[Pages S5354-S5356] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] ENFORCING BUDGETARY LEVELS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2020 Mr. ENZI. Mr. President, the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2019, PL 16-37, included an instruction to the chairman of the Senate Committee on the Budget to file allocations, aggregates, and budgetary levels in the Senate as soon as practicable. Today, I rise to submit the required filing found in that act. Specifically, sections 204 and 206 of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2019 require the chairman to file, No. 1, allocations for fiscal year 2020 for the Committee on Appropriations; No. 2, allocations for fiscal years 2020, 2020 through 2024, and 2020 through 2029 for committees other than the Committee on Appropriations; No. 3, aggregate spending levels for fiscal year 2020; No. 4, aggregate revenue levels for fiscal year 2020, 2020 through 2024, and 2020 through 2029; No. 5, aggregate levels of outlays and revenue for fiscal years 2020, 2020 through 2024, and 2020 through 2029 for Social Security; and, No. 6, a list of accounts eligible to receive advance appropriations. The figures included in this filing are consistent with the discretionary spending limits set forth in the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2019 and the Congressional Budget Office's May 2019 baseline, as adjusted to reflect legislation enacted since the publication of the baseline. In instances where enforceable discretionary levels are required to be adjusted for spending designated as an emergency pursuant to the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act, as amended, including funding in both the Additional Supplemental Appropriations for Disaster Relief Act, 2019, PL 116-20, and the Emergency Supplemental Appropriations for Humanitarian Assistance [[Page S5355]] and Border Security at the Southern Border Act, 2019, PL 116-26, those adjustments are included. In addition to the update for enforceable limits above, section 204 of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2019 allows for the deficit-neutral reserve funds included in title III of the fiscal year 2018 congressional budget resolution--H. Con. Res. 71, 115th Congress--to be updated by 2 fiscal years. Pursuant to this authority, all deficit- neutral reserve funds in the aforementioned title of the fiscal year 2018 congressional budget resolution are updated and available for use. For purposes of enforcing the Senate's pay-as-you-go rule, which is found in section 4106 of the fiscal year 2018 congressional budget resolution, I am resetting the Senate's scorecard to zero for all fiscal years. All years in the accompanying tables are fiscal years. I ask unanimous consent that the accompanying tables detailing enforcement in the Senate be printed in the Record. There being no objection, the material was ordered to be printed in the Record, as follows: ALLOCATION OF SPENDING AUTHORITY TO SENATE COMMITTEE ON APPROPRIATIONS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2020 [Pursuant to Section 302 of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 and Section 204 of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2019 ($ Billions)] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Budget Authority Outlays ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Appropriations: Revised Security Category 666.500 n/a Discretionary Budget Authority \1\................

The budget authority for the revised nonsecurity category and outlays have been adjusted in this table ($8 million in budget authority and $6,251 million in outlays, in total) to reflect enactment of the Additional Supplemental Appropriations for Disaster Relief Act, 2019 (P.L. 116-20) and the Emergency Supplemental Appropriations for Humanitarian Assistance and Security at the Southern Border Act, 2019 (P.L. 116-26), both of which included appropriations that were designated as emergencies pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A)(i) of BBEDCA.
