    Dear Madam Speaker:  By direction of the Committee on 
Appropriations, I submit herewith the committee's report on the 
suballocation of the committee's allocations for fiscal year 
2022.
    The suballocations contained in this report subdivide the 
allocations of budget authority and outlays in the ``Allocation 
of Spending Authority to the House Committee on 
Appropriations'' printed in the Congressional Record by the 
chair of the House Committee on the Budget on June 24, 2021, 
pursuant to House Resolution 467 (117th Congress) and the 
Congressional Budget Act of 1974.
            Sincerely,
                                           Rosa L. DeLauro,
                                                             Chair.

   Ms. DeLauro, from the Committee on Appropriations, submitted the 
                               following

                              R E P O R T

                 SUBALLOCATION OF BUDGET ALLOCATIONS FOR
                            FISCAL YEAR 2022

    The Committee on Appropriations submits the following 
report on the suballocation of the committee's allocations for 
fiscal year 2022, pursuant to section 302(b) of the 
Congressional Budget Act of 1974. This report is consistent 
with the ``Allocation of Spending Authority to the House 
Committee on Appropriations'' printed in the Congressional 
Record by the chair of the House Committee on the Budget on 
June 24, 2021, pursuant to House Resolution 467 (117th 
Congress) and the Congressional Budget Act of 1974.
    The submission of this report meets the requirement of 
section 302(b) of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 and 
resulting requirement under the Rules of the House.
    The suballocations in this report do not include amounts 
for potential adjustments to the Committee on Appropriations' 
allocations for funding provided in reported bills for the 
purposes provided in House Resolution 467 (117th Congress) and 
the Congressional Budget Act of 1974. Those adjustments would 
be made after eligible funding is included in a bill reported 
to the House and the chair of the Committee on the Budget 
subsequently adjusts the Committee on Appropriations' section 
302(a) allocations.

NOTE._The amounts in this report do not include spending recommended in fiscal year 2022 appropriation bills that is designated as being for an emergency requirement pursuant to section 1(f)
  of House Resolution 467 (117th Congress), amounts provided pursuant to the 21st Century Cures Act (Public Law 114-255), or amounts provided pursuant to section 14003 of the CARES Act (Public
  Law 116-136). Such amounts do not count against the committee's allocations in the House of Representatives, consistent with the Congressional Budget Act of 1974.


                             MINORITY VIEWS

    The Fiscal Year 2022 (FY22) 302(b) suballocations adopted 
by the House Appropriations Committee on June 29, 2021, 
exceeded $1.5 trillion, marking the highest discretionary 
spending level in the history of our country. The total 
allocation represents an increase of over $130 billion, or 
nearly 9%, above the FY21 enacted levels.
    Nearly all the increase in the topline allocation is 
directed to expanding non-defense spending by nearly 17%, while 
the Defense bill's allocation is below the inflation baseline. 
The enormous, non-defense increases are on top of trillions of 
mandatory funds enacted for nondefense programs earlier this 
year without a single Republican vote.
    Underfunding the military when we face growing threats from 
Iran, Russia, and China is irresponsible and unacceptable. 
While our international adversaries are dramatically increasing 
their investments in military technology, the Majority party 
refuses to provide even baseline levels of support to keep our 
country safe.
    The allocations were adopted on a partisan basis, even as 
the Majority had not yet laid out a Budget for the upcoming 
fiscal year, barely 90 days away. With the expiration of the 
Budget Control Act and no statutory budget caps in place this 
year, it was more important than ever to follow the regular 
budget process. Instead, a partisan, procedural shortcut was 
used to ``deem'' the adoption of a one-year resolution, 
providing the Appropriations Committee with an excessive 
topline discretionary amount for FY22.
    The Majority's unwillingness to pass a budget was even more 
egregious, given the explosion of debt and deficits and the 
trillions in mandatory spending enacted earlier this year by 
the Majority party and the President. In addition, the 
President seeks another $4 trillion in mandatory spending this 
year, and trillions in tax hikes over the next ten years.
    Rather than beginning to tackle this problem by restraining 
spending back to pre-pandemic levels and bringing down the 
multi-trillion-dollar deficits and staggering debt of over $28 
trillion, the FY22 allocations further endanger the current 
economic recovery and future prosperity.
    The allocations were adopted without a single Republican 
vote because Republican Members of the Committee could not 
support this continued spending and fiscal recklessness. 
Republican Members also voiced strong opposition to 
undercutting critical investment in our nation's defense, which 
is especially confounding given the record-high topline 
spending level.
    Republican Members of the House Appropriations Committee 
recognize the Nation cannot afford another spending spree on 
domestic programs or the massive borrowing needed to finance 
it, which would lead to higher taxes, higher prices, and 
runaway inflation.
