SECOND BUDGET RESOLUTION CROSSWALK ALLOCATIONS TO SENATE COMMITTEES
Mr. MUSKIE. Mr. President, the House has now adopted the second budget resolution for fiscal year 1980. This completes action on the congressional budget.
The resolution the House adopted was Senate Concurrent Resolution 53, an original resolution passed by the Senate on November 16 and sent to the House. It is the same as the conference agreement on the earlier budget resolution, Senate Concurrent Resolution 36, except that a sense of the Congress statement on reconciliation savings was substituted for the previous reconciliation instructions. An original resolution was required because Senate Concurrent Resolution 36 could not be further amended.
I ask unanimous consent to print in the RECORD a table showing the crosswalk allocations to Senate committees under section 302(a) of the Congressional Budget Act reflecting the agreements reached under the budget resolution that has been adopted.
There being no objection, the table was ordered to be printed in the RECORD, as follows:
[Table omitted]
Mr. MUSKIE. These allocations are exactly the same as contained in the statement of managers accompanying the conference report on Senate Concurrent Resolution 36 (S. Rept. 399) which the Senate passed on November 7 but which has now been superseded by Senate Concurrent Resolution 53.
I further ask unanimous consent that this table be considered as meeting the requirements of section 302(a) of the Budget Act. This action is necessary to formalize the second budget resolution crosswalks, since there is no conference report, and thus no statement of managers, on Senate Concurrent Resolution 53.
The PRESIDING OFFICER. There being no objection, it is so ordered.
Mr. MUSKIE. I thank my good friend from Alaska (Mr. STEVENS).
