  STATUS REPORT ON CURRENT SPENDING LEVELS OF ON-BUDGET SPENDING AND 
REVENUES FOR FY 2007 AND FY 2008 AND THE 5-YEAR PERIOD FY 2008 THROUGH 
                                FY 2012

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Under a previous order of the House, the 
gentleman from South Carolina (Mr. Spratt) is recognized for 5 minutes.
  Mr. SPRATT. Mr. Speaker, I am transmitting a status report on the 
current levels of on-budget spending and revenues for fiscal years 2007 
and 2008 and the five-year period of fiscal years 2008 through 2012. 
This report is necessary to facilitate the application of sections 302 
and 311 of the Congressional Budget Act. This status report is current 
through September 5, 2007.
  The term ``current level'' refers to the amounts of spending and 
revenues estimated for each fiscal year based on laws enacted or 
awaiting the President's signature.
  The first table in the report compares the current level of total 
budget authority, outlays, and revenues for the fiscal years 2007 and 
2008, and the five-year period of fiscal years 2008 through 2012 with 
the aggregate levels set by S. Con. Res. 21, the Concurrent Resolution 
on the Budget for Fiscal Year 2008. This, comparison is needed to 
enforce section 311(a) of the Budget Act, which creates a point of 
order against measures that would breach the budget resolution's 
aggregate levels. The table does not show budget authority and outlays 
for years after fiscal years 2007 and 2008 because appropriations for 
those years have not yet been considered.
  The second table compares the current levels of budget authority and 
outlays for spending by each authorizing committee with the section 
302(a) allocations made under S. Con. Res. 21 for fiscal years 2007 and 
2008 and fiscal years 2008 through 2012. This comparison is needed to 
enforce section 302(f) of the Budget Act, which creates a point of 
order against measures that would breach the section 302(a) allocation 
of new budget authority for the committee that reported the measure. It 
is also needed to implement section 311(c), which exempts committees 
that comply with their allocations from the point of order under 
section 311(a).
  The third table compares the current levels of discretionary 
appropriations for fiscal years 2007 and 2008 with the section 302(b) 
suballocations of discretionary budget authority and outlays among 
Appropriations subcommittees. The comparison is also needed to enforce 
section 302(f) of the Budget Act because the point of order under that 
section equally applies to measures that would breach the applicable 
section 302(b) suballocation.
  The fourth table gives the current level for fiscal years 2009 and 
2010 of accounts identified for advance appropriations under Section 
206 of S. Con. Res. 21. This list is needed to enforce the budget 
resolution, which prohibits advance appropriations that are: (i) not 
identified in the statement of managers or (ii) would cause the 
aggregate amount of such appropriations to exceed the level specified 
in the resolution.

   REPORT TO THE SPEAKER FROM THE COMMITTEE ON THE BUDGET--STATUS OF THE FISCAL YEAR 2008 CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET

  deployments and related activities), resolution assumptions are not included in the appropriate level.

                           budget authority 

       Enactment of measures providing any new budget authority 
     for FY 2007 (if not already included in the current level 
     estimate) would cause FY 2007 budget authority to exceed the 
     appropriate level set by S. Con. Res. 21.
       Enactment of measures providing new budget authority for FY 
     2008 in excess of $928,108,000,000 (if not already included 
     in the current level estimate) would cause FY 2008 budget 
     authority to exceed the appropriate level set by S. Con. Res. 
     21.


                                outlays

       Enactment of measures providing any new outlays for FY 2007 
     (if not already included in the current level estimate) would 
     cause FY 2007 outlays to exceed the appropriate level set by 
     S. Con. Res. 21.

       Enactment of measures providing new outlays for FY 2008 in 
     excess of $587,128,000,000 (if not already included in the 
     current level estimate) would cause FY 2008 outlays to exceed 
     the appropriate level set by S. Con. Res. 21.


                                revenues

       Enactment of measures resulting in revenue reduction for FY 
     2007 in excess of $4,176,000,000 (if not already included in 
     the current estimate) would cause FY 2007 revenue to fall 
     below the appropriate level set by S. Con. Res. 21.
       Enactment of measures resulting in revenue reduction for FY 
     2008 in excess of $34,577,000,000 (if not already included in 
     the current estimate) would cause FY 2008 revenue to fall 
     below the appropriate level set by S. Con. Res. 21.
       Enactment of measures resulting in revenue reduction for 
     the period of fiscal years 2008 through 2012 in excess of 
     $175,852,000,000 (if not already included in the current

                                  Congressional Budget Office,

                                Washington, DC, September 6, 2007.
     Hon. John M. Spratt, Jr.,
     Chairman, Committee on the Budget,
     House of Representatives, Washington, DC.
       Dear Mr. Chairman: The enclosed report shows the effects of 
     Congressional action on the fiscal year 2007 budget and is 
     current through September 5, 2007. 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 technical and economic assumptions of 
     S. Con. Res. 21, the Concurrent Resolution on the Budget for 
     Fiscal Year 2008, as approved by the Senate and the House of 
     Representatives.
       Pursuant to section 204(b) of S. Con. Res. 21, provisions 
     designated as emergency requirements are exempt from 
     enforcement of the budget resolution. As a result, the 
     enclosed current level report excludes these amounts (see 
     footnote 1 of the report).
       Since my last letter to you, dated June 11, 2007, the 
     Congress has cleared and the President has signed the 
     following acts that affect budget authority, outlays, or 
     revenues for fiscal year 2007: An act to extend the 
     authorities of the Andean Trade Preference Act until February 
     29, 2008 (P.L. 110-42); and a bill to provide for the 
     extension of Transitional Medical Assistance (TMA) and the 
     Abstinence Education Program through the end of fiscal year 
     2007, and for other purposes (P.L. 110-48).
           Sincerely,
                                                Robert A. Sunshine
                                  (For Peter R. Orszag, Director).

     4. S. Con. Res. 21 assumed $124,789 million in budget 
     authority and $31,926 million in outlays from emergency 
     supplemental appropriations. Such emergency amounts are 
     exempt from the enforcement of the budget resolution. Since 
     current level totals exclude the emergency requirements 
     enacted in P.L. 110-28 (see footnote 1 above), budget 
     authority and outlay totals specified in the budget 
     resolution have also been reduced (by the amounts assumed for 
     emergency supplemental appropriations) for purposes of 
     comparison.

     4. S. Con. Res. 21 assumed $606 million in budget authority 
     and $49,990 million in outlays from emergency supplemental 
     appropriations. Such emergency amounts are exempt from the 
     enforcement of the budget resolution. Since current level 
     totals exclude the emergency requirements enacted in P.L. 
     110-28 (see footnote 1 above), budget authority and outlay 
     totals specified in the budget resolution have also been 
     reduced (by the amounts assumed for emergency supplemental 
     appropriations) for purposes of comparison.
     5. Section 207(d)(1)(E) of S. Con. Res. 21 assumed $145,162 
     million in budget authority and $65,754 million in outlays 
     for overseas deployment and related activities. Pending 
     action by the House Committee on Appropriations, the House 
     Committee on the Budget has directed that these amounts be 
     excluded from the budget resolution aggregates in the current 
     level report.
