  status report on current spending levels of on-budget spending and 
  revenues for fiscal years 2014, 2015 and the 10-year period fy 2015

                                         House of Representatives,


                                      Committee on the Budget,

                                    Washington, DC, June 17, 2014.
     Hon. John A. Boehner,
     Speaker, Office of the Speaker, U.S. Capitol,
     House of Representatives, Washington, DC.
       Mr. Ryan of Wisconsin. Mr. Speaker, to facilitate 
     application of sections 302 and 311 of the Congressional 
     Budget Act, I am transmitting an updated status report on the 
     current levels of on-budget spending and revenues for fiscal 
     years 2014, 2015, and for the 10-year period of fiscal year 
     2015 through fiscal year 2024. The report is current through 
     June 13, 2014. 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 current level has not changed since my last report 
     submitted in the Congressional Record on May 15, 2014; 
     therefore, that report should be consulted for the current 
     level through June 13, 2014. The current status of fiscal 
     year 2015 appropriations, however, has changed since my last 
     report. The term ``current status'' reflects budgetary levels 
     of discretionary appropriations acts that have either been 
     reported by the Committee on Appropriations to the House of 
     Representatives or passed by the House.
       Table 1 in this letter compares the current status of 
     fiscal year 2015 appropriations with the suballocations of 
     discretionary budget

     authority and outlays among Appropriations subcommittees 
     pursuant to section 302(b) of the Budget Act. The comparison 
     is 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 table also provides supplementary 
     information on spending in excess of the base discretionary 
     spending caps allowed under section 251(b) of the Budget 
     Control Act.
       In addition, letters from the Congressional Budget Office 
     are attached that summarize and compare the budget impact of 
     enacted legislation that occurred after adoption of the 
     budget resolution against the budget resolution aggregates in 
     force.
       If you have any questions, please contact Paul Restuccia at 
     (202) 226-7270.
           Sincerely,
                                                        Paul Ryan,
                                                         Chairman.

                                  Congressional Budget Office,

                                    Washington, DC, June 17, 2014.
     Hon. Paul Ryan,
     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 2014 budget and is 
     current through June 13, 2014. 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 
     H. Con. Res. 25, the Concurrent Resolution on the Budget for 
     Fiscal Year 2014, as approved by the House of Representatives 
     and subsequently revised.
       Since my last letter dated May 15, 2014, there has been no 
     Congressional action affecting budget authority, outlays, or 
     revenues for fiscal year 2014.
           Sincerely,
                                             Douglas W. Elmendorf.
       Enclosure.

a. Includes the following acts that affect budget authority, outlays, or revenues, and were cleared by the
  Congress during last session, but before adoption of the Concurrent Resolution on the Budget for Fiscal Year
  2014 (H. Con. Res. 25): an act to temporarily increase the borrowing authority of the FEMA for carrying out
  the National Flood Insurance Program (P.L. 113-1), the Disaster Relief Appropriations Act, 2013 (P.L. 113-2),
  the Pandemic and All-Hazards Preparedness Reauthorization Act of 2013 (FL. 113-5), the Consolidated and
  Further Continuing Appropriations Act, 2013 (Pt. 113-6), and the Reducing Flight Delays Act of 2013 (P.L. 113-
  9).
b. Relative to the House Current Level Report dated October 24, 2013, House Current Level has increased by $361
  million in 2014 because of assumptions related to the interest on the public debt that were revised pursuant
  to the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013 (Pt. 113-67).
c. Pursuant to section 314(d) of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, amounts designated as an emergency
  requirement pursuant to 251(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 shall
  not count for purposes of Title III and Title IV of the Congressional Budget Act. The amounts so designated
  for 2014, which are not included in the current level totals, are as follows:


 
 
 
                                                          Budget Authority       Outlays            Revenues
                                                        --------------------------------------------------------
Continuing Appropriations Act, 2014 (Sec. 155).........                  0                 50              n.a.
 
d. Sections 135 and 136 of the Continuing Appropriations Act, 2014 (Pi. 113-46) provide $636 million for fire
  suppression activities, available until expended. Section 146 of the act freezes the pay of Members of
  Congress, which is estimated to result in a reduction in spending of $1 million in 2014.
e. For purposes of enforcing section 311 of the Congressional Budget Act in the House, the resolution, as
  approved by the House of Representatives, does not include budget authority, outlays, or revenues for off-
  budget amounts. As a result, current level does not include these items.
f. Periodically, the House Committee on the Budget revises the totals in H. Con. Res. 25, pursuant to various
  provisions of the resolution:


 
 
 
                                                          Budget Authority       Outlays            Revenues

                                  Congressional Budget Office,

                                    Washington, DC, June 17, 2014.
     Hon. Paul Ryan,
     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 2015 budget and is 
     current through June 13, 2014. 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 April 
     29, 2014, pursuant to section 115 of the Bipartisan Budget 
     Act (Public Law 113-67).
       Since my last letter dated May 15, 2014, there has been no 
     Congressional action affecting budget authority, outlays, or 
     revenues for fiscal year 2015.
           Sincerely,
                                              Douglas W. Elmendorf
       Enclosure.
