     that would provide an advance appropriation.
       (2) Definition.--In this section, the term ``advance 
     appropriation'' means any new budget authority provided in a 
     bill or joint resolution making appropriations for fiscal

     available for any fiscal year after 2013.
       (b) Exceptions.--Advance appropriations may be provided for 
     fiscal years 2013 and 2014 for programs, projects, 
     activities, or accounts identified in the joint explanatory 
     statement of managers accompanying this resolution under the 
     heading ``Accounts Identified for Advance Appropriations'' in 
     an aggregate amount not to exceed $28,500,000,000 in new 
     budget authority in each year.
       (c) Supermajority Waiver and Appeal.--

     suspended only by an affirmative vote of three-fifths of the 
     Members, duly chosen and sworn.
       (2) Appeal.--An affirmative vote of three-fifths of the 
     Members of the Senate, duly chosen and sworn, shall be

     conference report on, or an amendment between the Houses in 
     relation to, a bill, upon a point of order being made by any 
     Senator pursuant to this section, and such point of order 
     being sustained, such material contained in such conference 
     report shall be deemed stricken, and the Senate shall proceed 
     to consider the question of whether the Senate shall recede 
     from its amendment and concur with a further amendment, or 
     concur in the House amendment with a further amendment, as 
     the case may be, which further amendment shall consist of 
     only that portion of the conference report or House 
     amendment, as the case may be, not so stricken. Any such 
     motion in the Senate shall be debatable. In any case in which

     spending'', ``receipts'', and ``appropriations for 
     discretionary accounts'' mean any provision of a bill, joint 
     resolution, amendment, motion, or conference report that

     terms have been defined and interpreted for purposes of the 
     Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985.
       (e) Point of Order.--
       (1) In general.--When the Senate is considering a bill, 
     resolution, amendment, motion, or conference report, if a 
     point of order is made by a Senator against an emergency 
     designation in that measure, that provision making such a 
     designation shall be stricken from the measure and may not be

     subsection.
       (3) Definition of an emergency designation.--For purposes

     paragraph (1) may be raised by a Senator as provided in 
     section 313(e) of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974.
       (5) Conference reports.--When the Senate is considering a 
     conference report on, or an amendment between the Houses in 
     relation to, a bill, upon a point of order being made by any 
     Senator pursuant to this section, and such point of order 
     being sustained, such material contained in such conference 
     report shall be deemed stricken, and the Senate shall proceed 
     to consider the question of whether the Senate shall recede 
     from its amendment and concur with a further amendment, or 
     concur in the House amendment with a further amendment, as 
     the case may be, which further amendment shall consist of 
     only that portion of the conference report or House

     operation of this subsection), no further amendment shall be 
     in order.
       (f) Criteria.--
       (1) In general.--For purposes of this section, any

     estimated in advance, is not unforeseen.
       (g) Inapplicability.--In the Senate, section 403 of S. Con. 
     Res. 13 (111th Congress), the concurrent resolution on the 
     budget for fiscal year 2010, shall no longer apply.
