for emergencies. Clarifies that the strategic reserve fund 
could be used to finance Medicare reform and a prescription 
drug benefit. Clarifies that the reserve fund for fiscal year

totals in the budget resolution: the strategic reserve fund, 
the supplemental reserve fund for Medicare, and the reserve 
fund for fiscal year 2001. Clarifies that the Appropriations 
Committee is permitted to provide a specified level of advanced 
appropriations, which would be charged against the budget 
resolution in the fiscal year in which the appropriation first 
becomes available for obligation.

Part B--Amendments in the nature of a substitute

    1. DeFazio/Kucinich--Progressive Caucus Substitute. 
Balances the competing demands of the American public for tax 
relief, debt reduction, and adequate investment in critical 
programs. Makes much larger investments in education, including 
new school construction grants and full funding for Head Start; 
provides for Medicare prescription drug benefit; provides 
funding for election reform; and provides funding for 
affordable housing construction. Provides for a 20% reduction 
in the Defense budget. Eliminates the deductibility of 
excessive CEO compensation and of tobacco advertising and 
marketing. Reduces OPIC and the advanced Technology Program. 
Divides projected non-Social Security and non-Medicare 
surpluses into thirds: one-third for additional debt reduction, 
one-third for tax relief, and one-third for needed investments. 
If current projections hold, this framework will provide around 
$900 billion (including increased interest costs) for each of 
these areas. (debatable for 40 minutes)
    2. Stenholm/Moore--Blue Dog Substitute. Reserves half of 
the on-budget surplus over the next 5 years ($370 billion) for 
debt reduction and strengthening Social Security and Medicare. 
Devotes one-quarter of the on-budget surplus to tax cuts 
retroactive to 2001, and for a net tax cut of $180 billion from 
2001-2006. Saves 100% of the Social Security and Medicare trust 
fund surpluses for future retirees and prohibits those 
surpluses from being used for any other purpose. Provides for 
an immediate tax cut of $23 billion in FY 2001 (one-quarter of 
the FY 2001 surplus). Allocates 25% of the on-budget surplus 
over the next five years for investments in priorities 
identified by the President with bipartisan support in 
Congress. Enforces discretionary spending levels byestablishing 
realistic spending caps for the next 5 years that allow discretionary 
spending to increase by 5.4% in FY 2002 and an average of 3.0% a year 
from 2003-2006, for an average rate of growth of 3.5% over the entire 
five year period. Provides $92 billion over five years for meaningful 
prescription drug coverage through a Medicare defined benefit that is 
available to all seniors consistent with the plan being developed by 
the Blue Dog health care task force, which has a 10-year cost of $320 
billion. Provides a total of $57.1 billion more for agriculture 
mandatory spending. Increases spending by $20 billion in budget 
authority and $25 billion in outlays from FY 2002-2006. Increases 
funding for education programs by $23.5 billion above inflation over 
the next 5 years, $19 billion more than the Budget Committee 
resolution. (debatable for 40 minutes)
    3. Flake--Republican Study Committee Substitute. Provides 
$2.2 trillion in tax relief between 2002 and 2011 and an 
additional $93 billion in tax relief for the current fiscal 
year. Sets defense spending at $350 billion in FY 2002, $25 
billion more than the Committee Budget. Provides an additional 
$290 billion for defense. Total discretionary spending for FY 
2002 is 2.9% higher than last year. Spends $6.7 billion less in 
FY 2002 on discretionary programs than proposed by the 
Committee. Spends $150 billion less over 10 years than the 
Committee Budget for discretionary programs. Funds Agriculture, 
Veterans, and Social Security at the Committee recommended 
levels. Locks away 100% of the Social Security and Medicare 
surpluses and achieves the maximum level of public debt 
reduction. Requires that any prescription drug benefit be a 
part of an overall Medicare reform package that does not weaken 
the long-term solvency of the system by increasing baseline 
spending. Provides specific protection for Social Security 
reform legislation provided that the reforms include private 
individual accounts. Includes special provisions to ensure that 
the impact of a proposed tax measure on the economy and federal 
revenues is taken into account and to ensure that ``triggers'' 
are not added to any tax measure. Adds an additional provision 
to ensure that the House and Senate Appropriations Committees 
coordinate their 302(b) allocations. Includes Sense of House/
Congress language regarding unauthorized programs, achieving of 
clean financial audits by departments and agencies, adopting of 
legislation prohibiting the investment of surplus funds in 
private securities, and offsetting any FY '01 supplemental 
spending. (debatable for 40 minutes)

both the Medicare and Social Security programs and calls for 
giving the Medicare HI surplus the same off-budget status as 
the Social Security surplus and provides that Social Security 
and Medicare funds shall be used exclusively to fund benefits 
promised in current law. The substitute also divides the non-
Social Security, non-Medicare surplus into thirds with one-
third for tax relief costing $910 billion, one-third for 
priority investments including a prescription drug plan, and 
one-third for more debt reduction and new resources for 
Medicare and Social Security. (debatable for 50 minutes)

to exceed one-quarter of the increased surplus.
    (d) Application.--Any adjustments made pursuant to 
subsection (c) for any measure shall--
          (1) apply while that measure is under consideration;
          (2) take effect upon the enactment of that measure; 
        and
          (3) be published in the Congressional Record as soon 
        as practicable.

SEC. 10. APPLICATION AND EFFECT OF CHANGES IN ALLOCATIONS AND 
                    AGGREGATES.

    (a) Application.--Any adjustments of allocations and 
aggregates made pursuant to section 10, 11, or 12 for any 
measure shall--
          (1) apply while that measure is under consideration;
          (2) take effect upon the enactment of that measure; 
        and
          (3) be published in the Congressional Record as soon 
        as practicable.

allocations and aggregates resulting from these adjustments 
shall be considered for the purposes of the Congressional 
Budget Act of 1974 as allocations and aggregates contained in 
this resolution.
    (c) Budget Committee Determinations.--For purposes of this 
resolution--
          (1) the levels of new budget authority, outlays, 
        direct spending, new entitlement authority, revenues, 
        deficits, and surpluses for a fiscal year or period of 
        fiscal years shall be determined on the basis of 
        estimates made by the Committee on the Budget of the 
        House of Representatives or the Senate, as applicable; 
        and
          (2) such chairman, as applicable, may make any other 
        necessary adjustments to such levels to carry out this 
        resolution.

SEC. 11. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING RETIREMENT TRUST FUNDS.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
          (1) the Congress has made commitments to balance the 
        Federal budget without including the surpluses of trust 
        funds dedicated to particular purposes, such as the 
        Old-Age and Survivors Insurance Trust Fund, the 
        Disability Insurance Trust Fund, and the Hospital 
        Insurance Trust Fund;
          (2) the assets of the Department of Defense Military 
        Retirement Fund are used to finance the military 
        retirement and survivor benefit programs of the 
        Department of Defense;
          (3) the Department of Defense Military Retirement 
        Fund is facing a long-term unfunded actuarial liability 
        which will require all of the fund's current surplus to 
        pay the retirement and survivor benefits promised to 
        current and future members of the Armed Forces; and
          (4) the assets in the Department of Defense Military 
        Retirement Fund are included in the calculation of the 
        Federal budget surplus and account for approximately 
        $100,000,000,000 of the estimated Federal budget 
        surplus during the next 10 years.
    (b) Sense of the House.--It is the sense of the House of 
Representatives that any portion of the Federal budget surplus 
attributable to the Department of Defense Military Retirement 
Fund should be used exclusively for the financing of the 
military retirement and survivor benefit programs of the 
Department of Defense, and not forthe financing of tax policy 
changes, new Federal spending, or any other purpose.

SEC. 12. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING SURPLUS PROJECTIONS.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
          (1) disagreements on objective budget surplus 
        figures, in the annual budget and appropriations 
        process, have led to repetitive and time-consuming 
        budget votes, decreasing the time available for 
        consideration and oversight of federal programs, 
        undermining legislation to provide responsible tax 
        relief, and delaying enactment of legislation necessary 
        to fund the Government;
          (2) Congress and the Administration want to work 
        together to do everything possible to maintain a strong 
        and growing economy;
          (3) an agreement on baseline estimates will prevent 
        us from undermining the fiscal discipline that has 
        contributed to our economic strength and allow Congress 
        and the Administration to address their collective 
        priorities in a responsible, bipartisan manner:
          (3) a bipartisan majority of the Members of the House 
        of Representatives and the Senate have voted to protect 
        the social security and medicare trust funds;
          (4) empirical evidence and the Congressional Budget 
        Office agree that changes in economic conditions make 
        projections based on ten-year forecasts highly 
        uncertain;
          (5) the caps on discretionary spending are set to 
        expire at the end of fiscal year 2002 and no formal 
        rules will be in place to contain the growth in 
        discretionary spending;
          (6) baseline estimates typically overstate the size 
        of available surpluses by not assuming costs of 
        extending or changing policies that affect revenues, 
        such as expiring tax provisions and the cost of 
        indexing the alternative minimum tax (AMT) to protect 
        middle-class families from the AMT; and
          (7) current baseline estimates do not recognize 
        underlying demographic pressures that will incur future 
        obligations that may threaten projected surpluses 
        outside the ten-year budget window.
    (b) Sense of the House.--It is the sense of the House that 
future budget resolutions, as well as all tax and spending 
legislation, should maintain our commitment to fiscal 
responsibility by using agreed-upon surplus, tax, and spending 
figures derived from the following principles:
          (1) The size of the available surplus should exclude 
        social security and medicare trust funds.
          (2) The uncertainty of long-term economic forecasts 
        should be recognized.
          (3) Realistic assumptions for the growth in 
        discretionary spending should be accounted for.
          (4) The projected surplus should be adjusted to 
        recognize that scoring conventions do not incorporate 
        the costs of policies that Congress historically 
        reauthorizes.
          (5) There should be a recognition that the Federal 
        Government will incur sizable, future obligations due 
        to demographic pressures set to occur upon the 
        retirement of our baby-boom generation.

SEC. 13. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING BUDGET ENFORCEMENT.

    It is the sense of Congress that legislation should be 
enact legislation enforcing this resolution by--
          (1) establishing a plan to retire half of the 
        publicly held debt by the end of fiscal year 2006;
          (2) setting discretionary spending limits for budget 
        authority and outlays at the levels set forth in this 
        resolution for each of the next five years;
          (3) extending the pay as you go rules set forth in 
        Section 252 of the BBEDCA for the next ten years; and
          (4) establishing modified line item veto authority 
        requiring Congressinal votes on rescissions submitted 
        by the President and reducing the discretionary 
        spending limits to reflect savings from any rescissions 
        enacted into law.

SEC. 14. SENSE OF THE CONGRESS ON THE UNCERTAINTY OF BUDGET FORECASTS.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
          (1) the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) has not 
        produced ten year forecasts frequently enough to 
        produce meaningful averages of its ten-year projection 
        errors;
          (2) 71 percent of the projected surplus outside of 
        Social Security and Medicare occurs in the second half 
        of the ten-year projection, the period more subject to 
        error;
          (3) based on its own record, CBO concludes that the 
        estimated surpluses could be off in one direction or 
        the other, on average, by about $52 billion in 2001, 
        $120 billion in 2002, and $412 billion in 2006.
          (4) if this uncertainty continues to grow in years 
        six through ten at the same rate it has proven to grow 
        in years one through five, CBO's expected surplus in 
        2011, excluding Social Security and Medicare, would be 
        expressed as $524 billion, plus or minus $800 billion; 
        and
          (5) recognizing these uncertainties, the Chairman of 
        the Federal Reserve Board has warned that ``we need to 
        resist those policies that could readily resurrect the 
        deficits of the past and the fiscal imbalances that 
        followed in their wake'', while the Comptroller General 
        testified that ``no one should design tax or spending 
        policies pegged to the precise numbers in any 10-year 
        forecast'';
    (b) Sense of the Congress.--It is the sense of the Congress 
that--
          (1) this resolution recognizes the uncertainty of 10-
        year budget projections; and
          (2) a reserve fund, consisting of non-Social 
        Security, non-Medicare surpluses should be created to 
        ensure that the Social Security and Medicare trust 
        funds are protected in the event surplus projections do 
        not materialize; and (3) surplus funds materializing 
        from this reserve in calendar years six through ten 
        should be dedicated to new revenue reducing 
        initiatives.
                              ----------

    (b) Definitions.--As used in this section:
          (1) The term `emergency' means a situation (other 
        than a threat to national security) that--
                  (A) requires new budget authority (and 
                outlays flowing therefrom) to prevent the 
                imminent loss of life or property or in 
                response to the loss of life or property; and
                  (B) is unanticipated.
          (2) The term `unanticipated' means that the 
        underlying situation is--
                  (A) sudden, which means quickly coming into 
                being or not building up over time;

emergency, the report accompanying that bill or joint 
resolution (or the joint explanatory statement of managers in 
the case of a conference report on any such bill or joint 
resolution) shall explain the reasons such amount designated

                  (B) the increase for any one fiscal year does 
                not exceed the amount of surplus credited in 
                that fiscal year to the Federal Hospital 
                Insurance Trust Fund;

SEC. 15. SENSE OF THE HOUSE REGARDING THE ENFORCEMENT OF CLAUSE 2(A)(1) 
                    OF RULE XXI OF THE RULES OF THE HOUSE

