      "title": "Appropriations for FY2001: District of Columbia",
      "summary": "On February 7, 2000, President Clinton submitted his budget recommendations for FY2001. The\nAdministration's proposed budget includes $ 445 million in federal payments and assistance to the\nDistrict of Columbia. On March 13, 2000, D.C. Mayor Anthony Williams submitted his proposed\nbudget for FY2001. The proposed budget included $4.7 billion in general fund expenditures and\n$695 million in enterprise funds. The District of Columbia Financial Responsibility and Management\nAssistance Authority (Authority), on June 7, 2000, approved a budget compromise reached by the\ncity council and the mayor, which includes $137 million more in funding for public education than\nappropriated for FY2000, and $47 million more than requested by the mayor. In addition, the city's\nbudget appropriates $214.6 million for economic development, which is $24 million more than\nappropriated in FY2000, and $197.8 million for governmental support activities, which is $62.0\nmillion more than appropriated in FY2000. \n  The District budget, which must be approved by Congress, requests $445 million in special\nfederal payments. On September 27, 2000, the Senate completed action on its version of the District's\nAppropriations Act for FY2001,   H.R. 4942  (previously  S. 3041 ) ,\nwhich\nincludes $445 million in special federal payments. On September 14, 2000, the House passed its\nversion of the District's appropriation bill,  H.R. 4942 , which includes $414 million in\nspecial federal payments to the District. On October 26, 2000, the House approved a conference\nversion of  H.R. 4942 , which included appropriations for the Departments of Commerce,\nJustice, and State. The conference bill includes $448 million in special payments to the District.\n  Earlier this year District residents approved by referendum an amendment to the District's home\nrule charter that restructures the city's Board of Education. The charter amendment reconfigures the\nschool board from an 11 member panel with eight members elected by ward and 3 at-large to a board\ncomprising five elected members and four members appointed by the mayor. The referendum, which\nwas approved by voters on June 27, 2000, will give the mayor greater influence over education\npolicy, funding, and resource allocation through his appointed members on the Board of Education. \nIt also means the mayor assumes greater accountability for the state of the city's public schools. \n  In addition, the council must complete its work on revising sentencing guidelines governing\nconvicted felons as mandated by the National Capital Revitalization Act of 1997,  P.L. 105-33 . The\n1997 Act transferred to the federal government funding responsibility for criminal justice activities. \nThese activities account for $244.9 million (55%) of the total $445 million in requested special federal\npayments. This report will be updated to reflect the latest action affecting the District's FY2001\nappropriations.",
