the budget authority and

                reduction of budget authority for each outyear; 
                and
                    (B) include a reduction to the 
                discretionary spending limits for budget 
                authority and outlays in accordance with the 
                Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control 
                Act of 1985 for each applicable fiscal year set 
                forth in section 251(c) of the Balanced Budget 
                and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 by 
                amounts equal to the amounts for each fiscal

        OMB shall, for each item of new direct spending or 
        limited tax benefit canceled from a law under section 
        1021(a), estimate the deficit decrease caused by the 
        cancellation of such item or benefit in that law and 
        include such estimate as a separate entry in the report 
        prepared pursuant to section 252(d) of the Balanced 
        Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985.
            (B) OMB shall not include any change in the deficit

        part in the estimates and reports required by sections

as part of the next sequester report required by section 254 of 
the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985.
    (c) Exception.--Subsection (b) shall not apply to a 
cancellation if a disapproval bill or other law that 
disapproves that cancellation is enacted into law prior to 10 
calendar days (excluding Sundays) after the expiration of the 
time period set forth in section 1025(b)(1).
    (d) Congressional Budget Office Estimates.--As soon as 
practicable after the President makes a cancellation from a law

reduction of the budget authority and the reduction in outlays 
flowing from such reduction of budget authority for each 
outyear.

       EXPEDITED CONGRESSIONAL CONSIDERATION OF DISAPPROVAL BILLS

    Sec. 1025. [2 U.S.C. 691d] (a) Receipt and Referral of 
Special Message.--Each special message transmitted under this 
part shall be referred to the Committee on the Budget and the 
appropriate committee or committees of the Senate and the 
Committee on the Budget and the appropriate committee or 
committees of the House of Representatives. Each such message 
shall be printed as a document of the House of Representatives.
    (b) Time Period for Expedited Procedures.--
            (1) There shall be a congressional review period of 
        30 calendar days of session, beginning on the first 
        calendar day of session after the date on which the 
        special message is received in the House of 
        Representatives and the Senate, during which the 
        procedures contained in this section shall apply to 
        both Houses of Congress.
            (2) In the House of Representatives the procedures 
        set forth in this section shall not apply after the end 
        of the period described in paragraph (1).
            (3) If Congress adjourns at the end of a Congress 
        prior to the expiration of the period described in 
        paragraph (1) and a disapproval bill was then pending 
        in either House of Congress or a committee thereof 
        (including a conference committee of the two Houses of 
        Congress), or was pending before the President, a 
        disapproval bill for the same special message may be 
        introduced within the first five calendar days of 
        session of the next Congress and shall be treated as a 
        disapproval bill under this part, and the time period 
        described in paragraph (1) shall commence on the day of 
        introduction of that disapproval bill.
    (c) Introduction of Disapproval Bills.--(1) In order for a 
disapproval bill to be considered under the procedures set 
forth in this section, the bill must meet the definition of a 
disapproval bill and must be introduced no later than the fifth 
calendar day of session following the beginning of the period 
described in subsection (b)(1).
    (2) In the case of a disapproval bill introduced in the 
House of Representatives, such bill shall include in the first 
blank space referred to in section 1026(6)(C) a list of the 
reference numbers for all cancellations made by the President 
in the special message to which such disapproval bill relates.
    (d) Consideration in the House of Representatives.--(1) Any 
committee of the House of Representatives to which a 
disapproval bill is referred shall report it without amendment, 
and with or without recommendation, not later than the seventh 
calendar day of session after the date of its introduction. If 
any committee fails to report the bill within that period, it 
is in order to move that the House discharge the committee from 
further consideration of the bill, except that such a motion 
may not be made after the committee has reported a disapproval 
bill with respect to the same special message. A motion to 
discharge may be made only by a Member favoring the bill (but 
only at a time or place designated by the Speaker in the 
legislative schedule of the day after the calendar day on which 
the Member offering the motion announces to the House his 
intention to do so and the form of the motion). The motion is 
highly privileged. Debate thereon shall be limited to not more 
than one hour, the time to be divided in the House equally 
between a proponent and an opponent. The previous question 
shall be considered as ordered on the motion to its adoption 
without intervening motion. A motion to reconsider the vote by 
which the motion is agreed to or disagreed to shall not be in 
order.
    (2) After a disapproval bill is reported or a committee has 
been discharged from further consideration, it is in order to 
move that the House resolve into the Committee of the Whole 
House on the State of the Union for consideration of the bill. 
If reported and the report has been available for at least one 
calendar day, all points of order against the bill and against 
consideration of the bill are waived. If discharged, all points 
of order against the bill and against consideration of the bill 
are waived. The motion is highly privileged. A motion to 
reconsider the vote by which the motion is agreed to or 
disagreed to shall not be in order. During consideration of the 
bill in the Committee of the Whole, the first reading of the 
bill shall be dispensed with. General debate shall proceed, 
shall be confined to the bill, and shall not exceed one hour 
equally divided and controlled by a proponent and an opponent 
of the bill. The bill shall be considered as read for amendment 
under the five-minute rule. Only one motion to rise shall be in 
order, except if offered by the manager. No amendment to the 
bill is in order, except any Member if supported by 49 other 
Members (a quorum being present) may offer an amendment 
striking the reference number or numbers of a cancellation or 
cancellations from the bill. Consideration of the bill for 
amendment shall not exceed one hour excluding time for recorded 
votes and quorum calls. No amendment shall be subject to 
further amendment, except pro forma amendments for the purposes 
of debate only. At the conclusion of the consideration of the 
bill for amendment, the Committee shall rise and report the 
bill to the House with such amendments as may have been 
adopted. The previous question shall be considered as ordered 
on the bill and amendments thereto to final passage without 
intervening motion. A motion to reconsider the vote on passage 
of the bill shall not be in order.
    (3) Appeals from decisions of the Chair regarding 
application of the rules of the House of Representatives to the 
procedure relating to a disapproval bill shall be decided 
without debate.
    (4) It shall not be in order to consider under this 
subsection more than one disapproval bill for the same special 
message except for consideration of a similar Senate bill 
(unless the House has already rejected a disapproval bill for 
the same special message) or more than one motion to discharge 
described in paragraph (1) with respect to a disapproval bill 
for that special message.
    (e) Consideration in the Senate.--
            (1) Referral and reporting.--Any disapproval bill 
        introduced in the Senate shall be referred to the 
        appropriate committee or committees. A committee to 
        which a disapproval bill has been referred shall report 
        the bill not later than the seventh day of session 
        following the date of introduction of that bill. If any 
        committee fails to report the bill within that period, 
        that committee shall be automatically discharged from 
        further consideration of the bill and the bill shall be 
        placed on the Calendar.
            (2) Disapproval bill from house.--When the Senate 
        receives from the House of Representatives a 
        disapproval bill, such bill shall not be referred to 
        committee and shall be placed on the Calendar.
            (3) Consideration of single disapproval bill.--
        After the Senate has proceeded to the consideration of 
        a disapproval bill for a special message, then no other 
        disapproval bill originating in that same House 
        relating to that same message shall be subject to the 
        procedures set forth in this subsection.
            (4) Amendments.--
                    (A) Amendments in order.--The only 
                amendments in order to a disapproval bill are--
                            (i) an amendment that strikes the 
                        reference number of a cancellation from 
                        the disapproval bill; and
                            (ii) an amendment that only inserts 
                        the reference number of a cancellation 
                        included in the special message to 
                        which the disapproval bill relates that 
                        is not already contained in such bill.
                    (B) Waiver or appeal.--An affirmative vote 
                of three-fifths of the Senators, duly chosen 
                and sworn, shall be required in the Senate--
                            (i) to waive or suspend this 
                        paragraph; or
                            (ii) to sustain an appeal of the 
                        ruling of the Chair on a point of order 
                        raised under this paragraph.
            (5) Motion nondebatable.--A motion to proceed to 
        consideration of a disapproval bill under this 
        subsection shall not be debatable. It shall not be in 
        order to move to reconsider the vote by which the 
        motion to proceed was adopted or rejected, although 
        subsequent motions to proceed may be made under this 
        paragraph.
            (6) Limit on consideration.--(A) After no more than 
        10 hours of consideration of a disapproval bill, the 
        Senate shall proceed, without intervening action or 
        debate (except as permitted under paragraph (9)), to 
        vote on the final disposition thereof to the exclusion 
        of all amendments not then pending and to the exclusion 
        of all motions, except a motion to reconsider or to 
        table.
            (B) A single motion to extend the time for 
        consideration under subparagraph (A) for no more than 
        an additional five hours is in order prior to the 
        expiration of such time and shall be decided without 
        debate.
            (C) The time for debate on the disapproval bill 
        shall be equally divided between the Majority Leader 
        and the Minority Leader or their designees.
            (7) Debate on amendments.--Debate on any amendment 
        to a disapproval bill shall be limited to one hour, 
        equally divided and controlled by the Senator proposing 
        the amendment and the majority manager, unless the 
        majority manager is in favor of the amendment, in which 
        case the minority manager shall be in control of the 
        time in opposition.
            (8) No motion to recommit.--A motion to recommit a 
        disapproval bill shall not be in order.
            (9) Disposition of senate disapproval bill.--If the 
        Senate has read for the third time a disapproval bill 
        that originated in the Senate, then it shall be in 
        order at any time thereafter to move to proceed to the 
        consideration of a disapproval bill for the same 
        special message received from the House of 
        Representatives and placed on the Calendar pursuant to 
        paragraph (2), strike all after the enacting clause, 
        substitute the text of the Senate disapproval bill, 
        agree to the Senate amendment, and vote on final 
        disposition of the House disapproval bill, all without 
        any intervening action or debate.
            (10) Consideration of house message.--Consideration 
        in the Senate of all motions, amendments, or appeals 
        necessary to dispose of a message from the House of 
        Representatives on a disapproval bill shall be limited 
        to not more than four hours. Debate on each motion or 
        amendment shall be limited to 30 minutes. Debate on any 
        appeal or point of order that is submitted in 
        connection with the disposition of the House message 
        shall be limited to 20 minutes. Any time for debate 
        shall be equally divided and controlled by the 
        proponent and the majority manager, unless the majority 
        manager is a proponent of the motion, amendment, 
        appeal, or point of order, in which case the minority 
        manager shall be in control of the time in opposition.
    (f) Consideration in Conference.--
            (1) Convening of conference.--In the case of 
        disagreement between the two Houses of Congress with 
        respect to a disapproval bill passed by both Houses, 
        conferees should be promptly appointed and a conference 
        promptly convened, if necessary.
            (2) House consideration.--(A) Notwithstanding any 
        other rule of the House of Representatives, it shall be 
        in order to consider the report of a committee of 
        conference relating to a disapproval bill provided such 
        report has been available for one calendar day 
        (excluding Saturdays, Sundays, or legal holidays, 
        unless the House is in session on such a day) and the 
        accompanying statement shall have been filed in the 
        House.
            (B) Debate in the House of Representatives on the 
        conference report and any amendments in disagreement on 
        any disapproval bill shall each be limited to not more 
        than one hour equally divided and controlled by a 
        proponent and an opponent. A motion to further limit 
        debate is not debatable. A motion to recommit the 
        conference report is not in order, and it is not in 
        order to move to reconsider the vote by which the 
        conference report is agreed to or disagreed to.
            (3) Senate consideration.--Consideration in the 
        Senate of the conference report and any amendments in 
        disagreement on a disapproval bill shall be limited to 
        not more than four hours equally divided and controlled 
        by the Majority Leader and the Minority Leader or their 
        designees. A motion to recommit the conference report 
        is not in order.
            (4) Limits on scope.--(A) When a disagreement to an 
        amendment in the nature of a substitute has been 
        referred to a conference, the conferees shall report 
        those cancellations that were included in both the bill 
        and the amendment, and may report a cancellation 
        included in either the bill or the amendment, but shall 
        not include any other matter.
            (B) When a disagreement on an amendment or 
        amendments of one House to the disapproval bill of the 
        other House has been referred to a committee of 
        conference, the conferees shall report those 
        cancellations upon which both Houses agree and may 
        report any or all of those cancellations upon which 
        there is disagreement, but shall not include any other 
        matter.

