[Pages S2726-S2730] 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 June 2020. This is my first scorekeeping report since I filed the deemed budget resolution for fiscal year 2021 on May 4, 2020, 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 June 1, 2020. In general, my filing of May 4 established the following enforceable budgetary levels: (1) allocations for fiscal year 2021 for the Committee on Appropriations; (2) allocations for fiscal years 2021, 2021 through 2025, and 2021 through 2030 for committees other than the Committee on Appropriations; (3) aggregate spending levels for fiscal year 2021; (4) aggregate revenue levels for fiscal year 2021, 2021 through 2025, and 2021 through 2030; and (5) aggregate levels of outlays and revenue for fiscal years 2021, 2021 through 2025, and 2021 through 2030 for Social Security. Allocations and aggregates for fiscal year 2020 were not overridden by this filing and continue to be enforced under the fiscal year 2020 deemed budget that was filed on September 9, 2019. The figures underpinning the new enforceable levels are based on the discretionary spending limits set forth in the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2019 and CBO's March 2020 baseline, adjusted to reflect legislation enacted between the publication of the baseline and my May 4 filing. Enforceable figures in this filing exclude the direct budgetary effects of provisions in legislation enacted after the release of the baseline that were designated as an emergency pursuant to section 4112 of the fiscal year 2018 congressional budget resolution, H. Con. Res. 71, 115th Congress. Budget Committee Republican staff prepared Tables A-G. Table A gives the amount by which each Senate authorizing committee exceeds or falls below its allocations for budget authority and outlays under the fiscal year 2020 and fiscal year 2021 deemed budget resolutions. This information is used for enforcing committee allocations pursuant to section 302 of the CBA. To date, eight committees are out of compliance with their allocations for fiscal year 2020, however no committees have breached their newly released allocations this cycle. Tables B and C provide 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 tables show that the Appropriations Committee is compliant with spending limits for fiscal years 2020 and 2021. The figures included in Table C reflect advanced and permanent appropriations that have already been enacted but will become available for obligation in fiscal year 2021. [[Page S2727]] Tables D and E display figures related to limits on the use of changes in mandatory programs, CHIMPs in appropriations bills. These $15 billion limits, found in the fiscal year 2018 budget resolution for fiscal year 2020 and section 207 of BBA19 for fiscal year 2021, currently show the Appropriations Committee in compliance. Tables F and G provide the amount of budget authority enacted for 2020 and 2021, respectively, that have been designated as either for an emergency or for overseas contingency operations, OCO, 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 OCO spending; however, any Senator may challenge the designation with a point of order to strike the designation on the floor. 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. Because legislation can still be enacted that would have an effect on fiscal year 2020, CBO provided spending and revenue reports for both fiscal year 2020 and fiscal year 2021. This information is used to enforce aggregate spending levels in budget resolutions under CBA section 311. CBO's estimates show that current levels of spending for fiscal year 2020 exceed amounts in last year's budget resolution by $68.6 billion in budget authority and $55.1 billion in outlays, 2020, Tables 1-2. Revenues are $114.8 billion below the revenue floor. As well, Social Security outlays are at levels assumed for 2020, while Social Security revenues are $16 million above levels assumed in budget. For fiscal year 2021, the current law levels are $1,180.0 billion and $667.8 billion in budget authority and outlays, respectively, below allowable levels, 2021, Tables 1-2. This spending room will be spent down as regular appropriations bills are enacted for fiscal year 2021. Revenues and Social Security levels are at the levels assumed by the fiscal year 2021 deemed budget. CBO's report also provides information needed to enforce the Senate pay-as-you-go, PAYGO, rule, 2021, Table 3. This rule is enforced under section 4106 of the 2018 budget resolution. The scorecard stands at zero for all enforceable levels consistent with the filing of newly deemed budget levels. This submission also includes a table tracking the Senate's budget enforcement activity on the floor since the enforcement filing on May 4, 2020. Since that filing, no points of order have been raised. 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 2021 2021-2025 2021-2030 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry Budget Authority.......... 10,430 0 0 0 Outlays................... 10,430 0 0 0 Armed Services Budget Authority.......... 32 0 0 0 Outlays................... 35 0 0 0 Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Budget Authority.......... 169 0 0 0 Outlays................... 169 0 0 0 Commerce, Science, and Transportation Budget Authority.......... 7 0 0 0 Outlays................... 7 0 0 0 Energy and Natural Resources Budget Authority.......... 0 0 0 0 Outlays................... 0 0 0 0 Environment and Public Works Budget Authority.......... 8,058 0 0 0 Outlays................... 415 0 0 0 Finance Budget Authority.......... 50,913 0 0 0 Outlays................... 49,452 0 0 0 Foreign Relations Budget Authority.......... 2 0 0 0 Outlays................... 37 0 0 0 Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Budget Authority.......... 0 0 0 0 Outlays................... 0 0 0 0 Judiciary Budget Authority.......... 12 0 0 0 Outlays................... 12 0 0 0 Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Budget Authority.......... -720 0 0 0 Outlays................... -997 0 0 0 Rules and Administration Budget Authority.......... 0 0 0 0 Outlays................... 0 0 0 0 Intelligence Budget Authority.......... 0 0 0 0 Outlays................... 0 0 0 0 Veterans' Affairs Budget Authority.......... 0 0 0 0 Outlays................... 0 0 0 0 Indian Affairs Budget Authority.......... 0 0 0 0 Outlays................... 0 0 0 0 Small Business Budget Authority.......... 0 0 0 0 Outlays................... 0 0 0 0 ----------------------------------------- Total Budget Authority...... 68,903 0 0 0 Outlays............... 59,560 0 0 0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This table is current through June 1, 2020.

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.

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 2021 budget and is current through June 1, 2020. This report is submitted under section 308(b) and in aid of section 311 of the Congressional Budget Act, as amended.
