[Pages S236-S239] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] BUDGET SCOREKEEPING REPORT Mr. ENZI. Mr. President, I rise to submit to the Senate the budget scorekeeping report for January 2020. This is my third scorekeeping report since I filed the deemed budget resolution for fiscal year 2020 on September 9, 2019, as required by the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2019, BBA19. The report compares current-law levels of spending and revenues with the amounts agreed to in BBA19. In the Senate, this information is used to determine whether budgetary points of order lie against pending legislation. The Republican staff of the Budget Committee and the Congressional Budget Office, CBO, prepared this report pursuant to section 308(b) of the Congressional Budget Act CBA. The information included in this report is current through January 7, 2020. Since I filed the last scorekeeping report on December 4, 2019, four measures with significant enforceable budgetary effects have been enacted. The first measure enacted this reporting period, H.R. 5363, the Fostering Undergraduate Talent by Unlocking Resources for Education Act, FUTURE Act, cleared the Senate by voice vote and became P.L. 116- 91. The bill included two provisions with significant cost over the 10- year period: a permanent extension of mandatory funding for historically Black colleges and universities and additional mandatory funding for the Pell Grant program. To offset these provisions, the measure allows the Department of Education to access taxpayer data when administering Federal student aid programs. Overall, CBO estimates that the FUTURE Act would reduce outlays by $997 million in the first year, $835 million over 5 years, and $435 million over 10 years. This measure was charged to the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee. The second measure enacted this reporting period was the conference report to accompany S. 1790, the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2020. This measure, which became P.L. 116-92 and was charged to the Armed Services Committee, authorized appropriations for the Nation's national defense apparatus for the current fiscal year. In addition to the authorization of funds, the conference report included changes in law, notably to the Survivor Benefit Program, that would affect direct spending and revenues. According to CBO's estimate, the measure would increase direct spending by $5.6 billion over the 2020 to 2029 period. The third measure, H.R. 1158, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020, became P.L. 116-93. This bill provided funding for fiscal year 2020 programs within the jurisdictions of four Senate appropriations subcommittees, including Defense, Commerce-Justice-Science, Financial Services and General Government, and Homeland Security. CBO estimated that the bill would bring total budget authority provided for programs covered by these four subcommittees to $860.3 billion in fiscal year 2020. Of the amounts provided, $767.6 billion was considered regular appropriations and $92.6 billion qualified for cap adjustments under existing law. The final measure with significant effects enacted this reporting period was H.R. 1865, the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020. This bill, which became P.L. 116-94, provided appropriations for fiscal year 2020 for the remaining eight Senate appropriations subcommittees, extended numerous expiring programs and tax provisions, repealed several healthcare taxes, expanded access to retirement plans, provided additional resources for pensions for miners, and contained several provisions related to various foreign policy initiatives. CBO estimated that divisions A-H of the bill, which provided discretionary appropriations, would bring total appropriated budget authority for covered programs to $539.9 billion in fiscal year 2020. Of the amount provided, $520.4 billion was provided as regular appropriations and $19.5 billion qualified for cap adjustments under existing law. CBO further estimated that divisions I--Q of the bill would increase deficits by $408.9 billion over the 2020 through 2029 period. Divisions A--H were charged to the Appropriations Committee; divisions I and K were charged to the Banking Committee; division J was charged to the Foreign Relations Committee; division L was charged to the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee; divisions M, N, O, and Q were charged to the Finance Committee; and division P was charged to the Commerce Committee. The measure passed the Senate by a vote of 71 to 23. Budget Committee Republican staff prepared tables A-D. Table A gives the amount by which each Senate authorizing committee exceeds or is below its allocation for budget authority and outlays under the fiscal year 2020 deemed budget resolution. This information is used for enforcing committee allocations pursuant to section 302 of the CBA. Legislation enacted to date has resulted in six authorizing committees breaching their allocations provided by BBA19. In total authorizing committees have breached outlay limitations by more than $29.1 billion over the 2020 through 2029 period. Table B provides the amount by which the Senate Committee on Appropriations is below or exceeds the statutory spending limits. This information is used to determine points of order related to the spending caps found in sections 312 and 314 of the CBA. The table shows that the Appropriations Committee is compliant with spending limits for current the fiscal year. Those limits for regular discretionary spending are $666.5 billion for accounts in the defense category and $621.5 billion for accounts in the nondefense category of spending. The 2018 budget resolution contained points of order limiting the use of changes in mandatory programs, CHIMPs, in appropriations bills. Table C, which tracks the CHIMP limit of $15 billion for 2020, shows the Appropriations Committee has complied with the CHIMP limit for this fiscal year. CHIMPs enacted as part of the 2020 appropriations cycle include $5.7 billion from changes to the Crime Victims Fund and $9.3 billion in changes to accounts related to the Children's Health Insurance Program. [[Page S237]] Table D provides the amount of budget authority enacted for 2020 that has been designated as either for an emergency or for overseas contingency operations pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended. Funding that receives either of these designations results in cap adjustments to enforceable discretionary spending limits. There is no limit on either emergency or overseas contingency operations spending; however, any Senator may challenge the designation with a point of order to strike the designation on the floor. To date, more than $88.0 billion has been enacted with either the emergency or overseas contingency operations designations for the 2020 appropriations cycle. In addition to the tables provided by Budget Committee Republican staff, I am submitting CBO tables, which I will use to enforce budget totals approved by Congress. CBO provided a spending and revenue report for 2020, table 1, which helps enforce aggregate spending levels in budget resolutions under CBA section 311. Following the enactment of the two minibus appropriations bills in December and the continued spending of authorizing committees, the current level is now in excess of allowable levels by $15.4 billion for budget authority and $1.7 billion for outlays in 2020. Details on 2020 levels can be found in CBO's second table. Current-law revenues are currently below enforceable levels for all enforcement periods. Due to the enactment of the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020, and to a lesser extent this year's national defense authorization bill, revenues are currently $34.4 billion, $150.7 billion, and $386.2 billion lower than assumed in the deemed budget resolution for 2020, 2020 through 2024, and 2020 through 2029, respectively. Social Security spending levels are consistent with the budget resolution's figures for 2020; however, Social Security revenue levels are $15 million below assumed levels. CBO's report also provides information needed to enforce the Senate pay-as-you-go, pay-go, rule table 3. This rule was established under section 4106 of the 2018 budget resolution. The Senate pay-go scorecard currently shows a credit of $965 million in 2020 but deficit increases of $1.1 billion and $5.2 billion over the 2019-2024 and 2019-2029 periods, respectively. Please note that the deficit effects of division I through division Q of the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020 are excluded from the Senate's pay-go scorecard pursuant to title X of division I of that law. This submission also includes a table tracking the Senate's budget enforcement activity on the floor since the enforcement filing on September 9, 2019. I raised two points of order during this reporting period. On December 17, 2019, I raised the long-term deficits point of order against the national defense authorization conference report for increasing deficits by more than $5 billion in years following the current budget window. That point of order was waived by a vote of 82 to 12. On December 19, 2019, I raised the same point of order against the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020, but that was also waived with a vote of 64 to 30. All years in the accompanying tables are fiscal years. I ask unanimous consent that the accompanying tables be printed in the Record. There being no objection, the material was ordered to be printed in the Record, as follows: TABLE A.--SENATE AUTHORIZING COMMITTEES--ENACTED DIRECT SPENDING ABOVE (+) OR BELOW (-) BUDGET RESOLUTIONS [In millions of dollars] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2020 2020-2024 2020-2029 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry Budget Authority.................... 0 0 0 Outlays............................. 0 0 0 Armed Services Budget Authority.................... 32 1,972 5,637 Outlays............................. 35 1,972 5,637 Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Budget Authority.................... 169 2,260 5,402 Outlays............................. 169 2,246 5,402 Commerce, Science, and Transportation Budget Authority.................... 7 7 7 Outlays............................. 7 7 7 Energy and Natural Resources Budget Authority.................... 0 0 0 Outlays............................. 0 0 0 Environment and Public Works Budget Authority.................... 8,058 38,589 77,069 Outlays............................. 415 683 1,130 Finance Budget Authority.................... 8,180 14,359 17,310 Outlays............................. 6,505 14,037 17,340 Foreign Relations Budget Authority.................... 2 2 2 Outlays............................. 37 37 37 Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Budget Authority.................... 0 0 0 Outlays............................. 0 0 0 Judiciary Budget Authority.................... 0 0 0 Outlays............................. 0 0 0 Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Budget Authority.................... -720 -400 0 Outlays............................. -997 -835 -435 Rules and Administration Budget Authority.................... 0 0 0 Outlays............................. 0 0 0 Intelligence Budget Authority.................... 0 0 0 Outlays............................. 0 0 0 Veterans' Affairs Budget Authority.................... 0 0 0 Outlays............................. 0 0 0 Indian Affairs Budget Authority.................... 0 0 0 Outlays............................. 0 0 0 Small Business Budget Authority.................... 0 0 0 Outlays............................. 0 0 0 ------------------------------- Total Budget Authority................ 15,728 56,789 105,427 Outlays......................... 6,171 18,147 29,118 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Note: This table is current through January 7, 2020.

[[Page S238]] U.S. Congress, Congressional Budget Office, Washington, DC, January 15, 2020. Hon. Mike Enzi, Chairman, Committee on the Budget, U.S. Senate, Washington, DC. Dear Mr. Chairman: The enclosed report shows the effects of Congressional action on the fiscal year 2020 budget and is current through January 7, 2020. This report is submitted under section 308(b) and in aid of section 311 of the Congressional Budget Act, as amended. The estimates of budget authority, outlays, and revenues are consistent with the allocations, aggregates, and other budgetary levels printed in the Congressional Record on September 9, 2019, pursuant to section 204 of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2019 (Public Law 116-37). Since our last letter dated December 4, 2020, the Congress has cleared and the President has signed the following legislation that has significant effects on budget authority and outlays in fiscal year 2020: Fostering Undergraduate Talent by Unlocking Resources for Education Act (Public Law 116-91); National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2020 (Public Law 116-92); Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020 (Public Law 116-93); and Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020 (Public Law 116-94). Sincerely, Phillip L. Swagel, Director. Enclosure.

Therefore, the amounts shown in this report do not include $567 million in budget authority and $798 million in estimated outlays. \b\ For purposes of enforcing section 311 of the Congressional Budget Act in the Senate, the resolution, as approved by the Senate, does not include budget authority, outlays, or revenues for off-budget amounts. As a result, amounts in this current level report do not include those items. \c\ Section 124 of the Continuing Appropriations Act, 2020 (division A of P.L. 116-59), appropriated funding for the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative (within the jurisdiction of the Subcommittee on Defense) and designated those amounts as funding for overseas contingency operations. That provision took effect upon enactment on September 27, 2019. \d\ In consultation with the House and Senate Committees on the Budget and the Office of Management and Budget, rescissions of emergency funding that was not designated as an emergency requirement pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 shall not count for certain budgetary enforcement purposes.

The Chairman of the Senate Committee on the Budget has the authority to revise the budgetary aggregates for the budgetary effects of certain revenue and spending measures pursuant to the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 and H.