                outlays flowing therefrom) for the prevention 
                or mitigation of, or response to, loss of life 
                or property, or a threat to national security; 
                and
                    (B) is unanticipated.
            (21) The term ``unanticipated'' means that the 
        underlying situation is--
                    (A) sudden, which means quickly coming into 
                being or not building up over time;
                    (B) urgent, which means a pressing and 
                compelling need requiring immediate action;
                    (C) unforeseen, which means not predicted 
                or anticipated as an emerging need; and
                    (D) temporary, which means not of a 
                permanent duration.

SEC. 251. [2 U.S.C. 901] ENFORCING DISCRETIONARY SPENDING LIMITS.

    (a) Enforcement.--
            (1) Sequestration.--Within 15 calendar days after 
        Congress adjourns to end a session there shall be a 
        sequestration to eliminate a budget-year breach, if 
        any, within any category.
            (2) Eliminating a breach.--Each non-exempt account 
        within a category shall be reduced by a dollar amount 
        calculated by multiplying the enacted level of 
        sequestrable budgetary resources in that account at 
        that time by the uniform percentage necessary to 
        eliminate a breach within that category.
            (3) Military personnel.--If the President uses the 
        authority to exempt any personnel account from 
        sequestration under section 255(f), each account within 
        subfunctional category 051 (other than those military 
        personnel accounts for which the authority provided 
        under section 255(f) has been exercised) shall be 
        further reduced by a dollar amount calculated by 
        multiplying the enacted level of non-exempt budgetary 
        resources in that account at that time by the uniform 
        percentage necessary to offset the total dollar amount 
        by which outlays are not reduced in military personnel 
        accounts by reason of the use of such authority.
            (4) Part-year appropriations.--If, on the date 
        specified in paragraph (1), there is in effect an Act 
        making or continuing appropriations for part of a 
        fiscal year for any budget account, then the dollar 
        sequestration calculated for that account under 
        paragraphs (2) and (3) shall be subtracted from--
                    (A) the annualized amount otherwise 
                available by law in that account under that or 
                a subsequent part-year appropriation; and
                    (B) when a full-year appropriation for that 
                account is enacted, from the amount otherwise 
                provided by the full-year appropriation for 
                that account.
            (5) Look-back.--If, after June 30, an appropriation 
        for the fiscal year in progress is enacted that causes 
        a breach within a category for that year (after taking 
        into account any sequestration of amounts within that 
        category), the discretionary spending limits for that 
        category for the next fiscal year shall be reduced by 
        the amount or amounts of that breach.
            (6) Within-session sequestration.--If an 
        appropriation for a fiscal year in progress is enacted 
        (after Congress adjourns to end the session for that 
        budget year and before July 1 of that fiscal year) that 
        causes a breach within a category for that year (after 
        taking into account any prior sequestration of amounts 
        within that category), 15 days later there shall be a 
        sequestration to eliminate that breach within that 
        category following the procedures set forth in 
        paragraphs (2) through (4).
            (7) Estimates.--
                    (A) CBO estimates.--As soon as practicable 
                after Congress completes action on any 
                discretionary appropriation, CBO, after 
                consultation with the Committees on the Budget 
                of the House of Representatives and the Senate, 
                shall provide OMB with an estimate of the 
                amount of discretionary new budget authority 
                and outlays for the current year, if any, and 
                the budget year provided by that legislation.
                    (B) OMB estimates and explanation of 
                differences.--Not later than 7 calendar days 
                (excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and legal 
                holidays) after the date of enactment of any 
                discretionary appropriation, OMB shall transmit 
                a report to the House of Representatives and to 
                the Senate containing the CBO estimate of that 
                legislation, an OMB estimate of the amount of 
                discretionary new budget authority and outlays 
                for the current year, if any, and the budget 
                year provided by that legislation, and an 
                explanation of any difference between the 2 
                estimates. If during the preparation of the 
                report OMB determines that there is a 
                significant difference between OMB and CBO, OMB 
                shall consult with the Committees on the Budget 
                of the House of Representatives and the Senate 
                regarding that difference and that consultation 
                shall include, to the extent practicable, 
                written communication to those committees that 
                affords such committees the opportunity to 
                comment before the issuance of the report.
                    (C) Assumptions and guidelines.--OMB 
                estimates under this paragraph shall be made 
                using current economic and technical 
                assumptions. OMB shall use the OMB estimates 
                transmitted to the Congress under this 
                paragraph. OMB and CBO shall prepare estimates 
                under this paragraph in conformance with 
                scorekeeping guidelines determined after 
                consultation among the Committees on the Budget 
                of the House of Representatives and the Senate, 
                CBO, and OMB.
                    (D) Annual appropriations.--For purposes of 
                this paragraph, amounts provided by annual 
                appropriations shall include any discretionary 
                appropriations for the current year, if any, 
                and the budget year in accounts for which 
                funding is provided in that legislation that 
                result from previously enacted legislation.
    (b) Adjustments to Discretionary Spending Limits.--
            (1) Concepts and definitions.--When the President 
        submits the budget under section 1105 of title 31, 
        United States Code, OMB shall calculate and the budget 
        shall include adjustments to discretionary spending 
        limits (and those limits as cumulatively adjusted) for 
        the budget year and each outyear to reflect changes in 
        concepts and definitions. Such changes shall equal the 
        baseline levels of new budget authority and outlays 
        using up-to-date concepts and definitions, minus those 
        levels using the concepts and definitions in effect 
        before such changes. Such changes may only be made 
        after consultation with the Committees on 
        Appropriations and the Budget of the House of 
        Representatives and the Senate, and that consultation 
        shall include written communication to such committees 
        that affords such committees the opportunity to comment 
        before official action is taken with respect to such 
        changes.
            (2) Sequestration reports.--When OMB submits a 
        sequestration report under section 254(e), (f), or (g) 
        for a fiscal year, OMB shall calculate, and the 
        sequestration report and subsequent budgets submitted 
        by the President under section 1105(a) of title 31, 
        United States Code, shall include adjustments to 
        discretionary spending limits (and those limits as 
        adjusted) for the fiscal year and each succeeding year, 
        as follows:
                    (A) Emergency appropriations; overseas 
                contingency operations/global war on 
                terrorism.--If, for any fiscal year, 
                appropriations for discretionary accounts are 
                enacted that--
                            (i) the Congress designates as 
                        emergency requirements in statute on an 
                        account by account basis and the 
                        President subsequently so designates, 
                        or
                            (ii) the Congress designates for 
                        Overseas Contingency Operations/Global 
                        War on Terrorism in statute on an 
                        account by account basis and the 
                        President subsequently so designates,
                the adjustment shall be the total of such 
                appropriations in discretionary accounts 
                designated as emergency requirements or for 
                Overseas Contingency Operations/Global War on 
                Terrorism, as applicable.
                    (B) Continuing disability reviews and 
                redeterminations.--(i) If a bill or joint 
                resolution making appropriations for a fiscal 
                year is enacted that specifies an amount for 
                continuing disability reviews under titles II 
                and XVI of the Social Security Act and for the 
                cost associated with conducting 
                redeterminations of eligibility under title XVI 
                of the Social Security Act, then the 
                adjustments for that fiscal year shall be the 
                additional new budget authority provided in 
                that Act for such expenses for that fiscal 
                year, but shall not exceed--

                            (VII) for fiscal year 2018, 
                        $1,309,000,000 in additional new budget 
                        authority;

                        Administration.
                    (C) Health care fraud and abuse control.--
                (i) If a bill or joint resolution making

                        $475,000,000 in additional new budget

                    (D) Disaster funding.--
                            (i) If, for fiscal years 2012 
                        through 2021, appropriations for 
                        discretionary accounts are enacted that 
                        Congress designates as being for 
                        disaster relief in statute, the

                                excluding the highest and 
                                lowest years; and

                                designated as being for 
                                disaster relief for the

                                than the average as calculated 
                                in subclause (I) for that 
                                fiscal year, that is the 
                                difference between the enacted

                                adjustment as calculated in 
                                such subclause for that fiscal 
                                year.

SEC. 251A. [2 U.S.C. 901A] ENFORCEMENT OF BUDGET GOAL.