    (a) Congress finds that:
          (1) Each year, the House Appropriations Committee 
        provides funding to hundreds of programs whose 
        authorization has expired or were never authorized by 
        an Act of Congress.
          (2) For Fiscal Year 2002, there were over 200 
        programs funded in 112 laws totaling over $112 billion 
        whose authorization had expired.
          (3) According to the Congressional Budget Office 
        (CBO), the largest amount for a single program is for 
        veterans medical care, which was last authorized in 
        1998 and totals over $20.3 billion. Funding for the 
        economic support and development assistance programs 
        was last authorized in 1987 by the International 
        Security and Development Cooperation Act of 1985 and 
        totals just over $7.8 billion in 2001 and much of the 
        appropriation provided for the Department of Justice in 
        2001, which totals over $16.8 billion, is unauthorized.
          (4) Rule XXI of the Rules of the House of 
        Representatives prohibits the funding of an 
        appropriation, which has not been authorized by law.
          (5) The House Rules Committee typically waives Rule 
        XXI when considering general appropriation bills.
          (6) The respective authorizing committees have not 
        made reauthorization of unauthorized programs a 
        priority.
          (7) The lack of congressional oversight over the 
        years, as far back in 1979, has led to the 
        deterioration of the power of the respective 
        authorizing Committees and thus the loss of 
        congressional oversight and fiscal responsibility, 
        which is a blow to the voters of America and their role 
        in the process.
          (8) The lack of congressional oversight over the 
        years has led to the shift of power away from the 
        Legislative Branch toward the Executive Branch and 
        unelected federal bureaucrats.
    (b) It is the sense of the Congress that:
          (1) The House of Representatives and the Senate give 
        priority to the authorization of expired programs, with 
        an emphasis on federal programs which have been expired 
        for more than five years.
          (2) Congress should pass, and the President should 
        sign into law, legislation to amend the Congressional 
        Budget Act of 1974 to require Congress to fund programs 
        that are currently unauthorized at 90 percent of prior 
        fiscal year levels.
          (3) Congress should pass, and the President should 
        sign into law, legislation to require the Congressional 
        Budget Office to prepare budget baselines based on the 
        figures where unauthorized programs are frozen and 
        funded at 90 percent of current levels.

SEC. 16. SENSE OF THE HOUSE REGARDING DEPARTMENT AND AGENCY AUDITS AND 
                    WASTE, FRAUD, AND ABUSE

    (a) Findings.--The House finds the following:
          (1) Each branch of government and every department 
        and agency has a fiduciary responsibility to ensure 
        that tax dollars are spent in the most efficient and 
        effective manner possible and to eliminate 
        mismanagement, waste, fraud, and abuse.
          (2) A minimal measure of whether a department or 
        agency is upholding its fiduciary responsibility is its 
        ability to pass an audit.
          (3) The most recent audits for Fiscal Year 1999 
        revealed that nine major agencies--the Departments of 
        Agriculture, Defense, Education, Housing and Urban 
        Development, Justice, and Treasury and the Agency for 
        International Development, Environmental Protection 
        Agency, and Office of Personnel Management--could not 
        provide clean financial statements.
          (4) Mismanagement, waste, fraud, and abuse cost 
        American taxpayers billions of dollars.
    (b) Sense of the House.--It is the sense of the House that 
no agency or department which has failed its most recent audit 
should receive an increase in their budget over the previous 
year, unless the availability of the increased funds is 
contingent upon the completion of a clean audit.

SEC. 17. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON THE USE OF FEDERAL SURPLUS FUNDS TO 
                    INVEST IN PRIVATE SECURITIES.

    It is the Sense of Congress that Congress should pass, and 
the President should sign into law, legislation codifying a 
general prohibition on the use of Federal surplus by the 
Secretary of the Treasury to make investments in securities 
(within the meaning of the securities laws of the United 
States) other than government securities.

SEC. 18. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON FULLY FUNDING SPECIAL EDUCATION.

    (a) Congress finds that--
          (1) all children deserve a quality education, 
        including children with disabilities;
          (2) the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act 
        provides that the Federal, State and local governments 
        are to share in the expense of educating children with 
        disabilities and commits the Federal Government to pay 
        up to 40 percent of the national average per pupil 
        expenditure for children with disabilities;
          (3) the high cost of educating children with 
        disabilities and the Federal Government's failure to 
        fully meet its obligation under the Individuals with 
        Disabilities Education Act stretches limited State and 
        local education funds, creating difficulty in providing 
        a quality education to all students, including children 
        with disabilities;
          (4) the current level of Federal funding to States 
        and localities under the Individuals with Disabilities 
        Education Act is contrary to the goal of ensuring that 
        children with disabilities receive a quality education;
          (5) the Federal Government has failed to fully fund 
        the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act and 
        appropriate 40 percent of the national average per 
        pupil expenditure per child with a disability as 
        required under the Act to assist States and localities 
        to educate children with disabilities;
          (6) the levels in function 500 (Education) for fiscal 
        year 2002 assume sufficient discretionary budget 
        authority to accommodate fiscal year 2002 
        appropriations for IDEA at least $10.6 billion above 
        such funding levels 2000, thus, fully funding the 
        Federal Government's commitment to special education;
          (7) the levels in function 500 (Education) to 
        accommodate the fiscal year 2001 appropriation for 
        fully funding IDEA may be reached by eliminating 
        inefficient, ineffective and unauthorized education 
        programs.
    (b) It is the sense of Congress that--
          (1) Congress and the President should increase 
        function 500 (Education) fiscal year 2002 funding for 
        programs under the Individuals with Disabilities 
        Education Act by at least $10.6 billion above fiscal 
        year 2001 appropriated levels, thus fully funding the 
        Federal Government's commitment;
          (2) Congress and the President can accomplish the 
        goal by eliminating inefficient, ineffective and 
        unauthorized education programs.

SEC. 19. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON FISCAL YEAR 2001 SUPPLEMENTAL SPENDING.

    It is the sense of Congress that, to the extent that any 
additional funding is required in fiscal year 2001 for the 
Department of Defense, for assistance for producers of program 
crops and specialty crops, and for other critical needs, such 
funding should be offset through rescissions in other Federal 
programs.

SEC. 3. MAJOR FUNCTIONAL CATEGORIES.

    The Congress determines and declares that the appropriate 
levels of new budget authority and budget outlays for fiscal 
years 2002 through 2011 for each major functional category are:
          (1) National Defense (050): This function includes 
        funding for the Department of Defense, the nuclear-
        weapons-related activities of the Department of Energy, 
        and miscellaneous national security activities in 
        various other agencies such as the Coast Guard and the 
        Federal Bureau of Investigation. The policy of this 
        resolution is that there shall be budget authority of 
        $327,200,000,000 and outlays of $320,500,000,000 in 
        fiscal year 2002, and budget authority of 
        $3,732,100,000,000 and outlays of $3,640,200,000,000 
        over fiscal years 2002 through 2011. This is greater 
        than the level of the Committee-passed resolution by 
        $2.6 billion of budget authority and $1.2 billion of 
        outlays in fiscal year 2002, and $48.1 billion of 
        budget authority and $28.9 billion of outlays over 
        fiscal years 2002 through 2011, better to address 
        priorities such as but not limited to: maintaining a 
        high level of military readiness; improving the quality 
        of life for military personnel and their families, 
        specifically including pay and housing, ensuring health 
        care for active-duty members, their families, and all 
        military retirees and their families; transforming our 
        military to meet post-Cold-War threats; and modernizing 
        conventional forces required to execute the national 
        military strategy.

        of United States exports abroad, United States payments 
        to international organizations, and United States 
        contributions to international peacekeeping efforts. 
        The policy of this resolution is that there shall be

        address priorities such as but not limited to: funding 
        energy research, stabilizing energy supplies, 
        addressing rising energy costs, increasing energy 
        production, conserving energy, using energy more 
        efficiently, protecting the environment, reducing 
        pollution through development of clean-coal 
        technologies, and assisting low-income families who are 
        hard-pressed by high home heating and cooling costs by 
        protecting programs such as the Weatherization 
        Assistance Program.

          (5) Natural Resources and Environment (300): This 
        function includes programs in a variety of Federal 
        agencies concerned with the development and management 
        of the Nation's land, water, and mineral resources, and 
        recreation and wildlife areas; and environmental 
        protection and enhancement. The policy of this 
        resolution is that there shall be budget authority of 
        $30,300,000,000 and outlays of $28,400,000,000 in 
        fiscal year 2002, and budget authority of 
        $348,400,000,000 and outlays of $338,300,000,000 over 
        fiscal years 2002 through 2011, which is $3.6 billion 
        of budget authority and $2.0 billion of outlays greater 
        than the Committee-passed resolution in 2002, and $59.0 
        billion of budget authority and $53.0 billion of 
        outlays greater than the Committee-passed resolution 
        over fiscal years 2002 through 2011, better to address 
        priorities such as but not limited to: full funding 
        levels for the Land Conservation, Preservation, and 
        Infrastructure Improvement Program, established last 
        year as part of the Interior Appropriations Act. In 
        establishing this program, Congress recognized land 
        conservation and related activities as critical 
        national priorities and provided a mechanism to 
        guarantee significantly increased funding. Congress 
        resolved to provide $1.76 billion for fiscal year 2002 
        and $12 billion from 2001-2006 for 
conservation,preservation, and recreation programs, and to set this 
funding aside in a new dedicated conservation budget category. The 
President's budget request would breach last year's agreement, and 
rewrite the funding levels of the conservation budget category, 
reducing the fiscal year 2002 level to $1.5 billion and reducing the 
six-year funding total by $2.7 billion. It is the policy of this 
resolution to maintain and fully fund the new budget category for 
conservation; to increase grants to states and local governments for 
improvements in our nation's safe drinking water and wastewater 
treatment infrastructure; to continue funding needed to reduce the 
threat of wildfires on Federal lands and to fight fires when they 
occur; to provide high-priority funding for Pacific Northwest salmon 
recovery; to fund grants for States and Tribes for administration of 
environmental programs, within the Department of Commerce; to continue 
current funding levels for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric 
Administration; to fund continued procurement of an advanced weather 
satellite system being developed jointly with the Department of 
Defense; to continue current funding levels for the Army Corps of 
Engineers and to increase funding to deal with the deferred maintenance 
backlog in the National Park system; to provide funds to protect 
wetlands and endangered species and their habitats on public and 
private lands.

          (6) Agriculture (350): This function includes 
        programs administered by the Department of Agriculture, 
        including such activities as agricultural research and 
        the stabilization of farm incomes through loans, 
        subsidies, and other payments to farmers. The policy of 
        this resolution is that there shall be budgetauthority 
of $27,300,000,000 and outlays of $25,600,000,000 in fiscal year 2002, 
and budget authority of $219,300,000,000 and outlays of 
$204,000,000,000 over fiscal years 2002 through 2011, which is $8.2 
billion of budget authority and $8.1 billion of outlays greater than 
the Committee-passed resolution in 2002, and $46.9 billion of budget 
authority and $46.6 billion of outlays greater than the Committee-
passed resolution over fiscal years 2002 through 2011, better to 
address priorities such as but not limited to: maintaining the 
inflation-adjusted funding for appropriated agriculture programs over 
ten years, including food safety protection, conservation, and vital 
agriculture research, which is cut in the Committee-passed resolution; 
increasing mandatory programs for agriculture by $8 billion in fiscal 
year 2002, $6 billion in fiscal year 2003, and $4 billion per year 
thereafter, reflecting spending levels consistent with recent needs; 
providing farmers with a more stable, dependable source of 
supplementary income assistance, rather than continued unpredictable 
ad-hoc assistance, minimizing the need for continued emergency 
assistance, and making spending assumptions more realistic, in 
preparation for the upcoming reauthorization of the farm program.

        authority and $104 billion of outlays over fiscal years 
        2002 through 2011, better to address priorities such as 
        but not limited to: reducing class sizes by recruiting 
        and adequately compensating qualified teachers; 
        improving teacher quality through professional 
        development programs, especially for math and science 
        teachers; facilitating school renovation by providing 
        grants and subsidizing interest-free loans to local 
        school districts; ensuring the effectiveness of all of 
        our schools through increased funding of the title I 
        program; enhancing the performance of our schools 
        through investments in technology, school counselors, 
        and after-school programs; expanding the Federal 
        commitment to special education under the Individuals 
        with Disabilities Education Act by no less than $1.5 
        billion per year, expanding access to higher education 
        by sufficiently funding higher education programs, 
        including an increase in the maximum Pell Grant award; 
        sustaining the strength of the Nation's vocational 
        rehabilitation programs, ensuring that each year more 
        of those children eligible for Head Start are enrolled 
        in the program and are well prepared for elementary 
        education, sustaining the competitiveness of our 
        economy through sufficient funding for workforce 
        investment programs, and strengthening the safety net 
        provided to our nation s most vulnerable people 
        through, for example, increased funding levels for 
        child welfare programs and the Social Services Block 
        Grant (title XX).

          (11) Health (550): This function includes Federal 
        spending for health care services, disease prevention, 
        consumer and occupational safety, health-related 
        research, and similar activities. The largest component 
        of spending is the Federal/State Medicaid program, 
        which pays for health services for some low-income 
        women, children, and elderly people, as well as people 
        with disabilities. The policy of this resolution is 
        that there shall be budget authority of 
        $194,300,000,000 and outlays of $190,200,000,000 in 
        fiscal year 2002, and budget authority of 
        $2,898,600,000,000 and outlays of $2,873,100,000,000 
        over fiscal years 2002 through 2011. This is greater 
        than the level of the Committee-passed resolution by 
        $1.7 billion of discretionary budget authority and $400 
        million of discretionary outlays in fiscal year 2002, 
        and $4.0 billion of discretionary budget authority and 
        $2.6 billion of discretionary outlays over fiscal years 
        2002 through 2011, better to address priorities such as 
        but not limited to: doubling funding for the National 
        Institutes of Health relative to the 1998 level by 
        2003, maintaining inflation-adjusted funding for other 
        discretionary health programs, expanding access to 
        health insurance for working families by allowing 
        states to cover families under the Medicaid or State 
        Children's Health Insurance Program, and allowing a 
        buy-in to Medicaid for families with special-needs 
        children if family income is under 300 percent of 
        poverty, increasing funding for community health 
        centers, providing low-income Medicare beneficiaries 
        protection against premiums and cost-sharing 
        requirements of a Medicare prescription drug benefit, 
        and restoring Medicaid benefits to certain legal 
        immigrants.

                  Fiscal year 2010:
                          (A) New budget authority,

                          (B) Outlays, $365,100,000,000.
                  Fiscal year 2011:
                          (A) New budget authority,

                          (B) Outlays, $393,200,000,000.
          (12) Medicare (570): This function is comprised of 
        spending for Medicare, the Federal health insurance 
        program for elderly and eligible disabled people. 
        Medicare consists of two parts, each tied to a trust 
        fund. Hospital Insurance (HI, also known as Part A) 
        reimburses providers for inpatient care that 
        beneficiaries receive in hospitals, as well as care at 
        skilled nursing facilities, home health care related to 
        a hospital stay, and hospice services. Supplementary 
        Medical Insurance (Part B) pays for physicians' 
        services, outpatient services at hospitals, home health 
        care, and other services. The policy of this resolution 
        is that there shall be budget authority of 
        $229,200,000,000 and outlays of $229,100,000,000 in 
        fiscal year 2002, and budget authority of 
        $3,487,100,000,000 and outlays of $3,486,800,000,000 
        over fiscal years 2002 through 2011. This is greater 
        than the level of the Committee-passed resolution by 
        $100 million of budget authority in fiscal year 2002, 
        and $179.5 billion of budget authority and $179.2 
        billion of outlays over fiscal years 2002 through 2011, 
        better to address priorities such as but not limited 
        to: extending the solvency of the Medicare HI (Part A) 
        Trust Fund, by transferring surplus funds from outside 
        the program to the HI Trust Fund, creating a voluntary 
        prescription drug benefit within the Medicare program 
        for all Medicare beneficiaries, and providing $330 
        billion to fund it, and taking the Medicare HI (Part A) 
        Trust Fund off-budget to ensure that it is used solely 
        for current-law Medicare benefits.
                  Fiscal year 2002:
                          (A) New budget authority, 
                        $229,200,000,000.
                          (B) Outlays, $229,100,000,000.
                  Fiscal year 2003:
                          (A) New budget authority, 
                        $257,500,000,000.
                          (B) Outlays, $257,300,000,000.
                  Fiscal year 2004:
                          (A) New budget authority, 
                        $281,100,000,000.
                          (B) Outlays, $281,300,000,000.

                          (B) Outlays, $307,200,000,000.
                  Fiscal year 2006:
                          (A) New budget authority, 
                        $324,200,000,000.
                          (B) Outlays, $324,000,000,000.
                  Fiscal year 2007:
                          (A) New budget authority, 
                        $353,900,000,000.
                          (B) Outlays, $354,100,000,000.
                  Fiscal year 2008:
                          (A) New budget authority, 
                        $382,700,000,000.
                          (B) Outlays, $382,600,000,000.
                  Fiscal year 2009:
                          (A) New budget authority, 
                        $414,600,000,000.
                          (B) Outlays, $414,300,000,000.
                  Fiscal year 2010:
                          (A) New budget authority, 
                        $449,200,000,000.
                          (B) Outlays, $449,500,000,000.
                  Fiscal year 2011:
                          (A) New budget authority, 
                        $487,400,000,000.
                          (B) Outlays, $487,400,000,000.
          (13) Income Security (600): This function covers 
        Federal income-security programs that provide cash or 
        in-kind benefits to individuals. Some of those benefits 
        (such as food stamps, Supplemental Security Income, 
        Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, housing, and 
        the earned income tax credit) are means-tested, whereas 
        others (such as unemployment compensation and Civil 
        Service Retirement and Disability payments) do not 
        depend on a person's income or assets. The policy of 
        this resolution is that there shall be budget authority 
        of $273,800,000,000 and outlays of $272,000,000,000 in 
        fiscal year 2002, and budget authority of 
        $3,230,300,000,000 and outlays of $3,217,300,000,000 
        over fiscal years 2002 through 2011. This is greater 
        than the level of the Committee-passed resolution by 
        $2.3 billion of budget authority (but $100 million less 
        of outlays) in fiscal year 2002, and $17.6 billion of 
        budget authority and $15.7 billion of outlays over 
        fiscal years 2002 through 2011, better to address 
        priorities such as but not limited to: enhancing 
        America's nutritional safety net through improvements 
        that facilitate access to the Food Stamp program, 
        providing increased funding for the Low-Income Home 
        Energy Assistance program (LIHEAP) and emergency funds 
        in response to escalating energy prices; ensuring that 
        Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, 
        Infants and children (WIC) funds supplying nutritional 
        benefits and counseling for pregnant women, infants and 
        children increase with inflation; giving states more 
        resources to support families moving from welfare to 
        work through child care and critical TANF assistance 
        programs; addressing the Nation's affordable housing 
        crisis by maintaining public housing Capital Fund and 
        Drug Elimination programs at inflation-adjusted levels; 
        renewing all expiring section 8 contracts, maintaining 
        adequate section 8 reserves, and adding 84,000 new 
        section 8 housing assistance vouchers and maintaining 
        them for ten years, increasing housing resources for 
        the low-income elderly in preparation for the aging of 
        the baby boom generation, maintaining Congress' 
        commitment to the flexible HOME Investment Partnership 
        Program, ensuring that grants to state and local 
        governments for affordable rental housing and home 
        ownership activities at least keep pace with inflation, 
        as opposed to the Committee-passed resolution which 
        diminishes HOME program grants through new set-asides, 
        and restoring SSI and food stamp benefits to certain 
        legal immigrants.

          (14) Social Security (650): This function is 
        comprised of spending for the Old-Age, Survivors, and 
        Disability Insurance programs, commonly known as Social 
        Security. Social Security consists of two parts, each 
        tied to a trust fund. The Old-Age and Survivors 
        Insurance (OASI) program provides monthly benefits to 
        eligible retired workers and their families and 
        survivors. The Disability Insurance (DI) program 
        provides monthly benefits to eligible disabled workers 
        and their families. The policy of this resolution is 
        that there shall be budget authority of $11,000,000,000 
        and outlays of $11,000,000,000 in fiscal year 2002, and 
        budget authority of $150,900,000,000 and outlays of 
        $150,900,000,000 over fiscal years 2002 through 2011. 
        This is greater than the level of the Committee-passed 
        resolution by $100 billion of discretionary budget 
        authority in fiscal year 2002, and $3.1 billion of 
        discretionary budget authority and $2.7 billion of 
        discretionary outlays over fiscal years 2002 through 
        2011, better to address priorities such as but not 
        limited to: protecting the Social Security Trust Fund 
        from any diversion of its surplus, to extend the 
        solvency of this essential program for today's retirees 
        and for future generations, and maintaining the 
        inflation-adjusted level of appropriations for social 
        security administrative costs, with $3 billion more in 
        funding than provided in the Committee-approved 
        Republican Budget Resolution, thereby protecting the 
        level of service for all elderly, disabled, and 
        survivor beneficiaries.
                  Fiscal year 2002:
                          (A) New budget authority, 
                        $11,000,000,000.

                  Fiscal year 2011:
                          (A) New budget authority, 
                        $20,400,000,000.
                          (B) Outlays, $20,400,000,000.
          (15) Veterans Benefits and Services (700): This 
        function covers programs that offer benefits to 
        military veterans. Those programs, most of which are 
        run by the Department of Veterans Affairs, provide 
        health care, disability compensation, pensions, life 
        insurance, education and training, and guaranteed 
        loans. The policy of this resolution is that there 
        shall be budget authority of $52,400,000,000 and 
        outlays of $51,700,000,000 in fiscal year 2002, and 
        budget authority of $606,400,000,000 and outlays of 
        $602,000,000,000 over fiscal years 2002 through 2011. 
        This is greater than the level of the Committee-passed 
        resolution by $100 million of budget authority and $100 
        million of outlays in fiscal year 2002, and $12.4 
        billion of budget authority and $11.9 billion of 
        outlays over fiscal years 2002 through 2011, better to 
        address priorities such as but not limited to: 
        increasing funding for appropriated veterans programs 
        by $100 million for 2002 over the levels in the 
        Committee-approved Republican resolution, to meet the 
        needs of the VHA, and to increase Department of 
        Veterans Affairs personnel and technology for claims 
        processing and administration, reaffirming our 
        commitment to veterans by adequately funding the 
        Department of Veterans Affairs; avoiding shifts from 
        one program to another to meet current crises; ensuring 
        that veterans are able to receive, in a timely manner, 
        the benefits Congress intended for them; and increasing 
        mandatory programs for veterans by raising the 
        education benefit in the Montgomery GI bill from $650 
        to $1100, and enhancing certain burial benefits as 
        provided in H.R. 801.

          (16) Administration of Justice (750): This function 
        covers programs that provide judicial services, law 
        enforcement, and prison operation. The Federal Bureau 
        of Investigation, the Customs Service, the Drug 
        Enforcement Administration, and the Federal court 
        system are all supported under this function. The 
        policy of this resolution is that there shall be budget 
        authority of $32,400,000,000 and outlays of 
        $31,400,000,000 in fiscal year 2002, and budget 
        authority of $378,400,000,000 and outlays of 
        $374,700,000,000 over fiscal years 2002 through 2011. 
        This is greater than the level of the Committee-passed 
        resolution (which cuts funding for the Justice 
        Department in nominal dollars) by $1.5 billion of 
        budget authority and $1.1 billion of outlays in fiscal 
        year 2002, and $19.1 billion of budget authority and 
        $18 billion of outlays over fiscal years 2002 through 
        2011, better to address priorities such as but not 
        limited to maintaining inflation-adjusted levels of 
        appropriations for every program, specifically 
        including: the Community Oriented Policing Services 
        (COPS) program, which provides funds to local 
        communities to hire additional community police 
        officers; all of the Department of Justice's law 
        enforcement and legal divisions, the Treasury 
        Department's United States Customs Service; the 
        Treasury Department's Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and 
        Firearms (ATF); and State and local law enforcement 
        assistance.

          (17) General Government (800): This function covers 
        the central management and policy responsibilities of 
        both the legislative and executive branches of the 
        Federal Government. Among the agencies it funds are the 
        General Services Administration and the Internal 
        Revenue Service. The policy of this resolution is that 
        there shall be budget authority of $17,200,000,000 and 
        outlays of $16,800,000,000 in fiscal year 2002, and 
        budget authority of $177,100,000,000 and outlays of 
        $174,600,000,000 over fiscal years 2002 through 2011. 
        This is greater than the level of the Committee-passed 
        resolution by $500 million of budget authority and $500 
        million of outlays in fiscal year 2002, and $600 
        million of budget authority and $1.2 billion of outlays 
        over fiscal years 2002 through 2011, better to address 
        priorities such as but not limited to maintaining 
        inflation-adjusted levels of appropriations, above the 
        level of the Committee-approved Republican Budget

          (18) Net Interest (900): This function includes the 
        debt-servicing obligation of the Federal Government for 
        the sum of all of its past budget deficits. The policy

        authority of $2,311,000,000,000 and outlays of 
        $2,311,000,000,000 over fiscal years 2002 through 2011, 
        which is $71.6 billion of budget authority and $71.6 
        billion of outlays less than the Committee-passed 
        resolution over fiscal years 2002 through 2011, to 
        address priorities such as but not limited to: the most 
        rapid retirement of debt possible, faster than under 
        the President's budget, and faster still than under the 
        Committee-approved Republican Budget Resolution, and 
        the consequent maximum reduction in the Federal 
        Government's net interest costs, to strengthen the 
        budget and the economy for the demographic challenges 
        ahead.

          (19) Allowances (920): This function may include 
        amounts to reflect proposals that would affect multiple

        there shall be budget authority of $5,000,000,000 and 
        outlays of $1,800,000,000 in fiscal year 2002, and 
        budget authority of $50,000,000,000 and outlays of 
        $45,500,000,000 over fiscal years 2002 through 2011, to 
        address priorities such as but not limited to a reserve

          (20) Undistributed Offsetting Receipts (950): This 
        function comprises major offsetting receipt items that

        of the United States at the same time, and in the same

        include the provision contained in the President's 
        budget that assumes the opening of the Arctic National 
        Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) for oil drilling. The budget 
        resolution does not extend a provision included in the 
        February Blueprint and the Committee-approved 
        Republican Budget Resolution that increases agency 
        contributions for employees covered by the civil 
        service retirement system.

