BUDGET SCOREKEEPING REPORT
Mr. ENZI. Mr. President, I rise to submit to the Senate the budget
scorekeeping report for February 2020. This is my fourth scorekeeping
report since I filed the deemed budget resolution for fiscal year 2020
on September 9, 2019, as required by the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2019,
BBA19. The report compares current-law levels of spending and revenues
with the amounts agreed to in BBA19. In the Senate, this information is
used to determine whether budgetary points of order lie against pending
legislation. The Republican staff of the Budget Committee and the
Congressional Budget Office, CBO, prepared this report pursuant to
section 308(b) of the Congressional Budget Act, CBA. The information
included in this report is current through February 21, 2020.
Since I filed the last scorekeeping report on January 15, 2020, only
one measure was enacted with significant budgetary effects. On January
29, 2020, the President signed H.R. 5430, the United States-Mexico-
Canada Agreement--USMCA--Implementation Act, into law. The measure
implemented the USMCA and affected both revenue and spending. According
to CBO, the USMCA Implementation Act will decrease direct spending
outlays by $74 million over 10 years and increase revenues by nearly $3
billion over the same period. Direct spending effects are largely
attributable to the act's provisions related to the dairy industry,
while revenues are expected to increase due to higher receipts from
tariffs on motor vehicles and parts. The USMCA Implementation Act also
included $843 million in discretionary appropriations, designated as
emergency spending, for Federal agencies to execute the agreement.
Budget Committee Republican staff prepared tables A-D.
Table A gives the amount by which each Senate authorizing committee
exceeds or falls below its allocations for budget authority and outlays
under the fiscal year 2020 deemed budget resolution. This information
is used for enforcing committee allocations pursuant to section 302 of
the CBA. Legislation enacted since the enactment of BBA19 has resulted
in six authorizing committees being in breach of their allocations. The
direct spending effects of the USMCA Implementation Act were credited
to the Finance Committee, which continues to violate its allocation
over all enforceable periods. In total, authorizing committees have
breached outlay limitations by more than $29 billion over the 2020
through 2029 period.
Table B provides the amount by which the Senate Committee on
Appropriations is below or exceeds the statutory spending limits. This
information is used to determine points of order related to the
spending caps found in sections 312 and 314 of the CBA. The table shows
that the Appropriations Committee is compliant with spending limits for
current the fiscal year. Those limits for regular discretionary
spending are $666.5 billion for accounts in the defense category and
$621.5 billion for accounts in the nondefense category of spending.
The 2018 budget resolution contained points of order limiting the use
of changes in mandatory programs, CHIMPs, in appropriations bills.
Table C, which tracks the CHIMP limit of $15 billion for 2020, shows
the Appropriations Committee has complied with the CHIMP limit for this
fiscal year.
Table D provides the amount of budget authority enacted for 2020 that
has been designated as either for an emergency or for overseas
contingency operations, OCO, pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A) of the
Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended.
Funding that receives either of these designations results in cap
adjustments to enforceable discretionary spending limits. There is no
limit on either emergency or overseas contingency operations spending;
however, any Senator may challenge the designation with a point of
order to strike the designation on the floor. The addition of $843
million in emergency-designated funds from P.L. 116-113 brings total
emergency and OCO spending to $88.9 billion for the 2020 appropriations
cycle.
In addition to the tables provided by Budget Committee Republican
staff, I am submitting CBO tables, which I will use to enforce budget
totals approved by Congress.
CBO provided a spending and revenue report for 2020, Table 1, which
helps enforce aggregate spending levels in budget resolutions under CBA
section 311. The current level is now in excess of allowable levels by
$15.4 billion for budget authority and $1.7 billion for outlays in
2020. Details on 2020 levels can be found in CBO's second table.
Current-law revenues are currently below enforceable levels for all
enforcement periods. Revenues are currently $34.4 billion, $150
billion, and $383.2 billion lower than assumed in the deemed budget
resolution for 2020, 2020 through 2024, and 2020 through 2029,
respectively.
Social Security spending levels are consistent with the budget
resolution's figures for 2020; however, Social Security revenue levels
are $15 million below assumed levels. CBO's report also provides
information needed to enforce the Senate pay-as-you-go, PAYGO, rule,
Table 3. This rule is enforced under section 4106 of the 2018 budget
resolution. The Senate PAYGO scorecard currently shows an enacted
deficit decrease of $984 million in 2020, but enacted deficit increases
of $361 million and $2.2 billion over the 2019-2024 and 2019-2029
periods, respectively. The deficit effects of the USMCA Implementation
Act do not include the amounts designated as supplemental
appropriations because those amounts are recorded as discretionary
spending, which is not recorded on the Senate's PAYGO scorecard.
This submission also includes a table tracking the Senate's budget
enforcement activity on the floor since the enforcement filing on
September 9, 2019. Since my last filing, one point of order was raised.
On January 16, 2020, Senator Toomey raised a point of order against the
emergency designations in the supplemental appropriations title of the
USMCA Implementation Act. That point of order was waived by a vote of
78-21.
All years in the accompanying tables are fiscal years.
I ask unanimous consent that the accompanying tables be printed in
the Record.
There being no objection, the material was ordered to be printed in
the Record, as follows:

U.S. Congress,
Congressional Budget Office,
Washington, DC, February 26, 2020.
Hon. Mike Enzi,
Chairman, Committee on the Budget,
U.S. Senate, Washington, DC.
Dear Mr. Chairman: The enclosed report shows the effects of
Congressional action on the fiscal year 2020 budget and is
current through February 21, 2020. This report is submitted
under section 308(b) and in aid of section 311 of the
Congressional Budget Act, as amended.
The estimates of budget authority, outlays, and revenues
are consistent with the allocations, aggregates, and other
budgetary levels printed in the Congressional Record on
September 9, 2019, pursuant to section 204 of the Bipartisan
Budget Act of 2019 (Public Law 116-37).
Since our last letter dated January 15, 2020, the Congress
has cleared, and the President has signed, the United States-
Mexico-Canada Agreement Implementation Act (P.L. 116-113).
That Act has significant effects on budget authority and
outlays in fiscal year 2020.
Sincerely,
Phillip L. Swagel,
Director.
Enclosure.

a Sections 1001-1004 of the 21st Century Cures Act (P.L. 114-255) require that certain funding provided for 2017
through 2026 to the Department of Health and Human Services--in particular the Food and Drug Administration
and the National Institutes of Health--be excluded from estimates for the purposes of the Balanced Budget and
Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 (Deficit Control Act) and the Congressional Budget and lmpoundment
Control Act of 1974 (Congressional Budget Act). Therefore, the amounts shown in this report do not include
$567 million in budget authority and $798 million in estimated outlays.
b For purposes of enforcing section 311 of the Congressional Budget Act in the Senate, the resolution, as
approved by the Senate, does not include budget authority, outlays, or revenues for off-budget amounts. As a
result, amounts in this current level report do not include those items.
c Section 124 of the Continuing Appropriations Act, 2020 (division A of P.L. 116-59), appropriated funding for
the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative (within the jurisdiction of the Subcommittee on Defense) and
designated those amounts as funding for overseas contingency operations. That provision took effect upon
enactment on September 27, 2019.
d In consultation with the House and Senate Committees on the Budget and the Office of Management and Budget,
rescissions of emergency funding that was not designated as an emergency requirement pursuant to section
251(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 shall not count for certain
budgetary enforcement purposes. These amounts, which are not included in the current level totals, are as

has the authority to revise the budgetary aggregates for the budgetary effects of certain revenue and spending