    Discretionary appropriations and direct spending accounts 
shall be reduced in accordance with this section as follows:
            (1) Calculation of total deficit reduction.--OMB 
        shall calculate the amount of the deficit reduction 
        required by this section for each of fiscal years 2013 
        through 2021 by--
                    (A) starting with $1,200,000,000,000;
                    (B) subtracting the amount of deficit 
                reduction achieved by the enactment of a joint 
                committee bill, as provided in section 
                401(b)(3)(B)(i)(II) of the Budget Control Act 
                of 2011;
                    (C) reducing the difference by 18 percent 
                to account for debt service;
                    (D) dividing the result by 9; and
                    (E) for fiscal year 2013, reducing the 
                amount calculated under subparagraphs (A) 
                through (D) by $24,000,000,000.
            (2) Allocation to functions.--On March 1, 2013, for 
        fiscal year 2013, and in its sequestration preview 
        report for fiscal years 2014 through 2021 pursuant to 
        section 254(c), OMB shall allocate half of the total 
        reduction calculated pursuant to paragraph (1) for that 
        year to discretionary appropriations and direct 
        spending accounts within function 050 (defense 
        function) and half to accounts in all other functions 
        (nondefense functions).
            (3) Defense function reduction.--OMB shall 
        calculate the reductions to discretionary 
        appropriations and direct spending for each of fiscal 
        years 2013 through 2021 for defense function spending 
        as follows:
                    (A) Discretionary.--OMB shall calculate the 
                reduction to discretionary appropriations by--
                            (i) taking the total reduction for 
                        the defense function allocated for that 
                        year under paragraph (2);
                            (ii) multiplying by the 
                        discretionary spending limit for the 
                        revised security category for that 
                        year; and
                            (iii) dividing by the sum of the 
                        discretionary spending limit for the 
                        security category and OMB's baseline 
                        estimate of nonexempt outlays for 
                        direct spending programs within the 
                        defense function for that year.
                    (B) Direct spending.--OMB shall calculate 
                the reduction to direct spending by taking the 
                total reduction for the defense function 
                required for that year under paragraph (2) and 
                subtracting the discretionary reduction 
                calculated pursuant to subparagraph (A).
            (4) Nondefense function reduction.--OMB shall 
        calculate the reduction to discretionary appropriations 
        and to direct spending for each of fiscal years 2013 
        through 2021 for programs in nondefense functions as 
        follows:
                    (A) Discretionary.--OMB shall calculate the 
                reduction to discretionary appropriations by--
                            (i) taking the total reduction for 
                        nondefense functions allocated for that 
                        year under paragraph (2);
                            (ii) multiplying by the 
                        discretionary spending limit for the 
                        revised nonsecurity category for that 
                        year; and
                            (iii) dividing by the sum of the 
                        discretionary spending limit for the 
                        revised nonsecurity category and OMB's 
                        baseline estimate of nonexempt outlays 
                        for direct spending programs in 
                        nondefense functions for that year.
                    (B) Direct spending.--OMB shall calculate 
                the reduction to direct spending programs by 
                taking the total reduction for nondefense 
                functions required for that year under 
                paragraph (2) and subtracting the discretionary 
                reduction calculated pursuant to subparagraph 
                (A).
            (C) Notwithstanding the 2 percent limit specified 
        in subparagraph (A) for payments for the Medicare 
        programs specified in section 256(d), the sequestration 
        order of the President under such subparagraph for 
        fiscal year 2023 shall be applied to such payments so 
        that--
                    (i) with respect to the first 6 months in 
                which such order is effective for such fiscal 
                year, the payment reduction shall be 2.90 
                percent; and
                    (ii) with respect to the second 6 months in 
                which such order is so effective for such 
                fiscal year, the payment reduction shall be 
                1.11 percent.
            (5) Implementing discretionary reductions.--
                    (A) Fiscal year 2013.--On March 1, 2013, 
                for fiscal year 2013, OMB shall calculate and 
                the President shall order a sequestration, 
                effective upon issuance and under the 
                procedures set forth in section 253(f), to 
                reduce each account within the security 
                category or nonsecurity category by a dollar 
                amount calculated by multiplying the baseline 
                level of budgetary resources in that account at 
                that time by a uniform percentage necessary to 
                achieve--
                            (i) for the revised security 
                        category, an amount equal to the 
                        defense function discretionary 
                        reduction calculated pursuant to 
                        paragraph (3); and
                            (ii) for the revised nonsecurity 
                        category, an amount equal to the 
                        nondefense function discretionary 
                        reduction calculated pursuant to 
                        paragraph (4).
                    (B) Fiscal years 2014-2021.--Except as 
                provided by paragraph (10), on the date of the 
                submission of its sequestration preview report 
                for fiscal years 2014 through 2021 pursuant to 
                section 254(c) for each of fiscal years 2014 
                through 2021, OMB shall reduce the 
                discretionary spending limit--
                            (i) for the revised security 
                        category by the amount of the defense 
                        function discretionary reduction 
                        calculated pursuant to paragraph (3); 
                        and
                            (ii) for the revised nonsecurity 
                        category by the amount of the 
                        nondefense function discretionary 
                        reduction calculated pursuant to 
                        paragraph (4).
            (6) Implementing direct spending reductions.--(A) 
        On the date specified in paragraph (2) during each 
        applicable year, OMB shall prepare and the President 
        shall order a sequestration, effective upon issuance, 
        of nonexempt direct spending to achieve the direct 
        spending reduction calculated pursuant to paragraphs 
        (3) and (4). When implementing the sequestration of 
        direct spending pursuant to this paragraph, OMB shall 
        follow the procedures specified in section 6 of the 
        Statutory Pay-As-You-Go Act of 2010, the exemptions 
        specified in section 255, and the special rules 
        specified in section 256, except that the percentage 
        reduction for the Medicare programs specified in 
        section 256(d) shall not be more than 2 percent for a 
        fiscal year.
            (B) On the dates OMB issues its sequestration 
        preview reports for fiscal year 2022, for fiscal year 
        2023, and for fiscal year 2024, pursuant to section 
        254(c), the President shall order a sequestration, 
        effective upon issuance such that--
                    (i) the percentage reduction for nonexempt 
                direct spending for the defense function is the 
                same percent as the percentage reduction for 
                nonexempt direct spending for the defense 
                function for fiscal year 2021 calculated under 
                paragraph (3)(B); and
                    (ii) the percentage reduction for nonexempt 
                direct spending for nondefense functions is the 
                same percent as the percentage reduction for 
                nonexempt direct spending for nondefense 
                functions for fiscal year 2021 calculated under 
                paragraph (4)(B).
            (C) Notwithstanding the 2 percent limit specified 
        in subparagraph (A) for payments for the Medicare 
        programs specified in section 256(d), the sequestration 
        order of the President under such subparagraph for 
        fiscal year 2023 shall be applied to such payments so 
        that--
                    (i) with respect to the first 6 months in 
                which such order is effective for such fiscal 
                year, the payment reduction shall be 2.90 
                percent; and
                    (ii) with respect to the second 6 months in 
                which such order is so effective for such 
                fiscal year, the payment reduction shall be 
                1.11 percent.
            (7) Adjustment for medicare.--If the percentage 
        reduction for the Medicare programs would exceed 2 
        percent for a fiscal year in the absence of paragraph 
        (6), OMB shall increase the reduction for all other 
        discretionary appropriations and direct spending under 
        paragraph (4) by a uniform percentage to a level 
        sufficient to achieve the reduction required by 
        paragraph (4) in the non-defense function.
            (8) Implementation of reductions.--Any reductions 
        imposed under this section shall be implemented in 
        accordance with section 256(k).
            (9) Report.--On the dates specified in paragraph 
        (2), OMB shall submit a report to Congress containing 
        information about the calculations required under this 
        section, the adjusted discretionary spending limits, a 
        listing of the reductions required for each nonexempt 
        direct spending account, and any other data and 
        explanations that enhance public understanding of this 
        title and actions taken under it.
            (10) Implementing direct spending reductions for 
        fiscal years 2014 and 2015.--(A) OMB shall make the 
        calculations necessary to implement the direct spending 
        reductions calculated pursuant to paragraphs (3) and 
        (4) without regard to the amendment made to section 
        251(c) revising the discretionary spending limits for 
        fiscal years 2014 and 2015 by the Bipartisan Budget Act 
        of 2013.
            (B) Paragraph (5)(B) shall not be implemented for 
        fiscal years 2014 and 2015.

SEC. 252. [2 U.S.C. 902] ENFORCING PAY-AS-YOU-GO.

    (a) Purpose.--The purpose of this section is to assure that 
any legislation enacted before October 1, 2002, affecting 
direct spending or receipts that increases the deficit will 
trigger an offsetting sequestration.
    (b) Sequestration.--
            (1) Timing.--Not later than 15 calendar days after 
        the date Congress adjourns to end a session and on the 
        same day as a sequestration (if any) under section 251 
        or 253, there shall be a sequestration to offset the 
        amount of any net deficit increase caused by all direct 
        spending and receipts legislation enacted before 
        October 1, 2002, as calculated under paragraph (2).
            (2) Calculation of deficit increase.--OMB shall 
        calculate the amount of deficit increase or decrease by 
        adding--
                    (A) all OMB estimates for the budget year 
                of direct spending and receipts legislation 
                transmitted under subsection (d);
                    (B) the estimated amount of savings in 
                direct spending programs applicable to the 
                budget year resulting from the prior year's 
                sequestration under this section or section 
                253, if any, as published in OMB's final 
                sequestration report for that prior year; and
                    (C) any net deficit increase or decrease in 
                the current year resulting from all OMB 
                estimates for the current year of direct 
                spending and receipts legislation transmitted 
                under subsection (d) that were not reflected in 
                the final OMB sequestration report for the 
                current year.
    (c) Eliminating a Deficit Increase.--(1) The amount 
required to be sequestered in a fiscal year under subsection 
(b) shall be obtained from non-exempt direct spending accounts 
from actions taken in the following order:
            (A) First.--All reductions in automatic spending 
        increases specified in section 256(a) shall be made.
            (B) Second.--If additional reductions in direct 
        spending accounts are required to be made, the maximum 
        reductions permissible under sections 256(b) 
        (guaranteed and direct student loans) and 256(c) 
        (foster care and adoption assistance) shall be made.
            (C) Third.--(i) If additional reductions in direct 
        spending accounts are required to be made, each 
        remaining non-exempt direct spending account shall be 
        reduced by the uniform percentage necessary to make the 
        reductions in direct spending required by subsection 
        (b); except that the medicare programs specified in 
        section 256(d) shall not be reduced by more than 4 
        percent and the uniform percentage applicable to all 
        other direct spending programs under this paragraph 
        shall be increased (if necessary) to a level sufficient 
        to achieve the required reduction in direct spending.
            (ii) For purposes of determining reductions under 
        clause (i), outlay reductions (as a result of 
        sequestration of Commodity Credit Corporation commodity 
        price support contracts in the fiscal year of a 
        sequestration) that would occur in the following fiscal 
        year shall be credited as outlay reductions in the 
        fiscal year of the sequestration.
    (2) For purposes of this subsection, accounts shall be 
assumed to be at the level in the baseline.
    (d) Estimates.--
            (1) CBO estimates.--As soon as practicable after 
        Congress completes action on any direct spending or 
        receipts legislation, CBO shall provide an estimate to 
        OMB of that legislation.
            (2) OMB estimates.--Not later than 7 calendar days 
        (excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and legal holidays) 
        after the date of enactment of any direct spending or 
        receipts legislation, OMB shall transmit a report to 
        the House of Representatives and to the Senate 
        containing--
                    (A) the CBO estimate of that legislation;
                    (B) an OMB estimate of that legislation 
                using current economic and technical 
                assumptions; and
                    (C) an explanation of any difference 
                between the 2 estimates.
            (3) Significant differences.--If during the 
        preparation of the report under paragraph (2) OMB 
        determines that there is a significant difference 
        between the OMB and CBO estimates, OMB shall consult 
        with the Committees on the Budget of the House of 
        Representatives and the Senate regarding that 
        difference and that consultation, to the extent 
        practicable, shall include written communication to 
        such committees that affords such committees the 
        opportunity to comment before the issuance of that 
        report.
            (4) Scope of estimates.--The estimates under this 
        section shall include the amount of change in outlays 
        or receipts for the current year (if applicable), the 
        budget year, and each outyear excluding any amounts 
        resulting from--
                    (A) full funding of, and continuation of, 
                the deposit insurance guarantee commitment in 
                effect under current estimates; and
                    (B) emergency provisions as designated 
                under subsection (e).
            (5) Scorekeeping guidelines.--OMB and CBO, after 
        consultation with each other and the Committees on the 
        Budget of the House of Representatives and the Senate, 
        shall--
                    (A) determine common scorekeeping 
                guidelines; and
                    (B) in conformance with such guidelines, 
                prepare estimates under this section.
    (e) \21\ Emergency Legislation.--If a provision of direct 
spending or receipts legislation is enacted that the President 
designates as an emergency requirement and that the Congress so 
designates in statute, the amounts of new budget authority, 
outlays, and receipts in all fiscal years resulting from that 
provision shall be designated as an emergency requirement in 
the reports required under subsection (d). This subsection 
shall not apply to direct spending provisions to cover 
agricultural crop disaster assistance.

