BUDGET SCOREKEEPING REPORT

Mr. GREGG. Mr. President, I hereby submit to the Senate the budget
scorekeeping report prepared by the Congressional Budget Office under
Section 308(b) and in aid of Section 311 of the Congressional Budget
Act of 1974, as amended. This report meets the requirements for Senate
scorekeeping of Section 5 of S. Con. Res. 32, the First Concurrent
Resolution on the Budget for 1986.
This report shows the effects of congressional action on the 2005
budget through July 26, 2005. The estimates of budget authority,
outlays, and revenues are consistent with the technical and economic
assumptions of the 2006 Concurrent Resolution on the Budget, H. Con.
Res. 95.
The estimates show that current level spending is under the budget
resolution by $4.986 billion in budget authority and by $27 million in
outlays in 2005. Current level for revenues is $407 million above the
budget resolution in 2005.
Since my last report dated June 30, 2005, the Congress has cleared
and the President has signed the TANF Extension Act of 2005, P.L. 109-
19, the Surface Transportation Act of 2005, Part II, P.L. 109-20, the
Surface Transportation Act of 2005, Part III, P.L. 109-35, and the
Surface Transportation Act of 2005, Part IV, P.L. 109-37 which changed
budget authority and outlays.
I ask unanimous consent that the report be printed in the Record.
There being no objection, the material was ordered to be printed in
the Record, as follows:

U.S. Congress,

Congressional Budget Office,

Washington, DC, July 28, 2005.
Hon. Judd Gregg,
Chairman, Committee on the Budget,
U.S. Senate, Washington, DC.
Dear Mr. Chairman: The enclosed tables show the effects of
Congressional action on the 2005 budget and are current
through July 26, 2005. 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 technical and economic assumptions
for fiscal year 2005 that underlie H. Con. Res. 95, the
Concurrent Resolution on the Budget for Fiscal Year 2006.
Since my last letter, dated June 29, 2005, the Congress has
cleared and the President has signed the following acts that
changed budget authority, outlays, or revenues:
TANF Extension Act of 2005 (Public Law 109-19); Surface
Transportation Extension Act of 2005, Part II (Public Law
109-20); Surface Transportation Extension Act of 2005, Part
III (Public Law 109-35); and Surface Transportation Extension
Act of 2005, Part IV (Public Law 109-37).
In addition, a correction was made to the final scoring of
the Surface Transportation Extension Act of 2005 (P.L. 109-
14). The estimate of budget authority was reduced by $28
million for fiscal year 2005.
Sincerely,
Elizabeth M. Robinson,
(For Douglas Holtz-Eakin, Director).

\1\ H. Con. Res. 95, the Concurrent Resolution on the Budget for Fiscal
Year 2006, assumed the enactment of emergency supplemental
appropriations for fiscal year 2005, in the amount of $81,811 million
in budget authority and $32,121 million in outlays, which would be
exempt from the enforcement of the budget resolution. Since current
level excludes the emergency appropriations in P.L. 109-13 (see
footnote 2 of Table 2), the amounts specified in the budget resolution
have also been reduced for purposes of comparison.
\2\ Current level is the estimated effect on revenue and spending of all
legislation that the Congress has enacted or sent to the President for
his approval. In addition, full-year funding estimates under current
law are included for entitlement and mandatory programs requiring
annual appropriations even if the appropriations have not been made.

Note: * = less than $50 million.

\2\ Pursuant to section 402 of H. Con. Res. 95, the Concurrent Resolution on the Budget for Fiscal Year 2006,
provisions designated as emergency requirements are exempt from enforcement of the budget resolution. As a
result, the current level excludes $83,140 million in budget authority and $33,034 million in outlays from the

(P.L. 109-13).

authority and $32,121 million in outlays, which would be exempt from the enforcement of the budget resolution.
Since current level excludes the emergency appropriations in P.L. 109-13 (see footnote 2), the amounts
specified in the budget resolution have also been reduced for purposes of comparison.
