 COMMITTEE ALLOCATIONS, BUDGET AGGREGATES, AND PAY-AS-YOU-GO SCORECARD

  Mr. CONRAD. Mr. President, section 106 of the Budget Control Act of 
2011 provides for budget enforcement in the Senate for the remainder of 
the current year, 2011, for the upcoming budget year, 2012, and, if 
necessary, for fiscal year 2013.
  Section 106(b)(1) requires the chairman of the Budget Committee to 
file: (1) allocations for fiscal years 2011 and 2012 for the Committee 
on Appropriations; (2) allocations for fiscal years 2011, 2012, 2012 
through 2016, and 2012 through 2021 for committees other than the 
Committee on Appropriations; (3) aggregate spending levels for fiscal 
years 2011 and 2012; (4) aggregate revenue levels for fiscal years 
2011, 2012, 2012 through 2016, and 2012 through 2021; and (5) aggregate 
outlay and revenue levels for fiscal years 2011, 2012, 2012 through 
2016, and 2012 through 2021 for Social Security.
  In the case of the Committee on Appropriations, the allocations for 
2011 and 2012 shall be set consistent with the discretionary spending 
limits set forth in the Budget Control Act. In the case of allocations 
for committees other than the Committee on Appropriations and the 
revenue and Social Security aggregates, the levels shall be set 
consistent with the Congressional Budget Office's March 2011 baseline 
adjusted to account for the budgetary effects of legislation enacted 
prior to and including the Budget Control Act but not included in the 
March 2011 baseline. In the case of the spending aggregates for 2011 
and 2012, the levels shall be set consistent with the Congressional 
Budget Office's March 2011 baseline adjusted to account for the 
budgetary effects of legislation enacted prior to and including the 
Budget Control Act but not included in the March 2011 baseline and the 
discretionary spending limits set forth in the Budget Control Act.
  In addition, section 106(c)(1) requires the chairman of the Budget 
Committee to reset the Senate pay-as-you-go scorecard to zero for all 
fiscal years and to notify the Senate of this action.
  I ask unanimous consent that the following tables detailing the new 
committee allocations, budgetary and Social Security aggregates, and 
pay-as-you-go scorecard that I am making pursuant to section 106 of the 
Budget Control Act of 2011 be printed in the Record.
  There being no objection, the material was ordered to be printed in 
the Record, as follows:
