OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET


OMB Final Sequestration Report to the President and Congress for 
Fiscal Year 2019

AGENCY: Executive Office of the President, Office of Management and 
Budget.

ACTION: Notice of availability of the OMB Final Sequestration Report to 
the President and Congress for FY 2019.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: OMB is issuing its Final Sequestration Report to the President 
and Congress for Fiscal Year 2019 to report on compliance of enacted 
2019 discretionary appropriations legislation with the discretionary 
caps. The report finds that enacted appropriations are within the 
discretionary caps for 2019. As a result, a sequestration of 
discretionary budget authority is not required in 2019.

DATES: Effective Date: March 4, 2019. Section 254 of the Balanced 
Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, requires the Office 
of Management and Budget (OMB) to issue its Final Sequestration Report 
15 calendar days after the end of a congressional session. With regard 
to this final report and to each of the three required sequestration 
reports, section 254(b) specifically states the following:

    SUBMISSION AND AVAILABILITY OF REPORTS.--Each report required by 
this section shall be submitted, in the case of CBO, to the House of 
Representatives, the Senate and OMB and, in the case of OMB, to the 
House of Representatives, the Senate, and the President on the day 
it is issued. On the following day, a notice of the report shall be 
printed in the Federal Register.

    However, a provision in the 2019 Continuing Resolution delayed the 
release of this report until 15 days after the 2019 Continuing 
Resolution expired on February 15, 2019.

ADDRESSES: The OMB Sequestration Reports to the President and Congress 
is available on-line on the OMB home page at: https://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/legislative/sequestration-reports-orders/.
