 Mr. DOMENICI. Mr. President, section 103(c) of Public Law 104-
121, the Contract With America Advancement Act, requires the chairman 
of the Senate Budget Committee to adjust the discretionary spending 
limits, the appropriate budgetary aggregates, and the Appropriations 
Committee's allocation contained in the most recently adopted budget 
resolution--in this case, House Concurrent Resolution 178--to reflect 
additional new budget authority and outlays for continuing disability 
reviews, CDR's, as defined in section 201(g)(1)(A) of the Social 
Security Act. The maximum amount of such adjustments was modified by 
section 211 of Public Law 104-193, the Personal Responsibility and Work 
Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996.
  I hereby submit revisions to the nondefense discretionary spending 
limits for fiscal year 1997 contained in section 301 of House 
Concurrent Resolution 178 in the following amounts:


Budget Authority:
