 REVISIONS TO THE ALLOCATIONS AND BUDGETARY AGGREGATES ESTABLISHED BY 
     THE CONCURRENT RESOLUTIONS ON THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 2006

  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, I am transmitting a revised table for the 
current level status report published in the Congressional Record on 
February 1, 2006. As published, the table that compares the current 
levels of discretionary appropriations for fiscal year 2006 with the 
``section 302(b)'' suballocations of discretionary budget authority and 
outlays among Appropriations subcommittees distributes the supplemental 
appropriations contained in the Defense appropriations act to the 
subcommittees that have jurisdiction over those matters. As revised, 
the table applies all supplemental appropriations to the subcommittee 
on Defense because they were contained in the regular Defense 
appropriations act rather than in a freestanding measure.
