                                      Committee on the Budget,

                                 Washington, DC, November 2, 2017.
       Mr. Speaker, pursuant to section 5403 of H. Con. Res. 71, 
     the Concurrent Resolution on the Budget for Fiscal Year 2018, 
     I hereby submit for printing in the Congressional Record 
     revisions to the aggregates and the committee 302(a) 
     allocations printed in the Congressional Record on November 
     2, 2017. These revisions reflect the budgetary impact of H.R. 
     3922, the CHAMPIONING HEALTHY KIDS Act of 2017, as modified 
     by H. Res. 601. H.R. 3922 extends funding through fiscal year 
     2022 for the State Children's Health Insurance Program in 
     addition to providing a two-year extension for Federally 
     Qualified Health Centers and other various public health 
     programs. Corresponding tables are attached.
       These revisions represent an adjustment for purposes of 
     budget enforcement. These revised aggregates and allocations 
     are to be considered as the aggregates and allocations 
     established in the budget resolution, pursuant to H. Con. 
     Res. 71, as adjusted. Pursuant to section 4203 of H. Con. 
     Res. 71, these adjustments apply only while H.R. 3922, as 
     modified by H. Res. 601, is under consideration or upon its 
     enactment.
           Sincerely,

                                                  Diane Black,

                                                         Chairman,

    REVISIONS TO THE ALLOCATIONS OF THE FISCAL YEAR 2018 CONCURRENT 
                        RESOLUTION ON THE BUDGET

                                         House of Representatives,


                                      Committee on the Budget,

                                 Washington, DC, November 2, 2017.
       Mr. Speaker, pursuant to section 5404 of H. Con. Res. 71, 
     the Concurrent Resolution on the Budget for Fiscal Year 2018, 
     I hereby submit for printing in the Congressional Record 
     revisions to the committee 302(a) allocations printed in the 
     Congressional Record on November 2, 2017. These revisions 
     reflect the budgetary impact of H.R. 849, the Protecting 
     Seniors' Access to Medicare Act of 2017. The bill repeals 
     provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act 
     that established the Independent Payment Advisory Board. A 
     corresponding table is attached.
       These revisions represent an adjustment for purposes of 
     budget enforcement. The revised allocations are to be 
     considered as the allocations established in the budget 
     resolution, pursuant to H. Con. Res. 71, as adjusted. 
     Pursuant to section 4203 of H. Con. Res. 71, these 
     adjustments apply only while H.R. 849 is under consideration 
     or upon its enactment.
           Sincerely,

                                                  Diane Black,

                                                         Chairman,
                                          Committee on the Budget.
