Fiscal Year 2020

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

ACTION: Notice of availability of the OMB Sequestration Update Report 
to the President and Congress for FY 2020.

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

SUMMARY: OMB is issuing the OMB Sequestration Update Report to the 
President and Congress for Fiscal Year 2020 to report on the status of 
the discretionary caps and on the compliance of pending discretionary 
appropriations legislation with those caps.

DATES: August 20, 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/.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Thomas Tobasko, 6202 New Executive 
Office Building, Washington, DC 20503, Email address: 
[email protected], telephone number: (202) 395-5745, FAX number: 
(202) 395-4768. Because of delays in the receipt of regular mail 
related to security screening, respondents are encouraged to use 
electronic communications.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 254 of the Balanced Budget and 
Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 requires the Office of Management 
and Budget (OMB) to issue a Sequestration Update Report by August 20th 
of each year. For fiscal year 2019, the report finds enacted 
appropriations to be at or below the caps after accounting for enacted 
supplemental appropriations. For fiscal years 2020 and 2021, the report 
formally updates the caps for the revisions enacted in the Bipartisan 
Budget Act of 2019. The report also finds that actions to date by the 
House of Representatives for the 12 annual appropriations bills for 
fiscal year 2020 would breach the non-defense cap under OMB estimates 
if they were enacted into law. The Senate has not yet begun 
consideration of its 2020 appropriations bills; therefore, an 
evaluation of Senate compliance cannot be made at this time. Finally, 
the report contains OMB's Preview Estimate of the Disaster Relief 
Funding Adjustment for FY 2020.

Russell T. Vought,
Acting Director.
