BUDGETARY REVISIONS
Mr. ENZI. Madam President, section 4305 of S. Con. Res. 11, the
concurrent resolution on the budget for fiscal year 2016, allows the
chairman of the Senate Budget Committee to revise the allocations,
aggregates, and levels in the budget resolution for legislation related
to health care reform. The authority to adjust is contingent on the
legislation not increasing the deficit over either the period of the
total of fiscal years 2016-2020 or the period of the total of fiscal
years 2016-2025.
I find that Senate amendment 2874 fulfills the conditions of deficit
neutrality found in sec. 4305 of S. Con. Res. 11. Accordingly, I am
revising the allocations to the Committee on Finance; the Committee on
Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions, HELP; and the budgetary
aggregates to account for the budget effects of the amendment.
I ask unanimous consent that the accompanying tables, which provide
details about the adjustment, be printed in the Record.
There being no objection, the material was ordered to be printed in
the Record, as follows:
