                  DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA APPROPRIATIONS

  Mr. NICKLES. Madam President, the District of Columbia appropriations 
bill for fiscal year 2005, S. 2666, as reported by the Senate Committee 
on Appropriations provides $560 million in budget authority and $540 
million outlays in fiscal year 2005. There is no mandatory funding in 
this bill.
  The bill provides total discretionary budget authority in fiscal year 
2005, of $560 million. This amount is equal to the President's request, 
it matches the 302(b) allocations adopted by the Senate Appropriations 
Committee, and is $18 million more than fiscal year 2004 enacted levels 
excluding fiscal year 2004 supplemental appropriations.
  I commend the distinguished chairman of the Appropriations Committee 
for bringing this legislation before the Senate, and I ask unanimous 
consent that a table displaying the Budget Committee scoring of the 
bill be printed in the Record.
  There being no objection, the material was ordered to be printed in 
the Record, as follows:
