  COMMUNICATION FROM THE CHAIRMAN, COMMITTEE ON THE BUDGET REGARDING 
   ALLOCATIONS FOR THE APPROPRIATIONS COMMITTEE FOR FISCAL YEAR 1995 
        PURSUANT TO SECTION 603 OF THE CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET ACT

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Under a previous order of the House, the 
gentleman from Minnesota [Mr. Sabo] is recognized for 5 minutes.
  Mr. SABO. Mr. Speaker, section 603 of the Congressional Budget Act 
requires the Chairman of the Budget Committee to submit to the House a 
spending allocation for the Appropriations Committee, if Congress has 
not completed action on the budget resolution by April 15.
  The fiscal year 1995 budget resolution is currently in conference. I 
am today submitting an allocation to the Committee on Appropriations 
pursuant to section 630 in order to comply with the requirements of the 
Budget Act. This allocation will be superseded by a regular allocation 
to all committees when a conference report on the budget resolution is 
adopted.
  As required by section 603 of the Budget Act, the allocation I am 
submitting is consistent with the discretionary spending limits as 
calculated in the President's most recent Sequestration Preview Report 
and adjusted by the special allowances specified by section 
251(b)(2)(E)(i)-(ii) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit 
Control Act. Those allowances are applicable to fiscal year 1995 as a 
result of section 253(g)(1)(B) of that Act. For mandatory programs, the 
allocation equals the Congressional Budget Office baseline estimate. 
The allocation is as follows:
