    REVISION TO BUDGET ALLOCATIONS AND AGGREGATES FOR CERTAIN HOUSE 
  COMMITTEES FOR FISCAL YEARS 2008 AND 2009 AND THE PERIOD OF FISCAL 
                        YEARS 2009 THROUGH 2013

  Mr. SPRATT. Madam Speaker, under section 201 of S. Con. Res. 70, the 
Concurrent Resolution on the Budget for fiscal year 2009, I hereby 
submit for printing in the Congressional Record a revision to the 
budget allocations and aggregates for certain House committees for 
fiscal years 2008 and 2009

[[Page H1017]]

and the period of fiscal years 2009 through 2013. This revision 
represents an adjustment to certain House committee budget allocations 
and aggregates for the purposes of sections 302 and 311 of the 
Congressional Budget Act of 1974, as amended, and in response to 
consideration of the Senate amendment to the bill H.R. 2 (Children's 
Health Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2009). Corresponding 
tables are attached.
  Under section 323 of S. Con. Res. 70, this adjustment to the budget 
allocations and aggregates applies while the measure is under 
consideration. The adjustments will take effect upon enactment of the 
measure. For purposes of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, as 
amended, a revised allocation made under section 323 of S. Con. Res. 70 
is to be considered as an allocation included in the resolution.
