BUDGETARY REVISIONS
Mr. ENZI. Mr. President, section 3001 of S. Con. Res. 3, the
Concurrent Resolution on the Budget for Fiscal Year 2017, allows the
chairman of the Senate Budget Committee to revise the allocations,
aggregates, and levels in the budget resolution for legislation related
to healthcare reform. The authority to adjust is contingent on the
legislation not increasing the deficit over the period of the total of
fiscal years 2017-2026.
I find that S. Amdt. 267 fulfills the conditions of deficit
neutrality found in section 3001 of S. Con. Res. 3. 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 am
also adjusting the unassigned to committee savings levels in the budget
resolution to reflect that, while there are savings in the amendment
attributable to both the HELP and Finance committees, the Congressional
Budget Office and Joint Committee on Taxation are unable to produce
unique estimates for each provision due to interactions and other
effects that are estimated simultaneously.
I ask unanimous consent that the 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:
