MUCH OF THE POLITICAL DEBATE ON THE BUDGET HAS BEEN
BASED ON INSIDE-THE-WASHINGTON D.C. - BELTWAY JARGON. THAT
JARGON JUST HIDES THE BASIC ISSUES.
LET ME TRY TO SIMPLIFY IT.
0
AMERICA MUST HAVE A REAL AND SIGNIFICANT DEFICIT
REDUCTION BUDGET TO GET THIS ECONOMY MOVING.
0
THAT DEFICIT REDUCTION WILL BRING DOWN INTEREST RATES
ON HOME PURCHASES, CAR LOANS, AND HELP CREATE NEW JOBS.
O
TO GET THESE RESULTS, THE BUDGET CANNOT BE SMOKE AND
MIRRORS, OR BUSINESS AS USUAL. IT MUST BE REAL,
ENFORCEABLE,
AND PRESERVE OUR INCENTIVES FOR GROWTH.
0
AS ALWAYS, THE REAL PROBLEM HAS BEEN THE UNWILLINGNESS
IN CONGRESS TO VOTE FOR HOLDING DOWN SPENDING.
LET ME MENTION ALSO, ONE THING THAT APPEALS TO ME
ABOUT THE CURRENT SENATE PACKAGE IS THAT IT HOLDS THE LINE ON
INCOME TAX RATES. ONE OF MY BIGGEST FEARS HAS ALWAYS BEEN
THAT THE CONGRESS WILL CONTINUE TO PAY FOR ITS SPENDING
HABITS BY RAISING INCOME TAXES ON EVERYBODY.
IN FACT, THE BUDGET SUMMIT HAS MOVED US IN THE RIGHT
DIRECTION AND HAS BROUGHT US TO THE FINAL COUNTDOWN WEEK.
IN THE NEXT FIVE DAYS, CONGRESS HAS THE CHANCE -- HAS THE
OBLIGATION -- TO ACT.

Announcing the Bipartisan Budget Agreement
FACT SHEET
We must stop mortgaging the future of our children and their
children. America needs a budget agreement. The public demands
it. And, as President Bush said, this compromise meets the
challenge of putting America first.
The five-year bipartisan budget compromise will boost
America's long-term economic vitality. It will give small and
medium-size business a shot in the arm, creating jobs. It will
cut the projected federal deficit by half-a-trillion dollars.
This will mean real and lasting spending cuts. And it will not
raise individual income-tax rates, supporting future economic
growth.
Our nation's economic problems are everyone's concern. So
this agreement is, above all, fair. Everyone will have to make a
sacrifice, but no one will have to bear the burden alone.
Social Security will not be touched.
Although the defense budget is cut by $67 billion over three
years (and more over five years), our men and women serving
in the Persian Gulf region will still get the backing they
deserve to defend themselves and accomplish their mission.
The agreement's new incentives for economic growth include:
-- New incentives to increase domestic exploration and
development of oil and gas resources -- to free America
from dependence on foreign oil.
-- New tax incentives for the development of enterprise
zones -- to create jobs and opportunity for those who
need it the most.
-- Extension of the research and development tax
credit, so America can continue to lead in science and
industry.
-- And an increase in the earned-income tax credit.
2
The agreement will give a shot in the arm to America's job-
generating small and mid-size companies:
And specifically for
-- A thirty percent research and experimentation credit
for small businesses.
--- An adjustment in the tax basis for individuals who
Tax indexing
buy stock in small businesses. companies corporation
-- A tax deduction for investment in small businesses. coupo
-- An expanded ability for small businesses to expense
certain depreciable business property.
secentific equipment
The budget plan will also cut $120 billion in government
spending on entitlement and mandatory programs. Unlike
other such agreements in the past, this is the first time
such cuts will be guaranteed in law. No more smoke and
mirrors. Savings will include:
-- $60 billion from Medicare.
--- $13 billion from Agricultural payments.
-- $4.2 billion in Postal-service reform.
The agreement will also produce $182 billion in
discretionary program savings, including cuts in defense
outlays of $67 billion over three years.
Again, these cuts were made without caving in on raising
individual income-tax rates. The agreement calls for
raising $134 billion in five years. And we can raise this
tax-revenue with these measures:
-- A phased-in increase in the gasoline tax -- five
cents a gallon the first year and another five cents
the next year. This one measure alone will produce the
greatest revenues.
-- Increased taxes on alcohol and cigarettes, as well
as selected luxury items.
The budget discipline of Gramm-Rudman will be extended for
five years and the agreement includes substantial budget-
process reform:
-- Any new entitlement programs must meet hard and fast
"pay as you go" provisions. This means that Congress
will have to raise funds for any future entitlement, or
cut an existing program.
3
-- All discretionary spending by Congress is capped for
the next five years. If Congress spends money it
doesn't have -- a "mini-sequester" will cut it for
them.
These cuts will last, because for the first time
these cuts have teeth.
-- Any new tax cuts have to be matched by an equal
increase in revenues.
-- This package will reform past credit programs that
ignored huge liabilities to the American treasury;
programs like S&L deposit insurance, student loan
guarantees and HUD loan programs.
O
According to the terms of the agreement, the Congress has
until October 19, 1990, to pass government appropriations
bills consistent with the accord.
Congress must act, and act soon. We need measures to boost
economic growth, and solve long-term problems. Most of all, this
is our last best chance to get the federal budget deficit under
control. We can meet the challenge through bipartisan leadership
and quick and decisive action. No one will agree with all
measures, but everyone will benefit in the long-run. We owe this
much to our country, and to generations of Americans to come.
TALKING POINTS ON THE BUDGET AGREEMENT
BRIEFING DROP-BY -- OCTOBER 2, 1990
I met this morning with Republican members of the Congress
to underscore the necessity for quick and decisive action on
the budget agreement through bipartisan leadership in both
Houses. Again, I am calling on Congress to act -- and act
soon -- on this vital legislation.

I understand the Republicans don't like certain aspects of
this deal, and neither do the Democrats. As President, I
don't control the Congress give me a Republican majority,
and I would. But they're not going to do it exactly my way,
so I've had to compromise. Everybody's had to compromise
-- but we did it because the country is at stake. And
that's the difference between governing a nation and playing
politics. I was elected to govern.
As business leaders, you know the time had come to get our

BUDGET REFORM: The budget discipline of Gramm Rudman will
be extended for five years and the agreement includes
substantial budget process reform. For the next five years,
all discretionary spending by Congress is capped.
This budget is tough, but it is fair. It is a solid package
to boost economic growth and solve long term problems --
without having the burden fall entirely on any one group
alone. The time has come to move beyond partisan interests
and put the broad interest of United States first. narrow
Most importantly, this budget agreement is our last, best
chance to get the federal budget deficit under control.
To all you armchair quarterbacks and backseat drivers out
there, I say this: You can pick this package apart, but you
cannot put a better package together.
It's time for action by the Congress, and it's time to end
the talk. With that said, I will end this statement and
take your questions.

TALKING POINTS ON THE BUDGET AGREEMENT
PRESS CONFERENCE -- OCTOBER 2, 1990
this morning
I have just met with Republican members of the Congress
to
underscord
and we agreed that we can have quick and decisive action on
necessity
the budget agreement through bipartisan leadership in both
presenty
Houses. I realize that there has been a lot of controversy
about this compromise over the last 24 hours, but that is
understandable -- like most compromises, it will not satisfy
everyone. But again, I am calling on Congress to act -- and
act soon -- on this vital legislation:
OVERVIEW: The five-year bipartisan budget compromise will
boost America's economic vitality in the long run. It will
give small and medium-size business a shot in the arm and
create jobs.
The budget agreement raises the prospect of a long-term
healthy economy, it raises the potential for growth, it
raises America's ability to compete -- but it does not raise
personal income taxes.
GROWTH INCENTIVES: The agreement includes:
-- incentives for domestic oil and gas development, to
free America from dependence on foreign oil;
-- incentives for the development of enterprise zones,
to create jobs and opportunity;
-- extension of the research and development tax credit
to maintain our competitiveness in the world market.
DOMESTIC CUTS: Our agreement will cut the projected federal
deficit by half-a-trillion dollars -- with $120 billion in
real and lasting spending cuts on entitlement and mandatory
programs. These cuts have teeth -- for the first time, they
will be guaranteed in law. No more smoke and mirrors.
MILITARY CUTS: Although the defense budget is cut by $67
billion over three years -- and more over five years -- our
brave men and women serving in the Persian Gulf will still
get the backing they deserve to accomplish their mission.
BUDGET REFORM: The budget discipline of Gramm Rudman will
be extended for five years and the agreement includes
substantial budget process reform. For the next five years,
all discretionary spending by Congress is capped.
This budget is tough, but it is fair. It is a solid package
to boost economic growth and solve long term problems --
without having the burden fall entirely on any one group
alone. The time has come to move beyond special interests
and put the interest of America first.

chance to get the federal budget deficit under control.
To all the armchair quarterbacks and backseat drivers out
there, I say this: You can pick this package apart, but you
cannot put a better package together.

It's time for action by the Congress, and it's time to end

THE BUDGET SUMMIT AGREEMENT:
SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THE ECONOMY
PART II
(Updating Backgrounder Update No. 140, "The Budget Summit Agreement: Serious Damage to
the Economy, Part I," and Backgrounder No. 787, "Rx for the Federal Deficit: The Four Percent
Solution," October 1, 1990.)
After five months of negotiations, congressional and Administration budget negotiators
produced an agreement which can be only described as deplorable. The package combines the
largest first-year tax increase in America's history, dubious economic assumptions, phony spending
cuts, and inadequate enforcement provisions. At a time when annual economic growth has col-
lapsed to less than one percent, enactment of the agreement surely would throw the nation into
recession. Among the most damaging provisions in the agreement are:
NEW TAXES
Tax revenues are already projected to increase by $397.8 billion between 1990 and 1995, an
average of $80 billion in new money each year. Apparently this flood of new tax revenues is not
enough to quench Capitol Hill's thirst. Thus Congress has demanded and obtained from the budget
agreement $133.8 billion in explicit tax increases over the next five years.
Major provisions include a 12 cents per gallon increase in gasoline taxes, 2 cents of which would
be levied at the wholesale level, raising more than $50 billion over five years. To make matters
much worse, rather than using gas tax revenues for repair and construction of highways and bridges,
the agreement undermines the integrity of the Highway Trust Fund by using half of the money for
general government spending. This thus opens the sluice gates for future gas tax hikes simply to
fund general revenue outlays. Not only is this bad economics, it raises the cost of travel for every
American and undermines one of the nation's most prized characteristics: the easy mobility of
Americans.
In addition, there are higher taxes on aviation. The air passenger ticket will jump by 25 percent.
Domestic air cargo-taxes and aviation fuel taxes also will increase by 25 percent. These taxes will
take nearly $12 billion from the travelling public. America is a large country with a highly mobile
population. Increasing transportation costs has a particularly detrimental impact on the American
economy because of the long distances goods are shipped. Consumers will be particularly hard hit,
making it more expensive to visit family members and make business trips.
The package also increases tobacco, beer, wine, and alcohol excise taxes, raising $10 billion over
five years. What is most alarming about the kind of taxes being raised is that the agreement sets the
precedent for a national sales tax by imposing a 10 percent tax on so-called luxury items, raising
nearly $2 billion. Exactly what constitutes a luxury is defined by Congress. It is certain that Congress
will add new items to this list over time. The negotiators pulled a tried and true budget gimmick out
of the hat. They claim that through stricter enforcement, the Internal Revenue Service can collect
$9.4 billion in new revenues.
In addition to a wide range of taxes on American businesses, the package also destroys the in-
surance nature of Medicare by raising the cap on income subject to the payroll tax from $51,300 to
$73,000. Furthermore, the agreement undermines the protections in the tax code for home owner-
ship, state and local taxation, and charitable deductions by restricting the use of itemized deduc-
tions.
The agreement contains more tax increases than meet the eye. In what surely must be a
deliberate attempt by the White House and Congress to deceive the public, they are including
several tax increases in the "spending cut" portion of the package. The monthly tax that senior
citizens pay to Medicare will be increased, but the revenues generated by that change are counted
as a spending cut. Seventeen different "fees" are to be increased, generating an additional $14.2 bil-
lion in revenue for the government over the next five years, yet this money is to be counted as a
spending cut. Nearly $5.4 billion of the supposed five-year spending cuts are actually revenues
being transferred to the general budget from the Postal Service, which is now off-budget, resulting
in no real savings.
Worse still, the agreement contains an automatic tax increase provision by requiring that any fu-
ture tax cuts be offset by tax increases. Had it been in effect, this provision would have prevented
the enactment of Ronald Reagan's Economic Recovery and Tax Act in 1981. At the very least, this
provision effectively eliminates any opportunity to pass tax-cut legislation to pull the economy out
of the recession which the budget agreement will cause.
DUBIOUS ECONOMIC ASSUMPTIONS
White House and congressional negotiators agreed to "cook the books" to minimize the obvious
negative effects of the agreement. While most economists agree that the package will reduce
economic growth, the budget summiteers somehow make the assumption that enactment of the
package will nearly double the rate of economic growth next year. from 0.7 percent to 1.3 percent,
and almost triple growth in 1992, from 1.3 percent to 3.8 percent.
Herbert Hoover thought tax increases would strengthen the economy in 1930. He was wrong; a
recession became a depression. More ominously, the budget agreement would push taxes to nearly
20 percent of Gross National Product (GNP). The only two occasions in peacetime that taxes
reached 20 percent of GNP, in 1969 and 1981, the economy fell into recession the following year. A
recession is the biggest enemy of the budget deficit: The Congressional Budget Office estimates
that the deficit would increase by $32 billion for each percentage point that the unemployment rate
is higher than projected.
Negotiators have stated explicitly that they want the Federal Reserve Board to adopt an easy
money policy in response to the agreement. Yet they ignore the inflationary impact of such a policy
by assuming that the inflation rate, as measured by the GNP deflator, will fall to 2.8 percent by
1995. Since government spending is often tied to the price level, a more realistic inflation estimate
2
would expose how much spending will actually increase compared to what is claimed in the agree-
ment.
Perhaps the most unrealistic element of the package is the assumption that interest rates will
decline. More than $64 billion of the alleged savings hinges on the interest rate on three-month
Treasury bills falling to 4.2 percent and rates for 10-year Treasury notes dropping to 5.3 percent.
Since interest rates normally rise and fall with changes in the inflation rate, this assumption has no
credibility.
PHONY SPENDING CUTS
Negotiators are trying to sell the agreement as one of "shared pain." Other than the fact that the
defense budget is projected to decline by $8 billion, from $300 billion this year to $292 billion in
1993, there are absolutely no cuts in spending. Even excluding the costs of the deposit insurance
bailout, total spending under the agreement will rise by more than $220 billion over the next five
years.
Since Congress has violated the spending limits in every previous budget agreement, it is a sure
bet that spending actually will climb considerably more than the $220 billion already projected.
Once realistic interest rate and inflation rate projections are included, any hope of limiting spend-
ing increases to $220 billion disappears. Furthermore, if a recession occurs, as many economists
predict, spending on welfare and unemployment programs automatically will rise beyond currently
projected levels.
INADEQUATE ENFORCEMENT
If history serves as a guide, the meager budget process reforms included in the agreement will fail
to break the chronic cycle of tax and spend. Major reforms were completely rejected.
The package does not include a balanced budget amendment. The President was not granted a
line-item veto. The current services budget, the feature that allows the negotiators to pretend they
are cutting spending when outlays are actually rising, remains untouched. Minor revisions are made
by the agreement to strengthen the Gramm-Rudman Deficit Reduction Act. Yet even with these
changes, the law can still be waived by the Rules Committee in the House and by 60 votes in the
Senate.
CONCLUSION
In 1982, the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act (TEFRA) was enacted with the promise
that every dollar of higher taxes would be accompanied by three dollars of spending cuts. The
higher taxes became law, but spending actually increased by more than $200 billion over the follow-
ing three years. This week's proposed budget agreement makes TEFRA look good by comparison.
If enacted, the current agreement is almost certain to push the economy into a recession. What
few savings exist on the spending side are almost wholly dependent on unrealistic economic assump-
tions. The budget agreement effectively repeals Reaganomics and will put an end to the economic
prosperity America experienced during the 1980s.

V. Programmatic Impacts
Reducing the Agency's budget by 31.9% would have severe programmatic
impacts. The following are many of the programs that would not be able to be
implemented or that would be largely curtailed.
Implementation of the Clean Air Act, which is the top priority of the Agency and
a priority of the President and Congress, would be severely curtailed. State/local
grants for emissions monitoring would be reduced. This would limit the ability of
states to enforce emissions standards, thus causing a deterioration in air quality,
and could impact up to 1,100 state and local employees.
Funding reduction would result in the Agency's inability to certify 1993 model
automobiles for production, thus limiting domestic and foreign production and
severely impacting employment in the auto industry and related industries.
Ninety communities would be unable to construct wastewater treatment facilities
due to reduction in State Revolving Fund construction grants, and a $20 million
reduction in SRF administration funds might affect hundreds of state or contract
employees. In addition, funds for technical assistance to small systems would be
reduced by 70%, which would impact the drinking water supply of approximately
20% of the population.
The radiological emergency response team, capable of assisting in the event of a
nuclear incident, could not be maintained.
Due to reductions in Superfund activity, approximately 7 billion gallons of
contaminated groundwater will go untreated, thereby threatening the drinking
water systems of over 3 million people.
Decreased funding would cause a significant reduction in technical assistance
and training to states and communities for chemical accident emergency
response plans. States and communities would be less prepared, thus potentially
increasing the public's risk of exposure to dangerous chemicals.
State cooperative agreements for LUST would be reduced by $17 million, limiting
the ability of states to monitor leakage of underground petroleum storage tanks.
This would increase the risk of undetected leakage as well as result in RIFs at the
state level.
Funding reduction would reduce chemical review decisions, potentially allowing
dangerous chemicals to remain in the marketplace.
Funding reduction would eliminate State Asbestos Cooperative Agreements, and
reduce compliance monitoring, potentially increasing exposure to dangerous
levels of asbestos.
Would reduce frequency of monitor ocean dumping, Great Lakes, atmospheric
deposition, and fish and sediment toxics sampling.
If sequestration occurs, 80 new remedial actions for lead under Superfund would
not be initiated, thus worsening environmental conditions at these sites.
Sequestration would have the following effects on RCRA programs:
1. The sequestration would cause curtailment of current corrective actions and
halt all new corrective actions. Further, discovery of violations would not be
followed up with enforcement action.
2. Regulations such as hazardous waste listings of refinery waste and landfill
liner and leak detection would be delayed or cancelled.
3. Development of standards for municipal combustion ash, mining, and oil and
gas wastes would not be addressed.
Further action on wetlands protection, a priority of the President, would be
severely restricted.
In addition to reductions to the drinking water and wastewater programs
mentioned previously, EPA-State partnerships would deteriorate, thus slowing
implementation of programs in the future even if funding is restored.
Oil spill prevention measures such as Spill Prevention Control and -
Countermeasure (SPCC) inspections for holding tanks and land transportation
may not be possible.

STATEMENT REGARDING THE EFFECTS OF FURLOUGH
The Department of Commerce will manage the furlough of employees
under any sequestration as efficiently and compassionately as
possible while complying with the Gramm-Rudman-Hollings law.
& 1 SEE CARD
the
What is the effect of sequestration on The Department of Veterans
Affairs?
It will not have any effect on our medical services, because they
are protected by law. However, our benefits such as the
processing of mortgages and GI bill educational benefits will be
affected. In addition, our cemeteries will have to shut down at
least two days a week. Burials would be held on alternate days.
The sequestration will cause a major disruption of our benefit
program, especially the special personal contact the veteran has
with the VA. However, we are properly protected from any adverse
impact on our medical services.

MAJOR EFFECTS OF FY 1991 SEQUESTER
(All estimates are preliminary)
Drug Enforcement Administration:
o
Summary -- DEA's total reduction in budget authority would
be approximately $186 million. This would result in a loss
of 1/3 of DEA's Special Agent strength at a time when drug
law enforcement remains a high priority.
Furloughs -- Every DEA employee would be furloughed for 65
days. Approximate cut: $76 million, close to 1,300 FTE, a
over 600 Special Agent FTE.
Headquarters Operating Accounts -- Approximate cut: close
to 859 million. Each headquarters operating account would
be reduced. This includes DEA training, information
systems, the aviation and intelligence programs, EPIC,
budgeting and accounting, facilities management, personnel,
and technical operations. Reductions will require a
dramatic decrease in services in all areas, elimination of
travel, and cancellation of most contract activity. The
cancellation of contracts may lead to monetary penalties
which could exceed the monies saved.
O
Field Operations and PE/PI -- Approximate cut:
$22 million. Each DEA program operating account will be
reduced. This includes State and local task forces,
diversion control activities, intelligence collection,
domestic marijuana eradication, Special Enforcement
Operations and Programs, drug evidence analysis, and other
domestic enforcement operations. Drastic reductions in
DEA's support to the Andean initiative, an Administration
priority, also will be required.
O
Hiring Freeze -- Overtime and performance awards would be
eliminated. Approximate cut: S16 million, over 230 FTE,
including more than 60 Special Agent FTE.
o
Permanent Change of Duty Station (PCS) -- Approximate cut:
$7 million. This reduction could not only compromise the
lives of Special Agents and their families if they cannot be
relocated after threats, but also would seriously affect
DEA's carser development program for Special Agents.

Federal Bureau of Investigation:
0
Summary -- The total reduction in budget authority would be
approximately $48 million. For FBI's drug enforcement
budget decision unit only, this would result in a reduction
of 255 Special Agent FTE and 189 support personnel FTE.
These reductions would jeopardize FBI's ongoing drug
trafficking investigations, HIDTA activities, intelligence
gathering, NDIC support, and task force involvement.
Specific effects in the drugs decision unit are highlighted
below.
Furloughs -- Approximate cut: $5 million. All drug
enforcement personnel would be furloughed for 22 days during
the first 7 pay periods. This would be a reduction of 71
Special Agent FTE and 55 support FTE.
RIF's -- Approximate cut: $17 million. During the last
three quarters of the fiscal year there would be a
reduction-in-force (RIF) of 184 Special Agent FTE and 134
support FTE.
Nonpersonnel Funding Reductions -- Approximate cut:
$10 million.
Hiring Freeze and Elimination of Overtime -- Approximate
cut: $2 million.
Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS)
The Border Patrol program would furlough staff 24 days.
Using the current on board strength of 4,397, this
translates into a reduction of 289 FTE in the border patrol
program.
INS estimates that it would realize 5,000 fewer seizures
less per year from the reduction in the Border Patrol
Program.
Air flights to patrol the border would be reduced from an
average of 6 hours per day to 2 hours per day. Vehicles
used to patrol the border would be used substantially less,
but the extent of the decrease is unknown at this time.
Bureau of Prisons
The Bureau of Prisons (BOP) would eliminate training,
administrative travel, equipment, and costs associated with
prison management changes. Contract confinement would be
cut by 3,000 beds, and a hiring freeze would be instituted
immediately, preventing 3,000 new prison beds from being

activated. The hiring freeze and contract confinement would
increase prison overcrowding from 70% above capacity to
between 85% and 90% above capacity. All BOP staff,
including guards, would be furloughed for 82 days, and
inmate programs would be reduced by 32 percent, increasing
inmate idleness.
Office of Justice Programs
0
State and local grants administered by the Bureau of Justice
Programs under OJP would be reduced by $176 million, or 40%,
below the President's Budget request. Other OJP reductions
would be taken in criminal justice research ($5 million) and
juvenile programs ($2 million).
U.S. Customs Service
Investigative cases related to drug interdiction would be
reduced or delayed and the number of new cases accepted
would be restricted. Arrests and indictments could be
reduced as much as 40 percent.
The air program would furlough pilots up to 75 days each.
This would drastically reduce Customs capacity to respond to
air smugglers, whose efforts are not curtailed by budget
cuts. The marine program will conduct fewer patrols. Up to
a 50 percent reduction in air and marine missions could
occur.
Sharing with State and local governments could decline by as
much as 50 percent.
Customs would significantly reduce container inspections and
special enforcement "Blitzes and "Special Operations" would
be eliminated.
U.S. Coast Guard
Only civilian personnel can be furloughed. Coast Guard
personnel are exempted, as is military personnel. This
means that the sequester would fall harder on equipment
purchases.
The Coast Guard would defer purchase of helicopters and
vessels that were to be procured to augment OPBAT and
general drug program operations.
Coast Guard operations, especially drug patrols, would be
greatly curtailed.

Department of Defense post sequester impact statement *
o
Reduces in half the President's DoD interdiction and
counterdrug efforts. Resultant amount is 32% lower than the
FY 1990 level of effort.
o
The post sequester amount will likely force a slowdown of
DoD's relatively young interdiction and counterdrug
activities. Specifically, it may:
-- Reduce Operation TEMPO to below the FY 1990 level of
effort;
-- Significantly scale back the prevention and education
-- program; Stretch out the detection and monitoring program over
the next few years; and,
--
Eliminate both the Over-The-Horizon Backscatter radar
system and the Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, and halt the
procurement of the Southern Command's counterdrug
management system.

Bureau of International Narcotics Matters
A sequester would reduce the State Department's Bureau of
International Narcotics Matters' (INM) FY 1991 budget from
$150 million to $80 million.

This cut would make it either impossible to fund fully the
Andean Strategy--the centerpiece of the President's
international narcotics control policy--or cut deeply into
non-Andean programs.

FY 1991 is the first year of significantly expanded economic
aid for the Andean Strategy.
A sequester of Economic Support Fund (ESF) assistance would
virtually wipe out the economic assistance component of the
Andean Strategy, precluding any possibility of ameliorating
or even cushioning the potential negative economic impact of
successful drug enforcement efforts.
Military Assistance
A sequester of the Foreign Military Financing (FMF) and
International Military Education and Training (IMET)
accounts would make it virtually impossible to provide vital
military assistance to the Andes.
Military assistance is needed to create the favorable
conditions under which host country police units can
successfully pursue the goals of the anti-drug Andean
Strategy.
Alcohol, Drug Abuse, and Mental Health Administration
The ADMS Block Grant program would be reduced to
approximately $377.5 million, $100 million below the 1990
base and $200 million below the President's 1991 request.
The funding cut would result in the reduction of 28,000
federally funded treatment equivalent slots.
Funding for grants administered by the Office of Treatment
Improvement would be reduced to approximately $50.4 million,
$21.3 million below the 1990 base and $72 million below the
President's 1992 request. Not only would the funding cut
prevent the expansion of these activities in FY 1991, it
would also result in drastically reducing the number of

Management and Budget
SUBJECT: Agency Plans for 1991 Sequester - -- INFORMATION
In preparing for the FY 1991 sequester, the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) has requested plans describing how the
Department would manage required reductions. Below are some of
the funding actions which would be required under a 31.9 percent
sequester. These actions assume a full-year sequester, which as
we know is highly unlikely.
Public Health Service
D
Biomedical Research funded by ADAMHA and NIH would be
reduced by $3.5 billion (from a FY 1990 level of
$8.4 billion) resulting in a reduction of approximately
3,900 research project grants (from 22,602 in 1990) and
4,400 research trainees (from 13,125 in 1990). Those
research grants funded would be subject to downward
negotiations of up to 30 percent.
D
Drug Abuse treatment and prevention efforts would be
severely curtailed. Treatment capacity would be reduced by
over 30,000 slots. No new prevention demonstrations would
be initiated and funding for ongoing projects would be cut
by 30 percent.
o
State and local health agencies would lose over $580 million
in federal assistance, as a result of reductions in block
grant funding.
o
FDA would have to severely curtail all its inspection and
review operations, opening the possibility of contaminated
blood and delaying review of new drug applications.
o
Reductions in CDC programs would result in no vaccinations
for 1.6 million children, closure of 4 of the 11 STD
Prevention and Training Centers, and elimination of lead
poison screening for 22,000 children.

FY 1991 Sequester Plan
Summary
Actions already taken to increase FY 1990 carryover balances:
Department-wide freeze on hiring.
Department-wide freeze on non-essential travel, training and overtime.
Department-wide review of contractual actions to determine those which can be
phased or otherwise delayed.
Fifteen Day Plan
Personnel Actions
Federal employees:
OMB has indicated that unobligated balances will be made available and
may be used to mitigate the impact of the sequester.
Therefore no employees will need to be furloughed during the period
October 1-15, 1990.
Contractor employees:
DP would employ contractor staff 18,447 fewer days, the equivalent of
laying off 1,677 persons for the entire fifteen day period.
Programmatic impacts
Restart of P and L Reactors delayed 1-2 months.
Full Year Plan
Personnel Actions
Federal employees:
It would be necessary to furlough the equivalent of 900 staff years.
Contractor employees:
Furlough/layoff over 52,000 contractor staff years.
Because of contractual requirements, some contractors cannot furlough, but
must lay off employees to achieve reductions.
This great a loss of scientific expertise would adversely impact the
Department's programs for many years in the future.

FROM:
ASSISTANT TO THE PRESIDENT FOR
MANAGEMENT AND ADMINISTRATION
SUBJECT:
Furlough Decision Notice
By written notice of August 30, 1990, you were notified of a
proposal to furlough you.
This is to notify you that the White House Office has determined
that a furlough will be necessary and that all of the reasons for
the furlough, as stated in the notice of the proposal, remain
valid. The procedures and conditions related to the furlough as
proposed have been determined to be the most equitable means of
implementing the furlough. Therefore, you will be required to be
on a discontinuous furlough during the period beginning October
1, 1990 through December 28, 1990.
In accordance with the procedures and conditions outlined in the
notice of proposal, as a full-time employee, you will be
furloughed for no more than 176 hours between October 1, 1990 and
December 28, 1990. Your maximum furlough hours will be 176
hours. This schedule is based on your regular work schedule of
80 hours per pay period. If you are a part-time employee the
number of hours required for furlough will be prorated. You will
be informed of the amount of furlough required prior to each pay
period. To schedule your furlough days or to request Leave
Without Pay (LWOP) in lieu of furlough, you should contact your
supervisor.
When you are on furlough, you will be in a nonpay, nonduty
status. During the furlough, you will not be permitted to serve
as an unpaid volunteer, and must remain away from your workplace.
The attached Furlough Decision Notice requires your signature.
Please sign it and submit it to the administrative contact in
your office.
We recognize the difficult personal financial implications of any
furlough no matter how limited its length. We will make every
effort to keep you informed as additional information regarding
this agency's funding level becomes available. If you have any
questions concerning employee furloughs, please contact White
House Personnel.

MAJOR EFFECTS OF FY 1991 SEQUESTER
(All estimates are preliminary)
Drug Enforcement Administration:
Summary -- DEA's total reduction in budget authority would
be approximately $186 million. This would result in a loss
of 1/3 of DEA's Special Agent strength at a time when drug
law enforcement remains a high priority.
Furloughs -- Every DEA employee would be furloughed for 65
days. Approximate cut: $76 million, close to 1,300 FTE, a
over 600 Special Agent FTE.
0
Headquarters Operating Accounts - -- Approximate cut: close
to 859 million. Each headquarters operating account would
be reduced. This includes DEA training, information
systems, the aviation and intelligence programs, EPIC,
budgeting and accounting, facilities management, personnel,
and technical operations. Reductions will require a
dramatic decrease in services in all areas, elimination of
travel, and cancellation of most contract activity. The
cancellation of contracts may lead to monetary penalties
which could exceed the monies saved.
0
Field Operations and PE/PI -- Approximate cut:
$22 million. Each DEA program operating account will be
reduced. This includes State and local task forces,
diversion control activities, intelligence collection,
domestic marijuana eradication, Special Enforcement
Operations and Programs, drug evidence analysis, and other
domestic enforcement operations. Drastic reductions in
DEA's support to the Andean initiative, an Administration
priority, also will be required.
o
Hiring Freeze -- Overtime and performance awards would be
eliminated. Approximate cut: $16 million, over 230 FTE,
including more than 60 Special Agent FTE.
o
Permanent Change of Duty Station (PCS) -- Approximate cut:
$7 million. This reduction could not only compromise the
lives of Special Agents and their families if they cannot be
relocated after threats, but also would seriously affect
DEA's career development program for Special Agents.
ONDCP -- 8/29/90
1
78
10a
Federal Bureau of Investigation:
Summary -- The total reduction in budget authority would be
approximately $48 million. For FBI's drug enforcement
budget decision unit only, this would result in a reduction
of 255 Special Agent FTE and 189 support personnel FTE.
These reductions would jeopardize FBI's ongoing drug
trafficking investigations, HIDTA activities, intelligence
gathering, NDIC support, and task force involvement.
Specific effects in the drugs decision unit are highlighted
below.
o
Furloughs -- Approximate cut: $5 million. All drug
enforcement personnel would be furloughed for 22 days during
the first 7 pay periods. This would be a reduction of 71
Special Agent FTE and 55 support FTE.
RIF's -- Approximate cut: $17 million. During the last
three quarters of the fiscal year there would be a
reduction-in-force (RIF) of 184 Special Agent FTE and 134
support FTE.
Nonpersonnel Funding Reductions -- Approximate cut:
$10 million.
Hiring Freeze and Elimination of Overtime -- Approximate
cut: $2 million.
Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS)
The Border Patrol program would furlough staff 24 days.
Using the current on board strength of 4,397, this
translates into a reduction of 289 FTE in the border patrol
program.
INS estimates that it would realize 5,000 fewer seizures
less per year from the reduction in the Border Patrol
Program.
Air flights to patrol the border would be reduced from an
average of 6 hours per day to 2 hours per day. Vehicles
used to patrol the border would be used substantially less,
but the extent of the decrease is unknown at this time.
Bureau of Prisons
The Bureau of Prisons (BOP) would eliminate training,
administrative travel, equipment, and costs associated with
prison management changes. Contract confinement would be
cut by 3,000 beds, and a hiring freeze would be instituted
immediately, preventing 3,000 new prison beds from being

activated. The hiring freeze and contract confinement would
increase prison overcrowding from 70% above capacity to
between 85% and 90% above capacity. All BOP staff,
including guards, would be furloughed for 82 days, and
inmate programs would be reduced by 32 percent, increasing
inmate idleness.
Office of Justice Programs
0
State and local grants administered by the Bureau of Justice
Programs under OJP would be reduced by $176 million, or 40%,
below the President's Budget request. Other OJP reductions
would be taken in criminal justice research ($5 million) and
juvenile programs ( $2 million).
U.S. Customs Service
0
Investigative cases related to drug interdiction would be
reduced or delayed and the number of new cases accepted
would be restricted. Arrests and indictments could be
reduced as much as 40 percent.
The air program would furlough pilots up to 75 days each.
This would drastically reduce Customs capacity to respond to
air smugglers, whose efforts are not curtailed by budget
cuts. The marine program will conduct fewer patrols. Up to
a 50 percent reduction in air and marine missions could
occur.
o
Sharing with State and local governments could decline by as
much as 50 percent.
Customs would significantly reduce container inspections and
special enforcement "Blitzes and "Special Operations" would
be eliminated.
U.S. Coast Guard
0
Only civilian personnel can be furloughed. Coast Guard
personnel are exempted, as is military personnel. This
means that the sequester would fall harder on equipment
purchases.
O
The Coast Guard would defer purchase of helicopters and
vessels that were to be procured to augment OPBAT and
general drug program operations.
0
Coast Guard operations, especially drug patrols, would be
greatly curtailed.

Department of Defense post sequester impact statement *
o
Reduces in half the President's DOD interdiction and
counterdrug efforts. Resultant amount is 32% lower than the
FY 1990 level of effort.
The post sequester amount will likely force a slowdown of
DOD's relatively young interdiction and counterdrug
activities. Specifically, it may:
-- Reduce Operation TEMPO to below the FY 1990 level of
effort;
-- Significantly scale back the prevention and education
program;
-- Stretch out the detection and monitoring program over
the next few years; and,
-- Eliminate both the Over-The-Horizon Backscatter radar
system and the Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, and halt the
procurement of the Southern Command's counterdrug
management system.
* Post Sequester impact statement is an ONDCP estimate only.
DoD would not speculate at this time.

Bureau of International Narcotics Matters
A sequester would reduce the State Department's Bureau of
International Narcotics Matters' (INM) FY 1991 budget from
$150 million to $80 million.
This cut would make it either impossible to fund fully the
Andean Strategy--the centerpiece of the President's
international narcotics control policy--or cut deeply into
non-Andean programs.
Agency for International Development (AID)
FY 1991 is the first year of significantly expanded economic
aid for the Andean Strategy.
A sequester of Economic Support Fund (ESF) assistance would
virtually wipe out the economic assistance component of the
Andean Strategy, precluding any possibility of ameliorating
or even cushioning the potential negative economic impact of
successful drug enforcement efforts.
Military Assistance
A sequester of the Foreign Military Financing (FMF) and
International Military Education and Training (IMET)
accounts would make it virtually impossible to provide vital
military assistance to the Andes.
Military assistance is needed to create the favorable
conditions under which host country police units can
successfully pursue the goals of the anti-drug Andean
Strategy.
Alcohol, Drug Abuse, and Mental Health Administration
The ADMS Block Grant program would be reduced to
approximately $377.5 million, $100 million below the 1990
base and $200 million below the President's 1991 request.
The funding cut would result in the reduction of 28,000
federally funded treatment equivalent slots.
Funding for grants administered by the Office of Treatment
Improvement would be reduced to approximately $50.4 million,
$21.3 million below the 1990 base and $72 million below the
President's 1992 request. Not only would the funding cut
prevent the expansion of these activities in FY 1991, it
would also result in drastically reducing the number of
awards continued next year. These activities include grants

for target cities, critical populations, and offender
populations.
Funding for grants administered by the Office of Substance
Abuse Prevention would be reduced to approximately $85.5
million, $35.5 million below the 1990 base and $98.5 million
below the President's 1991 request. Not only would the
funding prevent the expansion of these activities in FY
1991, it would also result in drastically reducing the
number of awards continued next year. These activities
include grants for community partnerships, at-risk youth,
and pregnant women.
Department of Education
0
Funding for the Drug Free Schools and Communities State
grants would be reduced to approximately $309.2 million,
$128.6 million below the 1990 base and $178.6 million below
the President's 1991 request. The funding cut would reduce
the average per pupil funding from $7.39 (1991 request) to
slightly more than five dollars.

