DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY AND MANAGEMENT ASSISTANCE 
     BUDGET, 1996--MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

  The SPEAKER pro tempore laid before the House the following message 
from the President of the United States; which was read and, together 
with the accompanying papers, without objection, referred to the 
Committee on Government Reform and Oversight.

To the Congress of the United States:
  In accordance with section 106(a) of the District of Columbia 
Financial Responsibility and Management Assistance Authority Act of 
1995, I am transmitting the District of Columbia Financial 
Responsibility and Management Assistance Authority's operating budget 
for FY 1996.
  The Authority's request for its FY 1996 operating budget is $3.5 
million. This budget was developed based on an estimated staffing level 
of 35 full-time employees. After reviewing the budgets and staffing 
levels of other control boards, the Authority believes this staffing 
level is the minimum necessary to carry out its wide range of fiscal, 
management, and legal responsibilities.
  This transmittal does not represent an endorsement of the budget's 
contents.
                                                  William J. Clinton.  
  The White House, August 4, 1995.
