REPORT
The Committee on Appropriations submits the following
report further revising the section 302(b) allocation to its
subcommittees for fiscal year 2015 set forth in Senate Report
113-163 (May 22, 2014), revised in Senate Report 113-193 (June
17, 2014), and further revised in Senate Report 113-222 (July
29, 2014) and Senate Report 113-241 (August 5, 2014).
Section 302(e) of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, as
amended, provides that at any time after a committee reports
its allocations such committee may report to its House an
alteration of such allocations. This report is submitted
pursuant to this section.
The Budget Act requires that as soon as practicable after a
concurrent resolution on the budget is agreed to, the Committee
on Appropriations shall submit to the Senate a report
subdividing among its subcommittees the new budget authority
and total outlays allocated to the Committee in the joint
explanatory statement accompanying the conference report on
such a resolution. Section 116 of the Bipartisan Budget Act of
2013 (Public Law 113-67) provides for the chairman of the
Committee on the Budget to file an allocation consistent with
the terms of the act to serve as a section 302(a) allocation
for purposes of budget enforcement in the Senate. The
allocation was filed by the chairman of the Budget Committee on
May 5, 2014.
On May 22, 2014, the Committee on Appropriations filed an
initial allocation to its subcommittees pursuant to its section
302(a) allocation.
On June 16, 2014, the Committee on the Budget filed a
revised 302(a) allocation for the Committee (Congressional
Record pp. S3680-3681) reflecting permissible increases in the
fiscal year 2015 discretionary allocation. These increases
reflect $100,000,000 in nonsecurity budget authority designated
for disaster relief, plus associated outlays.
On July 29, 2014, the Committee on the Budget filed a
further revised 302(a) allocation for the Committee
(Congressional Record pp. S5042-5043) reflecting permissible
increases in the fiscal year 2015 discretionary allocation.
These increases reflect $6,438,000,000 in nonsecurity budget
authority designated for disaster relief, plus associated
outlays and $58,579,000,000 in security budget authority and
$9,978,000,000 in nonsecurity budget authority designated for
overseas contingency operations, plus associated outlays.
On August 5, 2014, the Committee on the Budget filed a
further revised 302(a) allocation for the Committee
(Congressional Record pp. S5331-5332) reflecting permissible
increases in the fiscal year 2015 discretionary allocation.
These increases reflect $75,000,000 in security outlays
designated as an emergency requirement.
On December 12, 2014, the Committee on the Budget filed a
further revised 302(a) allocation for the Committee reflecting
permissible adjustments to the fiscal year 2015 discretionary
allocation. The revised 302(a) allocation reflects an increase
of $5,855,000,000 in security budget authority and a reduction
of $720,000,000 in nonsecurity budget authority designated for
overseas contingency operations, plus associated outlays and a
reduction of $9,000,000 in nonsecurity budget authority
designated for disaster relief, plus associated outlays. In
addition, the revised 302(a) allocation reflects an increase of
$1,484,000,000 in nonsecurity budget authority reflecting funds
provided for continuing disability reviews and redeterminations
and for health care fraud and abuse control, plus associated
outlays and an increase of $112,000,000 in security budget
authority and $5,293,000,000 in nonsecurity budget authority
designated as an emergency requirement, plus associated
outlays.
