                              ----------                              

                                                      May 25, 2001.
Hon. J. Dennis Hastert,
Speaker of the House, House of Representatives, Washington, DC.
    Dear Speaker Hastert: I am pleased to transmit the District 
of Columbia FY 2002 Budget Request Act and appreciate your 
willingness to expedite its review and approval. This budget 
focuses resources on the service improvements that citizens 
care most about: education, services for our most vulnerable 
residents, and neighborhood quality of life. Moreover, it sets 
a new standard for investing in critical priorities and 
maintaining fiscal responsibility.
    Also enclosed are schedules containing the FY 2002 Budget 
Request Act, the FY 2001 Approved Budget, and the variance 
between the two by agency and fund-type. I have included as 
well a schedule displaying FTE positions by agency and fund-
type. I believe this will provide sufficient information for 
the appropriate Committees to begin reviewing and analyzing the 
District's budget request. I will be transmitting the Financial 
Plan, the agency budget chapters and supporting schedules by 
June 4, 2001.
    If you have questions or concerns regarding the District's 
budget request, please contact my Director of Intergovernmental 
Relations, Darlene Taylor or our Chief Financial Office, Natwar 
Gandhi. I look forward to working with you in the coming weeks 
and thank you for your continued support of the District of 
Columbia.
            Sincerely,
                                        Anthony A. Williams, Mayor.
    Enclosures.
