BUDGET ACT ENFORCEMENT DETAILS
Mr. ENZI. Mr. President, the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015, Public
Law 114-74, included an instruction to the chairman of the Senate
Committee on the Budget to file allocations, aggregates, and budgetary
levels in the Senate after April 15, 2016. Today, I wish to submit the
required filing found in that act.
Specifically, section 102 of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015
requires the chairman to file: No. 1, an allocation for fiscal year
2017 for the Committee on Appropriations; No. 2, an allocation for
fiscal years 2017, 2017 through 2021, and 2017 through 2026 for
committees other than the Committee on Appropriations; No. 3, aggregate
spending levels for fiscal year 2017; No. 4, aggregate revenue levels
for fiscal years 2017, 2017 through 2021, and 2017 through 2026; and
No. 5, aggregate levels of outlays and revenue for fiscal years 2017,
2017 through 2021, and 2017 through 2026 for Social Security.
The figures included in this filing are consistent with the
discretionary spending limits set forth in the Bipartisan Budget Act of
2015 and the most recent baseline from the Congressional Budget Office,
CBO. CBO's last baseline was released on March 24, 2016.
In addition to the update for enforceable limits above, section
102(c) of the act allows for the matter contained in subtitles A and B
of title IV of S. Con. Res. 11, the fiscal year 2016 congressional
budget resolution, to be updated by 1 fiscal year. Pursuant to this
authority, all reserve funds available to the Senate in title IV of
last year's budget resolution are updated and available for use.
For purposes of enforcing the Senate's pay-as-you-go rule, which is
found in section 201 of S. Con. Res. 21, the fiscal year 2008
congressional budget resolution, I am resetting the Senate's scorecard
to zero for all fiscal years.
All years in the accompanying tables are fiscal years.
I ask unanimous consent that the accompanying tables detailing
enforcement in the Senate be printed in the Record.
There being no objection, the material was ordered to be printed in
the Record, as follows:
