REVISION TO THE AGGREGATES, ALLOCATIONS, AND OTHER BUDGETARY LEVELS FOR 
                            FISCAL YEAR 2020

                                         House of Representatives,


                                      Committee on the Budget,

                                Washington, DC, September 9, 2019.
       Madam Speaker: Pursuant to the Bipartisan Budget Act of 
     2019 (BBA of 2019), Congressional Budget Act of 1974 (CBA), 
     Balanced Budget and Deficit Control Act of 1985 (BBEDCA), and 
     H. Res. 293 (116th Congress), I hereby submit for printing in 
     the Congressional Record a revision to the aggregates and 
     allocations set forth in the Statement of Aggregates, 
     Allocations, and Other Budgetary Levels for Fiscal Year 2020 
     published in the Congressional Record on May 3, 2019, as 
     adjusted.
       In accordance with these Acts and House Resolution, this 
     revision includes an allowable adjustment for disaster relief 
     pursuant to section 251(b) of BBEDCA as contained in the text 
     of H.R. 3931, the Department of Homeland Security 
     Appropriations Act, 2020, as reported by the Committee on 
     Appropriations. Additionally, several adjustments have been 
     made pursuant to, and to conform with, the BBA of 2019: (1) a 
     revision for discretionary spending limits pursuant to 
     section 101(a) of such Act; (2) a revision for additional 
     amounts provided for Overseas Contingency Operations pursuant 
     to section 101(b) of such Act; (3) a revision to a previous 
     Census adjustment pursuant to section 101(c) of such Act; and 
     (4) a revision to a previous adjustment for program integrity 
     initiatives to conform with the BBA of 2019, which does not 
     provide for additional program integrity activities beyond 
     current law.
       Accordingly, I am revising aggregate spending levels for 
     fiscal year 2020 and the allocation for the House Committee 
     on Appropriations for fiscal year 2020. For purposes of 
     enforcing titles III and IV of the CBA and other budgetary 
     enforcement provisions, the revised aggregates and allocation 
     are to be considered as aggregates and allocations included 
     in the budget resolution, pursuant to the Statement published 
     in the Congressional Record on May 3, 2019, as adjusted.
       Questions may be directed to Jennifer Wheelock or Raquel 
     Spencer of the Budget Committee staff.
                                                     John Yarmuth.
