BUDGETARY REVISIONS
Mr. CONRAD. Mr. President, I previously filed committee allocations
and budgetary aggregates pursuant to section 106 of the Budget Control
Act of 2011 and, on June 29, I revised some of those levels pursuant to
the Budget Control Act. Today, I am further adjusting those levels,
specifically the allocation to the Committee on Appropriations for
fiscal year 2013 and the budgetary aggregates for fiscal year 2013.
Section 101 of the Budget Control Act allows for various adjustments
to the statutory limits on discretionary spending, while section 106(d)
allows the chairman of the Budget Committee to make revisions to
allocations, aggregates, and levels consistent with those adjustments.
The Committee on Appropriations reported two bills that are eligible
for an adjustment under the Budget Control Act:
One, the Department of Defense Appropriations Act for 2013
includes $93.297 billion in budget authority that is
designated as funding for Overseas Contingency Operations/the
Global War on Terrorism. That funding is estimated to result
in $50.697 billion in outlays in 2013.
Two, the fiscal year 2013 disaster assistance supplemental
includes $55.957 billion in budget authority that is
designated as funding either for a disaster, $5.379 billion,
or an emergency ($50.578 billion). In total, that funding is
estimated to result in $8.974 billion in outlays in 2013.
In addition, I am making corrections to the June 29, 2012, adjustment
by removing the off-budget portion of the program integrity funding
previously provided for continuing disability reviews and
redeterminations.
Consequently, I am revising the budgetary aggregates for 2013 by a
total of $148.840 billion in budget authority and $59.302 billion in
outlays. I am also revising the budget authority and outlay allocations
to the Appropriations Committee by $93.409 billion in security budget
authority, $55.845 billion in nonsecurity budget authority, and $59.671
in total outlays.
I ask unanimous consent that the following tables detailing the
changes to the allocation to the Committee on Appropriations and the
budgetary aggregates be printed in the Record.
There being no objection, the material was ordered to be printed in
the Record, as follows:
