                          BUDGETARY REVISIONS

  Mrs. MURRAY. Mr. President, section 114(d) of H.J. Res. 59, the 
Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013, allows the chairman of the Senate Budget 
Committee to revise the allocations, aggregates, and levels filed on 
January 14, 2014, pursuant to section 111 of H.J. Res. 59, for a number 
of deficit-neutral reserve funds. These reserve funds were incorporated 
into the Bipartisan Budget Act by reference to sections of S. Con. Res. 
8, the Senate-passed budget resolution for 2014. Among these sections 
is a reference to section 302 of S. Con. Res. 8, which, in subsection 
(c), establishes a deficit-neutral reserve fund for unemployment 
relief. The authority to adjust enforceable levels in the Senate for 
unemployment relief is contingent on that legislation not increasing 
the deficit over either the period of the total of fiscal years 2013 
through 2018 or the period of the total of fiscal years 2013 through 
2023.
  I find that amendment 2874, the Emergency Unemployment Compensation 
Extension Act of 2014, to H.R. 3979 fulfills the conditions of the 
deficit-neutral reserve fund for unemployment relief, including not 
increasing the deficit over either of the 2013 through 2018 or 2013 
through 2023 budget windows. Therefore, pursuant to section 114(d) of 
H.J. Res. 59, I am adjusting the budgetary aggregates, as well as the 
allocation to the Committee on Finance.

  I ask unanimous consent that the following tables detailing the 
revisions be printed in the Record.
  There being no objection, the material was ordered to be printed in