SEC. 253. [2 U.S.C. 903] ENFORCING DEFICIT TARGETS.

    (a) Sequestration.--Within 15 calendar days after Congress 
adjourns to end a session (other than of the One Hundred First 
Congress) and on the same day as a sequestration (if any) under 
section 251 and section 252, but after any sequestration 
required by section 251 (enforcing discretionary spending 
limits) or section 252 (enforcing pay-as-you-go), there shall 
be a sequestration to eliminate the excess deficit (if any 
remains) if it exceeds the margin.
    (b) Excess Deficit; Margin.--The excess deficit is, if 
greater than zero, the estimated deficit for the budget year, 
minus--
            (1) the maximum deficit amount for that year;
            (2) the amounts for that year designated as 
        emergency direct spending or receipts legislation under 
        section 252(e); and
            (3) for any fiscal year in which there is not a 
        full adjustment for technical and economic reestimates, 
        the deposit insurance reestimate for that year, if any, 
        calculated under subsection (h).
The ``margin'' for fiscal year 1992 or 1993 is zero and for 
fiscal year 1994 or 1995 is $15,000,000,000.
    (c) Dividing the Sequestration.--To eliminate the excess 
deficit in a budget year, half of the required outlay 
reductions shall be obtained from non-exempt defense accounts 
(accounts designated as function 050 in the President's fiscal 
year 1991 budget submission) and half from non-exempt, non-
defense accounts (all other non-exempt accounts).
    (d) Defense.--Each non-exempt defense account shall be 
reduced by a dollar amount calculated by multiplying the level 
of sequestrable budgetary resources in that account at that 
time by the uniform percentage necessary to carry out 
subsection (c), except that, if any military personnel are 
exempt, adjustments shall be made under the procedure set forth 
in section 251(a)(3).
    (e) Non-Defense.--Actions to reduce non-defense accounts 
shall be taken in the following order:
            (1) First.--All reductions in automatic spending 
        increases under section 256(a) shall be made.
            (2) Second.--If additional reductions in non-
        defense accounts are required to be made, the maximum 
        reduction permissible under sections 256(b) (guaranteed 
        student loans) and 256(c) (foster care and adoption 
        assistance) shall be made.
            (3) Third.--(A) If additional reductions in non-
        defense accounts are required to be made, each 
        remaining non-exempt, non-defense account shall be 
        reduced by the uniform percentage necessary to make the 
        reductions in non-defense outlays required by 
        subsection (c), except that--
                    (i) the medicare program specified in 
                section 256(d) shall not be reduced by more 
                than 2 percent in total including any reduction 
                of less than 2 percent made under section 252 
                or, if it has been reduced by 2 percent or more 
                under section 252, it may not be further 
                reduced under this section; and
                    (ii) the health programs set forth in 
                section 256(e) shall not be reduced by more 
                than 2 percent in total (including any 
                reduction made under section 251),
        and the uniform percent applicable to all other 
        programs under this subsection shall be increased (if 
        necessary) to a level sufficient to achieve the 
        required reduction in non-defense outlays.
            (B) For purposes of determining reductions under 
        subparagraph (A), outlay reduction (as a result of 
        sequestration of Commodity Credit Corporation commodity 
        price support contracts in the fiscal year of a 
        sequestration) that would occur in the following fiscal 
        year shall be credited as outlay reductions in the 
        fiscal year of the sequestration.
    (f) Baseline Assumptions; Part-year Appropriations.--
            (1) Budget assumptions.--For purposes of 
        subsections (b), (c), (d), and (e), accounts shall be 
        assumed to be at the level in the baseline minus any 
        reductions required to be made under sections 251 and 
        252.
            (2) Part-year appropriations.--If, on the date 
        specified in subsection (a), there is in effect an Act 
        making or continuing appropriations for part of a 
        fiscal year for any non-exempt budget account, then the 
        dollar sequestration calculated for that account under 
        subsection (d) or (e), as applicable, shall be 
        subtracted from--
                    (A) the annualized amount otherwise 
                available by law in that account under that or 
                a subsequent part-year appropriation; and
                    (B) when a full-year appropriation for that 
                account is enacted, from the amount otherwise 
                provided by the full-year appropriation; except 
                that the amount to be sequestered from that 
                account shall be reduced (but not below zero) 
                by the savings achieved by that appropriation 
                when the enacted amount is less than the 
                baseline for that account.
    (g) Adjustments to Maximum Deficit Amounts.--
            (1) Adjustments.--
                    (A) When the President submits the budget 
                for fiscal year 1992, the maximum deficit 
                amounts for fiscal years 1992, 1993, 1994, and 
                1995 shall be adjusted to reflect up-to-date 
                reestimates of economic and technical 
                assumptions and any changes in concepts or 
                definitions. When the President submits the 
                budget for fiscal year 1993, the maximum 
                deficit amounts for fiscal years 1993, 1994, 
                and 1995 shall be further adjusted to reflect 
                up-to-date reestimates of economic and 
                technical assumptions and any changes in 
                concepts or definitions.
                    (B) When submitting the budget for fiscal 
                year 1994, the President may choose to adjust 
                the maximum deficit amounts for fiscal years 
                1994 and 1995 to reflect up-to-date reestimates 
                of economic and technical assumptions. If the 
                President chooses to adjust the maximum deficit 
                amount when submitting the fiscal year 1994 
                budget, the President may choose to invoke the 
                same adjustment procedure when submitting the 
                budget for fiscal year 1995. In each case, the 
                President must choose between making no 
                adjustment or the full adjustment described in 
                paragraph (2). If the President chooses to make 
                that full adjustment, then those procedures for 
                adjusting discretionary spending limits 
                described in sections 251(b)(1)(C) and 
                251(b)(2)(E), otherwise applicable through 
                fiscal year 1993 or 1994 (as the case may be), 
                shall be deemed to apply for fiscal year 1994 
                (and 1995 if applicable).
                    (C) When the budget for fiscal year 1994 or 
                1995 is submitted and the sequestration reports 
                for those years under section 254 are made (as 
                applicable), if the President does not choose 
                to make the adjustments set forth in 
                subparagraph (B), the maximum deficit amount 
                for that fiscal year shall be adjusted by the 
                amount of the adjustment to discretionary 
                spending limits first applicable for that year 
                (if any) under section 251(b).
                    (D) For each fiscal year the adjustments 
                required to be made with the submission of the 
                President's budget for that year shall also be 
                made when OMB submits the sequestration update 
                report and the final sequestration report for 
                that year, but OMB shall continue to use the 
                economic and technical assumptions in the 
                President's budget for that year.
        Each adjustment shall be made by increasing or 
        decreasing the maximum deficit amounts set forth in 
        section 601 of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974.
            (2) Calculations of adjustments.--The required 
        increase or decrease shall be calculated as follows:
                    (A) The baseline deficit or surplus shall 
                be calculated using up-to-date economic and 
                technical assumptions, using up-to-date 
                concepts and definitions, and, in lieu of the 
                baseline levels of discretionary 
                appropriations, using the discretionary 
                spending limits set forth in section 601 of the 
                Congressional Budget Act of 1974 as adjusted 
                under section 251.
                    (B) The net deficit increase or decrease 
                caused by all direct spending and receipts 
                legislation enacted after the date of enactment 
                of this section (after adjusting for any 
                sequestration of direct spending accounts) 
                shall be calculated for each fiscal year by 
                adding--
                            (i) the estimates of direct 
                        spending and receipts legislation 
                        transmitted under section 252(d) 
                        applicable to each such fiscal year; 
                        and
                            (ii) the estimated amount of 
                        savings in direct spending programs 
                        applicable to each such fiscal year 
                        resulting from the prior year's 
                        sequestration under this section or 
                        section 252 of direct spending, if any, 
                        as contained in OMB's final 
                        sequestration report for that year.
                    (C) The amount calculated under 
                subparagraph (B) shall be subtracted from the 
                amount calculated under subparagraph (A).
                    (D) The maximum deficit amount set forth in 
                section 601 of the Congressional Budget Act of 
                1974 shall be subtracted from the amount 
                calculated under subparagraph (C).
                    (E) The amount calculated under 
                subparagraph (D) shall be the amount of the 
                adjustment required by paragraph (1).
    (h) Treatment of Deposit Insurance.--
            (1) Initial estimates.--The initial estimates of 
        the net costs of federal deposit insurance for fiscal 
        year 1994 and fiscal year 1995 (assuming full funding 
        of, and continuation of, the deposit insurance 
        guarantee commitment in effect on the date of the 
        submission of the budget for fiscal year 1993) shall be 
        set forth in that budget.
            (2) Reestimates.--For fiscal year 1994 and fiscal 
        year 1995, the amount of the reestimate of deposit 
        insurance costs shall be calculated by subtracting the 
        amount set forth under paragraph (1) for that year from 
        the current estimate of deposit insurance costs (but 
        assuming full funding of, and continuation of, the 
        deposit insurance guarantee commitment in effect on the 
        date of submission of the budget for fiscal year 1993).

        during which such notification is given, the quarter 
        preceding such notification, and the 4 quarters

        be less than zero with respect to each of any 2 
        consecutive quarters within such period; or
            (2) the most recent of the Department of Commerce's 
        advance preliminary or final reports of actual real

    (d) Special Rules for Medicare Program.--
            (1) Calculation of reduction in payment amounts.--
        To achieve the total percentage reduction in those 
        programs required by section 252 or 253, subject to 
        paragraph (2), and notwithstanding section 710 of the 
        Social Security Act, OMB shall determine, and the 
        applicable Presidential order under section 254 shall 
        implement, the percentage reduction that shall apply, 
        with respect to the health insurance programs under 
        title XVIII of the Social Security Act--
                    (A) in the case of parts A and B of such 
                title, to individual payments for services 
                furnished during the one-year period beginning 
                on the first day of the first month beginning 
                after the date the order is issued (or, if 
                later, the date specified in paragraph (4)); 
                and
                    (B) in the case of parts C and D, to 
                monthly payments under contracts under such 
                parts for the same one-year period;
        such that the reduction made in payments under that 
        order shall achieve the required total percentage 
        reduction in those payments for that period.
            (2) Uniform reduction rate; maximum permissible 
        reduction.--Reductions in payments for programs and 
        activities under such title XVIII pursuant to a 
        sequestration order under section 254 shall be at a 
        uniform rate, which shall not exceed 4 percent, across 
        all such programs and activities subject to such order.
            (3) Timing of application of reductions.--
                    (A) In general.--Except as provided in 
                subparagraph (B), if a reduction is made under 
                paragraph (1) in payment amounts pursuant to a 
                sequestration order, the reduction shall be 
                applied to payment for services furnished 
                during the effective period of the order. For 
                purposes of the previous sentence, in the case 
                of inpatient services furnished for an 
                individual, the services shall be considered to 
                be furnished on the date of the individual's 
                discharge from the inpatient facility.
                    (B) Payment on the basis of cost reporting 
                periods.--In the case in which payment for 
                services of a provider of services is made 
                under title XVIII of the Social Security Act on 
                a basis relating to the reasonable cost 
                incurred for the services during a cost 
                reporting period of the provider, if a 
                reduction is made under paragraph (1) in 
                payment amounts pursuant to a sequestration 
                order, the reduction shall be applied to 
                payment for costs for such services incurred at 
                any time during each cost reporting period of 
                the provider any part of which occurs during 
                the effective period of the order, but only 
                (for each such cost reporting period) in the 
                same proportion as the fraction of the cost 
                reporting period that occurs during the 
                effective period of the order.
            (4) Timing of subsequent sequestration order.--A 
        sequestration order required by section 252 or 253 with 
        respect to programs under such title XVIII shall not 
        take effect until the first month beginning after the 
        end of the effective period of any prior sequestration 
        order with respect to such programs, as determined in 
        accordance with paragraph (1).
            (5) No increase in beneficiary charges in 
        assignment-related cases.--If a reduction in payment 
        amounts is made under paragraph (1) for services for 
        which payment under part B of title XVIII of the Social 
        Security Act is made on the basis of an assignment 
        described in section 1842(b)(3)(B)(ii), in accordance 
        with section 1842(b)(6)(B), or under the procedure 
        described in section 1870(f)(1), of such Act, the 
        person furnishing the services shall be considered to 
        have accepted payment of the reasonable charge for the 
        services, less any reduction in payment amount made 
        pursuant to a sequestration order, as payment in full.
            (6) Sequestration disregarded in computing payment 
        amounts.--The Secretary of Health and Human Services 
        shall not take into account any reductions in payment 
        amounts which have been or may be effected under this 
        part, for purposes of computing any adjustments to 
        payment rates under such title XVIII, specifically 
        including--
                    (A) the part C growth percentage under 
                section 1853(c)(6);
                    (B) the part D annual growth rate under 
                section 1860D-2(b)(6); and
                    (C) application of risk corridors to part D 
                payment rates under section 1860D-15(e).
            (7) Exemptions from sequestration.--In addition to

        section 254, without regard to any exemption, 
        exception, limitation, or special rule which is 
        otherwise applicable with respect to such program,

        reimbursement of administrative costs incurred by such 
        State under or in connection with the unemployment 
        compensation programs specified in subsection (h)(1) 
        shall be subject to reduction or sequestration under 
        this part notwithstanding the exemption otherwise 
        granted to such programs under that subsection.
            (4) Notwithstanding any other provision of law,

    (i) Treatment of Payments and Advances Made With Respect to

        compensation by a State from its account in the 
        Unemployment Trust Fund (established by section 904(a) 
        of the Social Security Act),
            (B) any advance made to a State from the Federal 
        unemployment account (established by section 904(g) of 
        such Act) under title XII of such Act and any advance 
        appropriated to the Federal unemployment account 
        pursuant to section 1203 of such Act, and
            (C) any payment made from the Federal Employees 
        Compensation Account (as established under section 909 
        of such Act) for the purpose of carrying out chapter 85 
        of title 5, United States Code, and funds appropriated 
        or transferred to or otherwise deposited in such 
        Account,
shall not be subject to reduction.
    (2)(A) A State may reduce each weekly benefit payment made 
under the Federal-State Extended Unemployment Compensation Act 
of 1970 for any week of unemployment occurring during any 
period with respect to which payments are reduced under an 
order issued under section 254 by a percentage not to exceed 
the percentage by which the Federal payment to the State under 
section 204 of such Act is to be reduced for such week as a 
result of such order.
    (B) A reduction by a State in accordance with subparagraph 
(A) shall not be considered as a failure to fulfill the 
requirements of section 3304(a)(11) of the Internal Revenue 
Code of 1954.
    (j) Commodity Credit Corporation.--
            (1) Powers and authorities of the commodity credit 
        corporation.--This title shall not restrict the 
        Commodity Credit Corporation in the discharge of its 
        authority and responsibility as a corporation to buy 
        and sell commodities in world trade, to use the 
        proceeds as a revolving fund to meet other obligations 
        and otherwise operate as a corporation, the purpose for 
        which it was created.
            (2) Reduction in payments made under contracts.--
        (A) Loan eligibility under any contract entered into 
        with a person by the Commodity Credit Corporation prior 
        to the time an order has been issued under section 254 
        shall not be reduced by an order subsequently issued. 
        Subject to subparagraph (B), after an order is issued 
        under such section for a fiscal year, any cash payments 
        for loans or loan deficiencies made by the Commodity 
        Credit Corporation shall be subject to reduction under 
        the order.
            (B) Each loan contract entered into with producers 
        or producer cooperatives with respect to a particular 
        crop of a commodity and subject to reduction under 
        subparagraph (A) shall be reduced in accordance with 
        the same terms and conditions. If some, but not all, 
        contracts applicable to a crop of a commodity have been 
        entered into prior to the issuance of an order under 
        section 254, the order shall provide that the necessary 
        reduction in payments under contracts applicable to the 
        commodity be uniformly applied to all contracts for the 
        next succeeding crop of the commodity, under the 
        authority provided in paragraph (3).
            (3) Delayed reduction in outlays permissible.--
        Notwithstanding any other provision of this title, if 
        an order under section 254 is issued with respect to a 
        fiscal year, any reduction under the order applicable 
        to contracts described in paragraph (1) may provide for 
        reductions in outlays for the account involved to occur 
        in the fiscal year following the fiscal year to which 
        the order applies.
            (4) Uniform percentage rate of reduction and other 
        limitations.--All reductions described in paragraph (2) 
        which are required to be made in connection with an 
        order issued under section 254 with respect to a fiscal 
        year shall be made so as to ensure that outlays for 
        each program, project, activity, or account involved 
        are reduced by a percentage rate that is uniform for 
        all such programs, projects, activities, and accounts, 
        and may not be made so as to achieve a percentage rate 
        of reduction in any such item exceeding the rate 
        specified in the order.
            (5) Dairy program.--Notwithstanding any other 
        provision of this subsection, as the sole means of 
        achieving any reduction in outlays under the milk price 
        support program, the Secretary of Agriculture shall 
        provide for a reduction to be made in the price 
        received by producers for all milk produced in the 
        United States and marketed by producers for commercial 
        use. That price reduction (measured in cents per 
        hundred weight of milk marketed) shall occur under 
        section 201(d)(2)(A) of the Agricultural Act of 1949 (7 
        U.S.C. 1446(d)(2)(A)), shall begin on the day any 
        sequestration order is issued under section 254, and 
        shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the reduction 
        in outlays under the milk price support program that 
        otherwise would have been achieved by reducing payments 
        for the purchase of milk or the products of milk under 
        this subsection during the applicable fiscal year.
            (6) Certain authority not to be limited.--Nothing 
        in this joint resolution shall limit or reduce, in any 
        way, any appropriation that provides the Commodity 
        Credit Corporation with budget authority to cover the 
        Corporation's net realized losses.
    (k) Effects of Sequestration.--The effects of sequestration 
shall be as follows:
            (1) Budgetary resources sequestered from any 
        account shall be permanently cancelled, except as 
        provided in paragraph (6).
            (2) Except as otherwise provided, the same 
        percentage sequestration shall apply to all programs, 
        projects, and activities within a budget account (with 
        programs, projects, and activities as delineated in the 
        appropriation Act or accompanying report for the 
        relevant fiscal year covering that account, or for 
        accounts not included in appropriation Acts, as 
        delineated in the most recently submitted President's 
        budget).
            (3) Administrative regulations or similar actions 
        implementing a sequestration shall be made within 120 
        days of the sequestration order. To the extent that 
        formula allocations differ at different levels of 
        budgetary resources within an account, program, 
        project, or activity, the sequestration shall be 
        interpreted as producing a lower total appropriation, 
        with the remaining amount of the appropriation being 
        obligated in a manner consistent with program 
        allocation formulas in substantive law.
            (4) Except as otherwise provided, obligations in 
        sequestered accounts shall be reduced only in the 
        fiscal year in which a sequester occurs.
            (5) If an automatic spending increase is 
        sequestered, the increase (in the applicable index) 
        that was disregarded as a result of that sequestration 
        shall not be taken into account in any subsequent 
        fiscal year.
            (6) Budgetary resources sequestered in revolving, 
        trust, and special fund accounts and offsetting 
        collections sequestered in appropriation accounts shall 
        not be available for obligation during the fiscal year 
        in which the sequestration occurs, but shall be 
        available in subsequent years to the extent otherwise 
        provided in law.

SEC. 257. [2 U.S.C. 907] THE BASELINE.

    (a) In General.--For any budget year, the baseline refers 
to a projection of current-year levels of new budget authority, 
outlays, revenues, and the surplus or deficit into the budget 
year and the outyears based on laws enacted through the 
applicable date.
    (b) Direct Spending and Receipts.--For the budget year and 
each outyear, the baseline shall be calculated using the 
following assumptions:
            (1) In general.--Laws providing or creating direct 
        spending and receipts are assumed to operate in the 
        manner specified in those laws for each such year and 
        funding for entitlement authority is assumed to be 
        adequate to make all payments required by those laws.
            (2) Exceptions.--(A)(i) No program established by a 
        law enacted on or before the date of enactment of the 
        Balanced Budget Act of 1997 with estimated current year 
        outlays greater than $50,000,000 shall be assumed to 
        expire in the budget year or the outyears. The scoring 
        of new programs with estimated outlays greater than 
        $50,000,000 a year shall be based on scoring by the 
        Committees on Budget or OMB, as applicable. OMB, CBO, 
        and the Budget Committees shall consult on the scoring 
        of such programs where there are differences between 
        CBO and OMB.
            (ii) On the expiration of the suspension of a 
        provision of law that is suspended under section 171 of 
        Public Law 104-127 and that authorizes a program with 
        estimated fiscal year outlays that are greater than 
        $50,000,000, for purposes of clause (i), the program 
        shall be assumed to continue to operate in the same 
        manner as the program operated immediately before the 
        expiration of the suspension.
            (B) The increase for veterans' compensation for a 
        fiscal year is assumed to be the same as that required 
        by law for veterans' pensions unless otherwise provided 
        by law enacted in that session.
            (C) Excise taxes dedicated to a trust fund, if 
        expiring, are assumed to be extended at current rates.
            (D) If any law expires before the budget year or 
        any outyear, then any program with estimated current 
        year outlays greater than $50,000,000 that operates 
        under that law shall be assumed to continue to operate 
        under that law as in effect immediately before its 
        expiration.
            (3) Hospital insurance trust fund.--Notwithstanding 
        any other provision of law, the receipts and 
        disbursements of the Hospital Insurance Trust Fund 
        shall be included in all calculations required by this 
        Act.
    (c) Discretionary Appropriations.--For the budget year and 
each outyear, the baseline shall be calculated using the 
following assumptions regarding all amounts other than those 
covered by subsection (b):
            (1) Inflation of current-year appropriations.--
        Budgetary resources other than unobligated balances 
        shall be at the level provided for the budget year in 
        full-year appropriation Acts. If for any account a 
        full-year appropriation has not yet been enacted, 
        budgetary resources other than unobligated balances 
        shall be at the level available in the current year, 
        adjusted sequentially and cumulatively for expiring 
        housing contracts as specified in paragraph (2), for 
        social insurance administrative expenses as specified 
        in paragraph (3), to offset pay absorption and for pay 
        annualization as specified in paragraph (4), for 
        inflation as specified in paragraph (5), and to account 
        for changes required by law in the level of agency 
        payments for personnel benefits other than pay.
            (2) Expiring housing contracts.--New budget 
        authority to renew expiring multiyear subsidized 
        housing contracts shall be adjusted to reflect the 
        difference in the number of such contracts that are 
        scheduled to expire in that fiscal year and the number 
        expiring in the current year, with the per-contract 
        renewal cost equal to the average current-year cost of 
        renewal contracts.
            (3) Social insurance administrative expenses.--
        Budgetary resources for the administrative expenses of 
        the following trust funds shall be adjusted by the 
        percentage change in the beneficiary population from 
        the current year to that fiscal year: the Federal 
        Hospital Insurance Trust Fund, the Supplementary 
        Medical Insurance Trust Fund, the Unemployment Trust 
        Fund, and the railroad retirement account.
            (4) Pay annualization; offset to pay absorption.--
        Current-year new budget authority for Federal employees 
        shall be adjusted to reflect the full 12-month costs 
        (without absorption) of any pay adjustment that 
        occurred in that fiscal year.
            (5) Inflators.--The inflator used in paragraph (1) 
        to adjust budgetary resources relating to personnel 
        shall be the percent by which the average of the Bureau 
        of Labor Statistics Employment Cost Index (wages and 
        salaries, private industry workers) for that fiscal 
        year differs from such index for the current year. The 
        inflator used in paragraph (1) to adjust all other 
        budgetary resources shall be the percent by which the 
        average of the estimated gross domestic product chain-
        type price index for that fiscal year differs from the 
        average of such estimated index for the current year.
            (6) Current-year appropriations.--If, for any 
        account, a continuing appropriation is in effect for 
        less than the entire current year, then the current-
        year amount shall be assumed to equal the amount that 
        would be available if that continuing appropriation 
        covered the entire fiscal year. If law permits the 
        transfer of budget authority among budget accounts in 
        the current year, the current-year level for an account 
        shall reflect transfers accomplished by the submission 
        of, or assumed for the current year in, the President's 
        original budget for the budget year.
    (d) Up-to-Date Concepts.--In deriving the baseline for any 
budget year or outyear, current-year amounts shall be 
calculated using the concepts and definitions that are required 
for that budget year.
    (e) Asset Sales.--Amounts realized from the sale of an 
asset shall not be included in estimates under section 251, 
252, or 253 if that sale would result in a financial cost to 
the Federal Government as determined pursuant to scorekeeping 
guidelines.

SEC. 258. [2 U.S.C. 907A] SUSPENSION IN THE EVENT OF WAR OR LOW GROWTH.

    (a) Procedures in the Event of a Low Growth Report.--
            (1) Trigger.--Whenever CBO issues a low-growth 
        report under section 254(i), the Majority Leader of the 
        House of Representatives may, and the Majority Leader 
        of the Senate shall, introduce a joint resolution (in 
        the form set forth in paragraph (2)) declaring that the 
        conditions specified in section 254(j) are met and 
        suspending the relevant provisions of this title, 
        titles III and VI of the Congressional Budget Act of 
        1974, and section 1103 of title 31, United States Code.
            (2) Form of joint resolution.--
                    (A) The matter after the resolving clause 
                in any joint resolution introduced pursuant to 
                paragraph (1) shall be as follows: ``That the 
                Congress declares that the conditions specified 
                in section 254(j) \25\ of the Balanced Budget 
                and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 are 
                met, and the implementation of the 
                Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control 
                Act of 1974, chapter 11 of title 31, United 
                States Code, and part C of the Balanced Budget 
                and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 are 
                modified as described in section 258(b) of the 
                Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control 
                Act of 1985.''.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    \25\ So in law. Probably should be section 254(i).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
                    (B) The title of the joint resolution shall 
                be ``Joint resolution suspending certain 
                provisions of law pursuant to section 258(a)(2) 
                of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit 
                Control Act of 1985.''; and the joint 
                resolution shall not contain any preamble.
            (3) Committee action.--Each joint resolution 
        introduced pursuant to paragraph (1) shall be referred 
        to the appropriate committees of the House of 
        Representatives or the Committee on the Budget of the 
        Senate, as the case may be; and such Committee shall 
        report the joint resolution to its House without 
        amendment on or before the fifth day on which such 
        House is in session after the date on which the joint 
        resolution is introduced. If the Committee fails to 
        report the joint resolution within the five-day period 
        referred to in the preceding sentence, it shall be 
        automatically discharged from further consideration of 
        the joint resolution, and the joint resolution shall be 
        placed on the appropriate calendar.
            (4) Consideration of joint resolution.--
                    (A) A vote on final passage of a joint 
                resolution reported to the Senate or discharged 
                pursuant to paragraph (3) shall be taken on or 
                before the close of the fifth calendar day of 
                session after the date on which the joint 
                resolution is reported or after the Committee 
                has been discharged from further consideration 
                of the joint resolution. If prior to the 
                passage by one House of a joint resolution of 
                that House, that House receives the same joint 
                resolution from the other House, then--
                            (i) the procedure in that House 
                        shall be the same as if no such joint 
                        resolution had been received from the 
                        other House, but
                            (ii) the vote on final passage 
                        shall be on the joint resolution of the 
                        other House.
                When the joint resolution is agreed to, the 
                Clerk of the House of Representatives (in the 
                case of a House joint resolution agreed to in 
                the House of Representatives) or the Secretary 
                of the Senate (in the case of a Senate joint 
                resolution agreed to in the Senate) shall cause 
                the joint resolution to be engrossed, 
                certified, and transmitted to the other House 
                of the Congress as soon as practicable.
                    (B)(i) In the Senate, a joint resolution 
                under this paragraph shall be privileged. It 
                shall not be in order to move to reconsider the 
                vote by which the motion is agreed to or 
                disagreed to.
                    (ii) Debate in the Senate on a joint 
                resolution under this paragraph, and all 
                debatable motions and appeals in connection 
                therewith, shall be limited to not more than 
                five hours. The time shall be equally divided 
                between, and controlled by, the majority leader 
                and the minority leader or their designees.
                    (iii) Debate in the Senate on any debatable 
                motion or appeal in connection with a joint 
                resolution under this paragraph shall be 
                limited to not more than one hour, to be 
                equally divided between, and controlled by, the 
                mover and the manager of the joint resolution, 
                except that in the event the manager of the 
                joint resolution is in favor of any such motion 
                or appeal, the time in opposition thereto shall 
                be controlled by the minority leader or his 
                designee.
                    (iv) A motion in the Senate to further 
                limit debate on a joint resolution under this 
                paragraph is not debatable. A motion to table 
                or to recommit a joint resolution under this 
                paragraph is not in order.
                    (C) No amendment to a joint resolution 
                considered under this paragraph shall be in 
                order in the Senate.
    (b) Suspension of Sequestration Procedures.--Upon the 
enactment of a declaration of war or a joint resolution 
described in subsection (a)--
            (1) the subsequent issuance of any sequestration 
        report or any sequestration order is precluded;
            (2) sections 302(f), 310(d), 311(a), and title VI 
        of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 are suspended; 
        and
            (3) section 1103 of title 31, United States Code, 
        is suspended.
    (c) Restoration of Sequestration Procedures.--
            (1) In the event of a suspension of sequestration 
        procedures due to a declaration of war, then, effective 
        with the first fiscal year that begins in the session 
        after the state of war is concluded by Senate 
        ratification of the necessary treaties, the provisions 
        of subsection (b) triggered by that declaration of war 
        are no longer effective.
            (2) In the event of a suspension of sequestration 
        procedures due to the enactment of a joint resolution 
        described in subsection (a), then, effective with 
        regard to the first fiscal year beginning at least 12 
        months after the enactment of that resolution, the 
        provisions of subsection (b) triggered by that 
        resolution are no longer effective.

SEC. 258A. [2 U.S.C. 907B] MODIFICATION OF PRESIDENTIAL ORDER.