        and without exception:
                  (A) 100 percent of the Social Security

                  (C) the Treasury shall use the proceeds of 
                sales of special non-marketable bonds to the 
                Social Security and Medicare HI trust funds

        solvency.--Not later than June 8, 2001, the House 
        Committee on Ways and Means shall submit legislation to 
        the House Committee on the Budget providing for the 
        annual remittance from the General Fund of the Treasury 
        to the Hospital Insurance (Medicare Part A) Trust Fund 
        and to the Old Age and Survivors Insurance Trust Fund 
        of an amount equal to one-third of the projected on-
        budget, that is non-Social Security, non-Medicare HI, 
        surplus, currently projected to be $910 billion from 
        fiscal year 2002 through fiscal year 2011. Such 
        remittances shall be equally divided between the two 
        trust funds, with the objective of extending their 
        solvency to at least 2040 and 2050, respectively. Such 
        remittances shall be derived exclusively from the on-
        budget, that is non-Social Security, non-Medicare HI, 
        surplus over that ten-year period.
    (c) Submissions by the house committee on ways and means 
for responsible tax relief.--
          (1) Submission.--Not later than June 8, 2001, the 
        House Committee on Ways and Means shall submit 
        legislation to the House Committee onthe Budget 
reducing revenues in amounts which, when combined with the debt service 
costs of tax adjustments made in fiscal year 2001, does not exceed $34 
billion in fiscal year 2002, $300 billion for fiscal years 2002 through 
2006, and $737 billion for fiscal years 2002 through 2011.
          (2) Policy assumptions.--Within the framework of this 
        budget resolution, which provides for the extension of 
        the solvency of the Social Security and Medicare trust 
        funds, the policy of this resolution is that there 
        shall be net tax relief, which when combined with the 
        debt service costs of tax adjustments made in fiscal 
        year 2001, does not exceed $34 billion in fiscal year 
        2002, $300 billion in fiscal years 2002 through 2006, 
        or $737 billion in fiscal years 2002 through 2011. Such 
        tax relief shall include but not be limited to 
        provisions that--
                  (A) create a new income tax bracket, taxing 
                income at a rate below the current 15 percent 
                rate;
                  (B) mitigate the marriage penalty including 
                that created through the earned income credit;
                  (C) increase the earned income credit for 
                working families with children;
                  (D) eliminate estate taxes on all but the 
                very largest estates; and
                  (E) grant other tax relief, such as 
                modification of the individual alternative 
                minimum tax and enhancement of tax incentives 
                for retirement savings.
          (3) Flexibility for the committee on ways and 
        means.--If the reconciliation submission by the 
        Committee on Ways and Means alters the Internal Revenue 
        Code of 1986 in ways that are scored by the Joint 
        Committee on Taxation as outlay changes, as through 
        legislation affecting refundable tax credits, the 
        submission shall be considered to meet the revenue 
        requirements of the reconciliation directive if the net 
        cost of the revenue and outlay changes does not exceed 
        the revenue amount set forth for that committee in 
        paragraph 1 of this subsection. Upon the submission of 
        such legislation, the chairman of the House Committee 
        on the Budget shall adjust the budget aggregates in 
        this resolution and allocations made under this 
        resolution accordingly.
    (d) Submissions by House Committees on Energy and Commerce

        Committee on Veterans Affairs shall increase outlays by 
        not more than the following: $264,000,000 for fiscal 
        year 2002, $3,205,000,000 for the period fiscal year 
        2002 through 2006, and $7,087,000,000 for the period of

        for fiscal year 2002, $9,411,000,000 for the period

SEC. 5. TREATMENT OF OASDI ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES.

    In the House, in addition to amounts in this resolution, 
allocations to the Committee on Appropriations shall include 
the following amounts, which are assumed to be used for the 
Administrative expenses of the Social Security Administration, 
and, for purposes of section 302(f)(1) of the Congressional 
Budget Act of 1974, those allocations shall be considered to be 
allocations made under section 302(a) of that Act: 
$3,597,000,000 in new budget authority and $3,542,000,000 in 
outlays.

SEC. 6. RESERVE FUND FOR SPECIAL EDUCATION.

    In the House, whenever the Committee on Appropriations 
reports a bill or joint resolution, or an amendment thereto is 
offered or a conference report thereon is submitted, that 
provides new budget authority for any fiscal year from 2002 
through 2011 of at least the level appropriated in the previous 
fiscal year adjusted for inflation for programs authorized 
under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), 
part B grants to States, the Committee on the Budget shall 
increase the appropriate allocations of new budget authority 
and outlays for that fiscal year by $1,500,000,000 (and adjust 
any other appropriate levels), an amount to be used solely for 
programs authorized under the Individuals with Disabilities 
Education Act (IDEA), part B grants to States. However, no such 
adjustment shall exceed the amount by which the bill exceeds 
the applicable allocation.

SEC. 7. FUNDS ALREADY APPROPRIATED FOR ARREARAGES TO THE UNITED 
                    NATIONS.

    For purposes of enforcing the allocations in this 
resolution, any outlays scored from authorizing legislation 
releasing previously appropriated funding for the United 
Nations is assumed not to be new outlays.

SEC. 8. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING THE STABILIZATION OF CERTAIN 
                    FEDERAL PAYMENTS TO STATES, COUNTIES, AND BOROUGHS.

    It is the sense of Congress that Federal revenue-sharing 
payments to States, counties, and boroughs pursuant to the Act 
of May 23, 1908 (35 Stat. 260; 16 U.S.C. 500),the Act of March 
1, 1911 (36 Stat. 963; 16 U.S.C. 500), the Act of August 28, 1937 
(chapter 876; 50 Stat. 875; 43 U.S.C. 1181f), the Act of May 24, 1939 
(chapter 144; 53 Stat. 753; 43 U.S.C. 1181f-1 et seq.), and sections 
13982 and 13983 of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 
(Public Law 103-66; 16 U.S.C. 500 note; 43 U.S.C. 1181f note) should be 
stabilized and maintained for the long-term benefit of schools, roads, 
public services, and communities, and that providing such permanent, 
stable funding is a priority of the 106th Congress.

SEC. 9. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON THE IMPORTANCE OF THE NATIONAL SCIENCE 
                    FOUNDATION.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds that--
          (1) the levels in this concurrent budget resolution 
        for function 250 (General Science, Space, and 
        Technology) for fiscal year 2002 are $300,000,000 above 
        the level in the House Republican budget resolution and 
        over ten years (fiscal years 2002 to 2011), the levels 
        in this concurrent resolution are $3,100,000,000 above 
        the levels in the House Republican budget resolution;
          (2) the National Science Foundation is the largest 
        supporter of basic research in the Federal Government;
          (3) the National Science Foundation is the second 
        largest supporter of university-based research;
          (4) research conducted by the grantees of the 
        National Science Foundation has led to innovations that 
        have dramatically improved the quality of life of all 
        Americans;
          (5) because basic research funded by the National 
        Science Foundation is high-risk, cutting edge, 
        fundamental, and may not produce tangible benefits for 
        over a decade, the Federal Government is uniquely 
        suited to support such research; and
          (6) the National Science Foundation's focus on peer-
        reviewed, merit-based grants represents a model for 
        research agencies across the Federal Government.
    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that 
the function 250 levels assume an increase for National Science 
Foundation that is sufficient for it to continue its critical 
role in funding basic research, cultivating America's 
intellectual infrastructure, and leading to innovations that 
assure the Nation's economic future.

