                   FURTHER CHANGES TO S. CON. RES. 21

  Mr. CONRAD. Mr. President, section 308(a) of S. Con. Res. 21, the 
2008 budget resolution, permits the chairman of the Senate Budget 
Committee to revise the allocations, aggregates, and other appropriate 
levels and limits in the resolution for energy legislation that meets 
certain conditions, including that such legislation not worsen the 
deficit over the period of the total of fiscal years 2007 through 2012 
or the period of the total of fiscal years 2007 through 2017.
  I find that SA 4825, a complete substitute for S. 3036, the 
Lieberman-Warner Climate Security Act of 2008, satisfies the conditions 
of the deficit-neutral reserve fund for energy legislation. Therefore, 
pursuant to section 308(a), I am adjusting the aggregates in the 2008 
budget resolution, as well as the allocation provided to the Senate 
Environment and Public Works Committee.
  I ask unanimous consent that the following revisions to S. Con. Res. 
21 be printed in the Record.
  There being no objection, the material was ordered to be printed in 
the Record, as follows:

 CONCURRENT RESOLUTION ON THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 2008--S. CON. RES.

       308(a) DEFICIT-NEUTRAL RESERVE FUND FOR ENERGY LEGISLATION