    (a) Introduction of Joint Resolution.--At any time after 
the Director of OMB issues a final sequestration report under 
section 254 for a fiscal year, but before the close of the 
twentieth calendar day of the session of Congress beginning 
after the date of issuance of such report, the majority leader 
of either House of Congress may introduce a joint resolution 
which contains provisions directing the President to modify the 
most recent order issued under section 254 or provide an 
alternative to reduce the deficit for such fiscal year. After 
the introduction of the first such joint resolution in either 
House of Congress in any calendar year, then no other joint 
resolution introduced in such House in such calendar year shall 
be subject to the procedures set forth in this section.
    (b) Procedures for Consideration of Joint Resolutions.--
            (1) Referral to committee.--A joint resolution 
        introduced in the Senate under subsection (a) shall not 
        be referred to a committee of the Senate and shall be 
        placed on the calendar pending disposition of such 
        joint resolution in accordance with this subsection.
            (2) Consideration in the senate.--On or after the 
        third calendar day (excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and 
        legal holidays) beginning after a joint resolution is 
        introduced under subsection (a), notwithstanding any 
        rule or precedent of the Senate, including Rule XXII of 
        the Standing Rules of the Senate, it is in order (even 
        though a previous motion to the same effect has been 
        disagreed to) for any Member of the Senate to move to 
        proceed to the consideration of the joint resolution. 
        The motion is not in order after the eighth calendar 
        day (excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and legal holidays) 
        beginning after a joint resolution (to which the motion 
        applies) is introduced. The joint resolution is 
        privileged in the Senate. A motion to reconsider the 
        vote by which the motion is agreed to or disagreed to 
        shall not be in order. If a motion to proceed to the 
        consideration of the joint resolution is agreed to, the 
        Senate shall immediately proceed to consideration of 
        the joint resolution without intervening motion, order, 
        or other business, and the joint resolution shall 
        remain the unfinished business of the Senate until 
        disposed of.
            (3) Debate in the senate.--
                    (A) In the Senate, debate on a joint 
                resolution introduced under subsection (a), 
                amendments thereto, and all debatable motions 
                and appeals in connection therewith shall be 
                limited to not more than 10 hours, which shall 
                be divided equally between the majority leader 
                and the minority leader (or their designees).
                    (B) A motion to postpone, or a motion to 
                proceed to the consideration of other business 
                is not in order. A motion to reconsider the 
                vote by which the joint resolution is agreed to 
                or disagreed to is not in order, and a motion 
                to recommit the joint resolution is not in 
                order.
                    (C)(i) No amendment that is not germane to 
                the provisions of the joint resolution or to 
                the order issued under section 254 shall be in 
                order in the Senate. In the Senate, an 
                amendment, any amendment to an amendment, or 
                any debatable motion or appeal is debatable for 
                not to exceed 30 minutes to be equally divided 
                between, and controlled by, the mover and the 
                majority leader (or their designees), except 
                that in the event that the majority leader 
                favors the amendment, motion, or appeal, the 
                minority leader (or the minority leader's 
                designee) shall control the time in opposition 
                to the amendment, motion, or appeal.
                    (ii) In the Senate, an amendment that is 
                otherwise in order shall be in order 
                notwithstanding the fact that it amends the 
                joint resolution in more than one place or 
                amends language previously amended. It shall 
                not be in order in the Senate to vote on the 
                question of agreeing to such a joint resolution 
                or any amendment thereto unless the figures 
                then contained in such joint resolution or 
                amendment are mathematically consistent.
            (4) Vote on final passage.--Immediately following 
        the conclusion of the debate on a joint resolution 
        introduced under subsection (a), a single quorum call 
        at the conclusion of the debate if requested in 
        accordance with the rules of the Senate, and the 
        disposition of any pending amendments under paragraph 
        (3), the vote on final passage of the joint resolution 
        shall occur.
            (5) Appeals.--Appeals from the decisions of the 
        Chair shall be decided without debate.
            (6) Conference reports.--In the Senate, points of 
        order under titles III, IV, and VI of the Congressional 
        Budget Act of 1974 are applicable to a conference 
        report on the joint resolution or any amendments in 
        disagreement thereto.
            (7) Resolution from other house.--If, before the 
        passage by the Senate of a joint resolution of the 
        Senate introduced under subsection (a), the Senate 
        receives from the House of Representatives a joint 
        resolution introduced under subsection (a), then the 
        following procedures shall apply:
                    (A) The joint resolution of the House of 
                Representatives shall not be referred to a 
                committee and shall be placed on the calendar.
                    (B) With respect to a joint resolution 
                introduced under subsection (a) in the Senate--
                            (i) the procedure in the Senate 
                        shall be the same as if no joint 
                        resolution had been received from the 
                        House; but
                            (ii)(I) the vote on final passage 
                        shall be on the joint resolution of the 
                        House if it is identical to the joint 
                        resolution then pending for passage in 
                        the Senate; or
                            (II) if the joint resolution from 
                        the House is not identical to the joint 
                        resolution then pending for passage in 
                        the Senate and the Senate then passes 
                        the Senate joint resolution, the Senate 
                        shall be considered to have passed the 
                        House joint resolution as amended by 
                        the text of the Senate joint 
                        resolution.
                    (C) Upon disposition of the joint 
                resolution received from the House, it shall no 
                longer be in order to consider the resolution 
                originated in the Senate.
            (8) Senate action on house resolution.--If the 
        Senate receives from the House of Representatives a 
        joint resolution introduced under subsection (a) after 
        the Senate has disposed of a Senate originated 
        resolution which is identical to the House passed joint 
        resolution, the action of the Senate with regard to the 
        disposition of the Senate originated joint resolution 
        shall be deemed to be the action of the Senate with 
        regard to the House originated joint resolution. If it 
        is not identical to the House passed joint resolution, 
        then the Senate shall be considered to have passed the 
        joint resolution of the House as amended by the text of 
        the Senate joint resolution.

SEC. 258B. [2 U.S.C. 907C] FLEXIBILITY AMONG DEFENSE PROGRAMS, 
                    PROJECTS, AND ACTIVITIES.

    (a) Subject to subsections (b), (c), and (d), new budget 
authority and unobligated balances for any programs, projects, 
or activities within major functional category 050 (other than 
a military personnel account) may be further reduced beyond the 
amount specified in an order issued by the President under 
section 254 for such fiscal year. To the extent such additional 
reductions are made and result in additional outlay reductions, 
the President may provide for lesser reductions in new budget 
authority and unobligated balances for other programs, 
projects, or activities within major functional category 050 
for such fiscal year, but only to the extent that the resulting 
outlay increases do not exceed the additional outlay 
reductions, and no such program, project, or activity may be 
increased above the level actually made available by law in 
appropriation Acts (before taking sequestration into account). 
In making calculations under this subsection, the President 
shall use account outlay rates that are identical to those used 
in the report by the Director of OMB under section 254.
    (b) No actions taken by the President under subsection (a) 
for a fiscal year may result in a domestic base closure or 
realignment that would otherwise be subject to section 2687 of 
title 10, United States Code.
    (c) The President may not exercise the authority provided 
by this paragraph \26\ for a fiscal year unless--
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    \26\ So in original. Probably should be ``section''.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (1) the President submits a single report to 
        Congress specifying, for each account, the detailed 
        changes proposed to be made for such fiscal year 
        pursuant to this section;
            (2) that report is submitted within 5 calendar days 
        of the start of the next session of Congress; and
            (3) a joint resolution affirming or modifying the 
        changes proposed by the President pursuant to this 
        paragraph \27\ becomes law.
    (d) Within 5 calendar days of session after the President 
submits a report to Congress under subsection (c)(1) for a 
fiscal year, the majority leader of each House of Congress 
shall (by request) introduce a joint resolution which contains 
provisions affirming the changes proposed by the President 
pursuant to this paragraph. \27\
    (e)(1) The matter after the resolving clause in any joint 
resolution introduced pursuant to subsection (d) shall be as 
follows: ``That the report of the President as submitted on 
[Insert Date] under section 258B is hereby approved.''.
    (2) The title of the joint resolution shall be ``Joint 
resolution approving the report of the President submitted 
under section 258B of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit 
Control Act of 1985.''.
    (3) Such joint resolution shall not contain any preamble.
    (f)(1) A joint resolution introduced in the Senate under 
subsection (d) shall be referred to the Committee on 
Appropriations, and if not reported within 5 calendar days 
(excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and legal holidays) from the 
date of introduction shall be considered as having been 
discharged therefrom and shall be placed on the appropriate 
calendar pending disposition of such joint resolution in 
accordance with this subsection. In the Senate, no amendment 
proposed in the Committee on Appropriations shall be in order 
other than an amendment (in the nature of a substitute) that is 
germane or relevant to the provisions of the joint resolution 
or to the order issued under section 254. For purposes of this 
paragraph, an amendment shall be considered to be relevant if 
it relates to function 050 (national defense).
    (2) On or after the third calendar day (excluding 
Saturdays, Sundays, and legal holidays) beginning after a joint 
resolution is placed on the Senate calendar, notwithstanding 
any rule or precedent of the Senate, including Rule XXII of the 
Standing Rules of the Senate, it is in order (even though a 
previous motion to the same effect has been disagreed to) for 
any Member of the Senate to move to proceed to the 
consideration of the joint resolution. The motion is not in 
order after the eighth calendar day (excluding Saturdays, 
Sundays, and legal holidays) beginning after such joint 
resolution is placed on the appropriate calendar. The motion is 
not debatable. The joint resolution is privileged in the 
Senate. A motion to reconsider the vote by which the motion is 
agreed to or disagreed to shall not be in order. If a motion to 
proceed to the consideration of the joint resolution is agreed 
to, the Senate shall immediately proceed to consideration of 
the joint resolution without intervening motion, order, or 
other business, and the joint resolution shall remain the 
unfinished business of the Senate until disposed of.
    (g)(1) In the Senate, debate on a joint resolution 
introduced under subsection (d), amendments thereto, and all 
debatable motions and appeals in connection therewith shall be 
limited to not more than 10 hours, which shall be divided 
equally between the majority leader and the minority leader (or 
their designees).
    (2) A motion to postpone, or a motion to proceed to the 
consideration of other business is not in order. A motion to 
reconsider the vote by which the joint resolution is agreed to 
or disagreed to is not in order. In the Senate, a motion to 
recommit the joint resolution is not in order.
    (h)(1) No amendment that is not germane or relevant to the 
provisions of the joint resolution or to the order issued under 
section 254 shall be in order in the Senate. For purposes of 
this paragraph, an amendment shall be considered to be relevant 
if it relates to function 050 (national defense). In the 
Senate, an amendment, any amendment to an amendment, or any 
debatable motion or appeal is debatable for not to exceed 30 
minutes to be equally divided between, and controlled by, the 
mover and the majority leader (or their designees), except that 
in the event that the majority leader favors the amendment, 
motion, or appeal, the minority leader (or the minority 
leader's designee) shall control the time in opposition to the 
amendment, motion, or appeal.
    (2) In the Senate, an amendment that is otherwise in order 
shall be in order notwithstanding the fact that it amends the 
joint resolution in more than one place or amends language 
previously amended, so long as the amendment makes or maintains 
mathematical consistency. It shall not be in order in the 
Senate to vote on the question of agreeing to such a joint 
resolution or any amendment thereto unless the figures then 
contained in such joint resolution or amendment are 
mathematically consistent.
    (3) It shall not be in order in the Senate to consider any 
amendment to any joint resolution introduced under subsection 
(d) or any conference report thereon if such amendment or 
conference report would have the effect of decreasing any 
specific budget outlay reductions below the level of such 
outlay reductions provided in such joint resolution unless such 
amendment or conference report makes a reduction in other 
specific budget outlays at least equivalent to any increase in 
outlays provided by such amendment or conference report.
    (4) For purposes of the application of paragraph (3), the 
level of outlays and specific budget outlay reductions provided 
in an amendment shall be determined on the basis of estimates 
made by the Committee on the Budget of the Senate.
    (i) Immediately following the conclusion of the debate on a 
joint resolution introduced under subsection (d), a single 
quorum call at the conclusion of the debate if requested in 
accordance with the rules of the Senate, and the disposition of 
any pending amendments under subsection (h), the vote on final 
passage of the joint resolution shall occur.
    (j) Appeals from the decisions of the Chair relating to the 
application of the rules of the Senate to the procedure 
relating to a joint resolution described in subsection (d) 
shall be decided without debate.
    (k) In the Senate, points of order under titles III and IV 
of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 (including points of 
order under sections 302(c), 303(a), 306, and 401(b)(1)) are 
applicable to a conference report on the joint resolution or 
any amendments in disagreement thereto.
    (l) If, before the passage by the Senate of a joint 
resolution of the Senate introduced under subsection (d), the 
Senate receives from the House of Representatives a joint 
resolution introduced under subsection (d), then the following 
procedures shall apply:
            (1) The joint resolution of the House of 
        Representatives shall not be referred to a committee.
            (2) With respect to a joint resolution introduced 
        under subsection (d) in the Senate--
                    (A) the procedure in the Senate shall be 
                the same as if no joint resolution had been 
                received from the House; but
                    (B)(i) the vote on final passage shall be 
                on the joint resolution of the House if it is 
                identical to the joint resolution then pending 
                for passage in the Senate; or
                    (ii) if the joint resolution from the House 
                is not identical to the joint resolution then 
                pending for passage in the Senate and the 
                Senate then passes the Senate joint resolution, 
                the Senate shall be considered to have passed 
                the House joint resolution as amended by the 
                text of the Senate joint resolution.
    (3) Upon disposition of the joint resolution received from 
the House, it shall no longer be in order to consider the joint 
resolution originated in the Senate.
    (m) If the Senate receives from the House of 
Representatives a joint resolution introduced under subsection 
(d) after the Senate has disposed of a Senate originated joint 
resolution which is identical to the House passed joint 
resolution, the action of the Senate with regard to the 
disposition of the Senate originated joint resolution shall be 
deemed to be the action of the Senate with regard to the House 
originated joint resolution. If it is not identical to the 
House passed joint resolution, then the Senate shall be 
considered to have passed the joint resolution of the House as 
amended by the text of the Senate joint resolution.

