     REVISIONS TO ALLOCATION FOR HOUSE COMMITTEE ON APPROPRIATIONS

  The Speaker pro tempore. Under a previous order of the House, the 
gentleman from Iowa (Mr. Nussle) is recognized for 5 minutes.
  Mr. NUSSLE. Mr. Speaker, section 3(a)(4) of House Resolution 5 
provides that House Concurrent Resolution 353 of the One Hundred 
Seventh Congress, as adopted by the House, shall have force and effect 
in the House as though the One Hundred Eight Congress has adopted a 
concurrent resolution on the budget. That paragraph also directs me to 
submit for printing in the Congressional Record: (1) the allocations 
contemplated by section 302(a) of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 
under a concurrent resolution on the budget; (2) accounts identified 
for advance appropriations, referred to in section 301(b) of House 
Concurrent Resolution 353 of the One Hundred Seventh Congress; and (3) 
an estimated unified surplus, referred to in section 211 of such 
concurrent resolution.
  The attached tables, which I submit for printing in the Congressional 
Record as directed, provide the required information.
