2013 current status includes budget authority and outlays resulting from prior year appropriations. It reflects the latest stage of action, starting with the committee-reported stage.
Revised security = budget function 050; revised nonsecurity = all other than budget function 050.
The Budget Control Act of 2011 (P.L. 112-25) imposes caps on appropriations of new discretionary budget authority. This law allows for adjustments to the discretionary caps (and allows
the Senate Committee on the Budget to adjust the 302(b) allocation) when appropriations are provided for certain purposes. Funding for OCO/GWOT and funding designated as an
emergency requirement would lead to an increase in the caps. The caps would also be increased for disaster relief funding, but the adjustments would be limited on the basis of
historical averages for such funding. The memorandum in the table above identifies the estimated amounts of the adjustments. In addition, the caps would be increased for program
integrity funding, up to the limits provided in the Act (this adjustment will be shown in a footnote, when appropriate).
1. Pursuant to section 106(b)(2) of the Budget Control Act of 2011 (P.L. 112-25), on March 20, 2012 the chairman of the Senate Budget Committee filed a 302(a) allocation for purposes
of budget enforcement in the Senate. The allocation will remain in effect until the adoption by Congress of a budget resolution.
2. The Budget Control Act of 2011 allows for an increase in the caps for additional budget authority provided for program integrity initiatives aimed at reducing improper benefit
payments in Disability Insurance and Supplemental Security Income programs, Medicare, Medicaid, and the Children's Health Insurance Program. 5. 3295 provides $1,050 million for
program integrity initiatives, with an estimated 2013 new outlay of $907 million.
3. Pursuant to section 251 of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985.