SEC. 258C. [2 U.S.C. 907D] SPECIAL RECONCILIATION PROCESS.

    (a) Reporting of Resolutions and Reconciliation Bills and 
Resolutions, in the Senate.--
            (1) Committee alternatives to presidential order.--
        After the submission of an OMB sequestration update 
        report under section 254 that envisions a sequestration 
        under section 252 or 253, each standing committee of 
        the Senate may, not later than October 10, submit to 
        the Committee on the Budget of the Senate information 
        of the type described in section 301(d) of the 
        Congressional Budget Act of 1974 with respect to 
        alternatives to the order envisioned by such report 
        insofar as such order affects laws within the 
        jurisdiction of the committee.
            (2) Initial budget committee action.--After the 
        submission of such a report, the Committee on the 
        Budget of the Senate may, not later than October 15, 
        report to the Senate a resolution. The resolution may 
        affirm the impact of the order envisioned by such 
        report, in whole or in part. To the extent that any 
        part is not affirmed, the resolution shall state which 
        parts are not affirmed and shall contain instructions 
        to committees of the Senate of the type referred to in 
        section 310(a) of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, 
        sufficient to achieve at least the total level of 
        deficit reduction contained in those sections which are 
        not affirmed.
            (3) Response of committees.--Committees instructed 
        pursuant to paragraph (2), or affected thereby, shall 
        submit their responses to the Budget Committee no later 
        than 10 days after the resolution referred to in 
        paragraph (2) is agreed to, except that if only one 
        such Committee is so instructed such Committee shall, 
        by the same date, report to the Senate a reconciliation 
        bill or reconciliation resolution containing its 
        recommendations in response to such instructions. A 
        committee shall be considered to have complied with all 
        instructions to it pursuant to a resolution adopted 
        under paragraph (2) if it has made recommendations with 
        respect to matters within its jurisdiction which would 
        result in a reduction in the deficit at least equal to 
        the total reduction directed by such instructions.
            (4) Budget committee action.--Upon receipt of the 
        recommendations received in response to a resolution 
        referred to in paragraph (2), the Budget Committee 
        shall report to the Senate a reconciliation bill or 
        reconciliation resolution, or both, carrying out all 
        such recommendations without any substantive revisions. 
        In the event that a committee instructed in a 
        resolution referred to in paragraph (2) fails to submit 
        any recommendation (or, when only one committee is 
        instructed, fails to report a reconciliation bill or 
        resolution) in response to such instructions, the 
        Budget Committee shall include in the reconciliation 
        bill or reconciliation resolution reported pursuant to 
        this subparagraph legislative language within the 
        jurisdiction of the noncomplying committee to achieve 
        the amount of deficit reduction directed in such 
        instructions.
            (5) Point of order.--It shall not be in order in 
        the Senate to consider any reconciliation bill or 
        reconciliation resolution reported under paragraph (4) 
        with respect to a fiscal year, any amendment thereto, 
        or any conference report thereon if--
                    (A) the enactment of such bill or 
                resolution as reported;
                    (B) the adoption and enactment of such 
                amendment; or
                    (C) the enactment of such bill or 
                resolution in the form recommended in such 
                conference report,
        would cause the amount of the deficit for such fiscal 
        year to exceed the maximum deficit amount for such 
        fiscal year, unless the low-growth report submitted 
        under section 254 projects negative real economic 
        growth for such fiscal year, or for each of any two 
        consecutive quarters during such fiscal year.
            (6) Treatment of certain amendments.--In the 
        Senate, an amendment which adds to a resolution 
        reported under paragraph (2) an instruction of the type 
        referred to in such paragraph shall be in order during 
        the consideration of such resolution if such amendment 
        would be in order but for the fact that it would be 
        held to be non-germane on the basis that the 
        instruction constitutes new matter.
            (7) Definition.--For purposes of paragraphs (1), 
        (2), and (3), the term ``day'' shall mean any calendar 
        day on which the Senate is in session.
    (b) Procedures.--
            (1) In general.--Except as provided in paragraph 
        (2), in the Senate the provisions of sections 305 and 
        310 of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 for the 
        consideration of concurrent resolutions on the budget 
        and conference reports thereon shall also apply to the 
        consideration of resolutions, and reconciliation bills 
        and reconciliation resolutions reported under this 
        paragraph and conference reports thereon.
            (2) Limit on debate.--Debate in the Senate on any 
        resolution reported pursuant to subsection (a)(2), and 
        all amendments thereto and debatable motions and 
        appeals in connection therewith, shall be limited to 10 
        hours.
            (3) Limitation on amendments.--Section 310(d)(2) of 
        the Congressional Budget Act shall apply to 
        reconciliation bills and reconciliation resolutions 
        reported under this subsection.
            (4) Bills and resolutions received from the 
        house.--Any bill or resolution received in the Senate 
        from the House, which is a companion to a 
        reconciliation bill or reconciliation resolution of the 
        Senate for the purposes of this subsection, shall be 
        considered in the Senate pursuant to the provisions of 
        this subsection.
            (5) Definition.--For purposes of this subsection,

    (a) Expedited Review.--
            (1) Any Member of Congress may bring an action, in 
        the United States District Court for the District of 
        Columbia, for declaratory judgment and injunctive 
        relief on the ground that any order that might be 
        issued pursuant to section 254 violates the 
        Constitution.
            (2) Any Member of Congress, or any other person 
        adversely affected by any action taken under this 
        title, may bring an action, in the United States

        declaratory judgment and injunctive relief concerning 
        the constitutionality of this title.
            (3) Any Member of Congress may bring an action, in 
        the United States District Court for the District of 
        Columbia, for declaratory and injunctive relief on the 
        ground that the terms of an order issued under section 
        254 do not comply with the requirements of this title.
            (4) A copy of any complaint in an action brought 
        under paragraph (1), (2), or (3) shall be promptly 
        delivered to the Secretary of the Senate and the Clerk

        action.
            (5) Any action brought under paragraph (1), (2), or

        court in accordance with section 2284 of title 28, 
        United States Code.
Nothing in this section or in any other law shall infringe upon

for the District of Columbia which is issued pursuant to an 
action brought under paragraph (1), (2), or (3) of subsection

District Court for the District of Columbia and the Supreme

expedite to the greatest possible extent the disposition of any 
matter brought under subsection (a).
    (d) Noncompliance With Sequestration Procedures.--
            (1) If it is finally determined by a court of 
        competent jurisdiction that an order issued by the 
        President under section 254 for any fiscal year--
                    (A) does not reduce automatic spending 
                increases under any program specified in 
                section 256(a) if such increases are required 
                to be reduced by part C of this title (or 
                reduces such increases by a greater extent than 
                is so required), or
                    (B) does not sequester the amount of 
                budgetary resources which is required to be 
                sequestered by such part (or sequesters more 
                than that amount) with respect to any program, 
                project, activity, or account,
        the President shall, within 20 days after such 
        determination is made, revise the order in accordance 
        with such determination.
            (2) If the order issued by the President under 
        section 254 for any fiscal year--
                    (A) does not reduce any automatic spending 
                increase to the extent that such increase is 
                required to be reduced by part C of this title,
                    (B) does not sequester any amount of new 
                budget authority, new loan guarantee 
                commitments, new direct loan obligations, or 
                spending authority which is required to be 
                sequestered by such part, or
                    (C) does not reduce any obligation 
                limitation by the amount by which such 
                limitation is required to be reduced under such 
                part,
        on the claim or defense that the constitutional powers 
        of the President prevent such sequestration or 
        reduction or permit the avoidance of such sequestration 
        or reduction, and such claim or defense is finally 
        determined by the Supreme Court of the United States to 
        be valid, then the entire order issued pursuant to 
        section 254 for such fiscal year shall be null and 
        void.
    (e) Timing of Relief.--No order of any court granting 
declaratory or injunctive relief from the order of the 
President issued under section 254, including but not limited 
to relief permitting or requiring the expenditure of funds 
sequestered by such order, shall take effect during the 
pendency of the action before such court, during the time 
appeal may be taken, or, if appeal is taken, during the period 
before the court to which such appeal is taken has entered its 
final order disposing of such action.
    (f) Preservation of Other Rights.--The rights created by 
this section are in addition to the rights of any person under 
law, subject to subsection (e).
    (g) Economic Data, Assumptions, and Methodologies.--The 
economic data and economic assumptions used by the Director of 
OMB in computing the figures specified in any report issued by 
the Director of OMB under section 254, shall not be subject to 
review in any judicial or administrative proceeding.
