                         BUDGETARY ADJUSTMENTS

  Mr. CONRAD. Mr. President, I previously filed committee allocations 
and budgetary aggregates pursuant to section 106 of the Budget Control 
Act of 2011. Today, I am adjusting some of those levels, specifically 
the allocation to the Committee on Appropriations for fiscal year 2012 
and the budgetary aggregates for fiscal year 2012.
  Section 101 of the Budget Control Act allows for various adjustments 
to the statutory limits on discretionary spending, while section 106(d) 
allows the chairman of the Budget Committee to make revisions to 
allocations, aggregates, and levels consistent with those adjustments. 
The Committee on Appropriations reported three bills last week that are 
eligible for adjustments under the Budget Control Act. Consequently, I 
am making adjustments to the 2012 allocation to the Committee on 
Appropriations and to the 2012 aggregates for spending by a total of 
$117.885 billion in budget authority and $59.677 billion in outlays. 
Those adjustments reflect the sum of $302 million in budget authority 
and $136 million in outlays for funding designated for disaster relief 
and $117.583 billion in budget authority and $59.541 billion in outlays 
for funding designated as being for overseas contingency operations.
  I ask unanimous consent that the following tables detailing the 
changes to the allocation to the Committee on Appropriations and the 
budgetary aggregates be printed in the Record.
  There being no objection, the material was ordered to be printed in 
the Record, as follows:
