   REVISIONS TO THE 302(a) ALLOCATIONS ESTABLISHED BY THE CONCURRENT 
      RESOLUTIONS ON THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEARS 2010 THROUGH 2014

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Under a previous order of the House, the 
gentleman from South Carolina (Mr. Spratt) is recognized for 5 minutes.
  Mr. SPRATT. Madam Speaker, under section 321 of S. Con. Res. 13, the 
concurrent resolution on the budget for fiscal year 2010, I hereby 
submit a revision to the budget allocations and aggregates for certain 
House committees for fiscal year 2010 and the period of fiscal years 
2010 through 2014. This adjustment responds to House consideration of 
the bill H.R. 3631, ``To amend title XVIII to provide for the 
application of a consistent Medicare part B premium for all Medicare 
beneficiaries in a budget neutral manner.'' A corresponding table is 
attached.
  This revision represents an adjustment for the purposes of sections 
302 and 311 of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, as amended. For 
the purposes of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, as amended, this 
revised allocation is to be considered as an allocation included in the 
budget resolution, pursuant to section 427(b) of S. Con. Res. 13.