SEC. 10. FEDERAL EMPLOYEE PAY.

    (a) Findings.--The House of Representatives finds the 
following:
          (1) Members of the uniformed services and civilian 
        employees of the United States make significant 
        contributions to the general welfare of the Nation.
          (2) Increases in the pay of members of the uniformed 
        services and of civilian employees of the United States 
        have not kept pace with increases in the overall pay 
        levels of workers in the private sector, so that there 
        now exists--
                  (A) a 32 percent gap between compensation 
                levels of Federal civilian employees and 
                compensation levels of private sector workers; 
                and
                  (B) an estimated 10 percent gap between 
                compensation levels of members of the uniformed 
                services and compensation levels of private 
                sector workers.
          (3) The President's budget proposal for fiscal year 
        2002 includes a 4.6 percent pay raise for military 
        personnel.
          (4) The Office of Management and Budget has requested 
        that Federal agencies plan their fiscal year 2002 
        budgets with a 3.6 percent pay raise for civilian 
        Federal employees.
          (5) In almost every year during the past 2 decades, 
        there have been equal adjustments in the compensation 
        of members of the uniformed services and the 
        compensation of civilian employees of the United 
        States.
    (b) Sense of the House of Representatives.--It is the sense 
of the House of Representatives that rates of compensation for 
civilian employees of the United States should be adjusted at 
the same time, and in the same proportion, as are rates of 
compensation for members of the uniformed services.

SEC. 11. ASSET BUILDING FOR THE WORKING POOR.

    (a) Findings.--Congress find the following:
          (1) For the vast majority of United States 
        households, the pathway to the economic mainstream and 
        financial security is not through spending and 
        consumption, but through savings, investing, and the 
        accumulation of assets.
          (2) One-third of all Americans have no assets 
        available for investment and another 20 percent have 
        only negligible assets. The situation is even more 
        serious for minority households; for example, 60 
        percent of African-American households have no or 
        negative financial assets.
          (3) Nearly 50 percent of all children in America live 
        in households that have no assets available for 
        investment, including 40 percent of Caucasian children 
        and 73 percent of African-American children.
          (4) Up to 20 percent of all United States households 
        do not deposit their savings in financial institutions 
        and, thus, do not have access to the basic financial 
        tools that make asset accumulation possible.
          (5) Public policy can have either a positive or a 
        negative impact on asset accumulation. Traditional 
        public assistance programs based on income and 
        consumption have rarely been successful in supporting 
        the transition to economic self-sufficiency. Tax 
        policy, through $288,000,000,000 in annual tax 
        incentives, has helped lay the foundation for the great 
        middle class.
          (6) Lacking an income tax liability, low-income 
        working families cannot take advantage of asset 
        development incentives available through the Federal 
        tax code.
          (7) Individual Development Accounts have proven to be 
        successful in helping low-income working families save 
        and accumulate assets. Individual Development Accounts 
        have been used to purchase long-term, high-return 
        assets, including homes, postsecondary education and 
        training, and small business.
    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that 
the Federal tax code should support a significant expansion of 
Individual Development Accounts so that millions of low-income, 
working families can save, build assets, and move their lives 
forward; thus, making positive contributions to the economic 
and social well-being of the United States, as well as to its 
future.

SEC. 12. FEDERAL FIRE PREVENTION ASSISTANCE.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
          (1) Increased demands on firefighting and emergency 
        medical personnel have made it difficult for local 
        governments to adequately fund necessary fire safety 
        precautions.
          (2) The Government has an obligation to protect the 
        health and safety of the firefighting personnel of the 
        United States and to ensure that they have the 
        financial resources to protect the public.
          (3) The high rates in the United States of death, 
        injury, and property damage caused by fires 
        demonstrates a critical need for Federal investment in 
        support of firefighting personnel.
    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that 
the Government should support the core operations of the 
Federal Emergency Management Agency by providing needed fire 
grant programs to assist our firefighters and rescue personnel 
as they respond to more than 17,000,000 emergency calls 
annually. To accomplish this task, Congress supports 
preservation of the Assistance to Firefighters grant program. 
Continued support of the Assistance to Firefighters grant 
program will enable local firefighters to adequately protect 
the lives of countless Americans put at risk by insufficient 
fire protection.

SEC. 13. FUNDING FOR GRADUATE MEDICAL EDUCATION AT CHILDREN'S TEACHING 
                    HOSPITALS

    It is the sense of Congress that:
          (1) Function 550 of the President's budget should 
        include an appropriate level of funding for graduate 
        medical education conducted at independent children's 
        teaching hospitals in order to ensure access to care by 
        millions of children nationwide.
          (2) An emphasis should be placed on the role played 
        by community health centers in underserved rural and 
        urban communities. An increase in funding for community 
        health centers should not come at the expense of the 
        Community Access Program. Both programs should be 
        funded adequately, with the intention of doubling 
        funding for increased capacity for community health 
        centers, in addition to keeping the Community Access 
        Program operational.
          (3) The medicare program should emphasize such 
        preventive medical services as those provided by vision 
        rehabilitation professionals in saving Government funds 
        and preserving the independence of a growing number of 
        seniors in the coming years.
          (4) Funding under function 550 should also reflect 
        the importance of the Ryan White CARE Act to persons 
        afflicted with HIV/AIDS. Funds allocated from the CARE 
        Act serve as the safety net for thousands of low-income 
        people living with HIV/AIDS who reside in metropolitan 
        areas but are ineligible for entitlement programs. 
        Moreover, the CARE Act provides critically needed 
        grants directly to existing community-based clinics and 
        public health providers to develop and deliver both 
        early and ongoing comprehensive services to persons 
        with HIV/AIDS.

SEC. 14. SENSE OF THE CONGRESS ON PRESERVING HEALTH CARE SERVICES AND 
                    PROFESSIONAL HEALTH CARE TRAINING.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds that--
          (1) it recognizes the need to maintain the national 
        network devoted to providing health care services and 
        supports its continuation;
          (2) without adequate resources devoted to research 
        and development of new technologies, modern medicine 
        cannot meet the challenges of the new century; and
          (3) without adequate resources devoted to the 
        recruitment and training of skilled caregivers in all 
        setting, the latest technologies may never benefit the 
        American people.
    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of the Congress 
that to preserve funding for vital health care services, 
address shortages in health care professions, such as nursing, 
as well as health care research, the Congress should support 
fully funding these programs, specifically including health 
care professions training, and other health-related programs, 
at a level sufficient to support continuation of current 
services.
