Congressional Budget Office scorekeeping puts the\ntotals at $32.8 billion ($15.7 billion mandatory and $17.1 discretionary. The House passed an\nappropriation totaling $32.7 billion. The Senate-passed bill would have funded the accounts at $32.8\nbillion. The conference agreement would provide a 4.6% pay adjustment in January 2002 for federal\ncivilian employees. Several of the accounts within the bill are also receiving funding through the\nEmergency Response Fund under P.L. 107-38 and P.L. 107-117 .\n On April 9, 2001, President George W. Bush submitted his FY2002 budget to Congress. The\nbudget documents show, for accounts funded through the Treasury, Postal Service, and General\nGovernment appropriations bill, a proposed FY2002 discretionary budget authority of $16.6 billion\nand proposed outlays of $16.3 billion. This represents a $1 billion increase over the FY2001 enacted\nestimates (estimates do not reflect the enacted FY2001 supplemental). Realistically, the estimates\nwhich were offered earlier in the year are no longer current. Several of the covered accounts fund\nactivities affected either directly by, or as a consequence of response to, the attacks of September 11.\n Accounts in the Department of the Treasury, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms, U.S.\nCustoms Service, U.S. Secret Service, and the General Services Administration usually receive\nfunding for functions related to countering terrorism. Emergency Response Fund allocations, as\nprovided by P.L. 107-38 , the Emergency Supplemental Appropriations Act for Recovery from and\nResponse to Terrorist Attacks on the United States, FY2001, have gone to accounts in the\nDepartment of the Treasury, the Executive Office of the President and the General Services\nAdministration. To date, those accounts have been allocated $147.5 million from the Emergency\nResponse Fund. Those allocations are not included in the totals above.\n Pursuant to recent negotiations, between the White House and Congress, on new overall\nfunding levels, the October 9 House allocation for the spending allocations for the Treasury and\nGeneral Government accounts remain at $17.022 billion. The Senate Appropriations Committee\nallocated $17.118 billion on October 11.", "type": "CRS Report", "typeId": "REPORTS", "active": false, "formats": [ { "format": "HTML", "encoding": "utf-8", "url": "http://www.crs.gov/Reports/RL31002", "sha1": "7698bcca911012f634ad9558f951decdb821357b", "filename": "files/20020116_RL31002_7698bcca911012f634ad9558f951decdb821357b.html", "images": null }, { "format": "PDF", "encoding": null, "url": "http://www.crs.gov/Reports/pdf/RL31002", "sha1": "242fb9d2ca719af04738796588df44caf1ed5f7f", "filename": "files/20020116_RL31002_242fb9d2ca719af04738796588df44caf1ed5f7f.pdf", "images": null } ], "topics": [] } ], "topics": [ "Appropriations", "Economic Policy", "Environmental Policy", "Foreign Affairs", "Intelligence and National Security" ] }