May 6 -- Taking the initiative, the President calls the bipartisan leadership of Congress to the White
House to outline the two fundamental reasons for a budget summit:
-- The economic growth and stability of the nation, and
-- Avoiding sequestration, the across-the-board cuts in federal spending which will automatically take
place on October 15, 1990, unless the government acts to cut the deficit.
May 15 -- Once again, the President meets with the Congressional budget negotiators at the White
House to lay the groundwork for the summit meetings.
-- Despite the Budget Summit negotiations and promises of good faith, it's business-as-usual on Capitol
Hill. The House Appropriations committee begins action on appropriations bills with no apparent regard
for current budget constraints, fiscal reality, or ongoing negotiations.
Early June The Administration's negotiators ask the Democrats for more of everything: more meet-
ings, more progress and more work.
-- Meanwhile, back in Congress, Democratic Committee Chairmen appeal to negotiators to
protect their pet programs and pork barrel projects from any spending cuts.
June 20 -- The Administration cuts its budget to save over $50 billion in 1991. Plans include new reduc-
tions in defense and entitlement programs.
June-July Predictably, more business-as-usual in Congress. Various House and Senate committees
have passed new spending bills that bust the budget. These include:
-- Child care bill: $20 billion over the Administration request for 5 years.
-- Farm bill: $7-9 billion over the current law baseline for 5 years.
-- Housing bill: $5 billion over the Administration request for one year.
-- AIDS prevention: $3-4 billion over the Administration request for 5 years.
-- Education bill: $916.8 million over the Administration request for one year.
Democrat negotiators refuse to discuss spending cuts in advance of a Presidential commitment to discuss revenue
increases.
June 26-28 -- The President meets with the bipartisan leadership and issues a statement clearly stating
that he will consider tax revenue increases, among five other proposals.
-- Focusing on taxes to the exclusion of every other proposal, Democrat party officials and Congressmen
stage "read his lips" media blitz to highlight Presidential statement on revenue increases.
-- Despite the President's statement that there would be "no preconditions," Senator Mitchell said that
when it came to accepting a capital gains cut without an income tax increase, "There are certain points
beyond which you cannot go."
-- The Senate Budget Committee votes on a make-believe resolution that contains billions in make-believe
savings.
July 5 -- Despite the Congressional recess, Administration negotiators and staff meet with Congres-
sional staff to convene a special Task Force on credit reform proposals.
-- Budget reform, one of the explicit goals of the summit, is thrown out the window when the Senate
Budget Committee votes on a budget process reform bill that weakens the budget process.
July 16 Midyear budget revisions - The Administration issues a complete update of the estimates of the
budget deficit, revising the estimate to nearly $169 billion.
-- At a ridiculous pace, overspending in the House appropriations bills climbs during July. Discretionary
appropriation bills are off the charts - $25 billion over 1990 enacted levels, and $14 billion over the
Administration request.
July 17 -- The House kills a constitutional amendment to require a balanced budget. Nearly all Republi-
cans (169 of 174) support it, but a majority of Democrats (145 of 255) vote against it.

July 26 -- Both sides agree to put budget plans on the table. The Administration and Republican
negotiators develop a plan to produce $50 billion savings in the first year and $500 billion in savings
over 5 years.
-- No plan from the Democrats.
-- Administration states and restates its willingness to exchange offers.
July 31 -- When in doubt, go back on recess. Unable and unwilling to come up with their own plan,
Democrats propose to delay exchange until after the August recess. Eighty six days after the President
called on Democrat leaders to work out a bipartisan budget solution, they had yet to offer one single
proposal.
August 1 -- Enough is enough. The President announces he will veto each and every spending bill the
Democrats write that busts the budget, and tells Republicans in Congress that when it comes to dealing with
the Democrats, all bets are off.
Here's a Few Examples of What the $100 billion Sequester Will Mean:
The following are just a few of the effects should a sequester order take place on October 15, 1990:
For defense, reductions of up to one million military
personnel, about half the force, if military personnel are
not exempted. And if military personnel are exempted,
reductions-in-force or furloughs of up to 850,000
defense civilian employees along with a severe degrada-
tion of military force readiness.
For the Federal Aviation Administration, major cutbacks
in air traffic controllers, extensive closure of facilities,
PHOTO
the curtailment or removal from service of over 100 air
traffic control towers, a substantial reduction in the
number of flights, and an increase in traveler delays of
400 to 600 percent.
For Superfund, a halt in all new cleanups of toxic waste
sites.
For INS, no new hiring of Border Patrol staff and
building of new traffic checkpoints to intercept drug
and alien smugglers.
For white collar crime, a drop of about 25 percent in
completed investigations and about 1,000 fewer convic-
tions. Prosecution of those who have perpetrated S &
L institutions fraud would be slowed.

Presidential Statement on Budget Negotiations
As the budget negotiators continue their meetings this
afternoon, I want to make it clear to the American people that
the goal of these negotiations is unchanged: we must fix the
federal budget mess and the federal budget process mess once and
for all.
A budget deficit agreement is necessary to help maintain our
economic vitality, our competitiveness and our growth in job
opportunities. There are several tests this agreement must meet.
I will insist on an agreement that really does promote economic
growth. I will insist on an agreement that is fair, credible,
and real -- and it must contain real spending cuts. And, I will
insist on an agreement that addresses reform of the budget
process itself.
I will not accept a temporary quick-fix that sweeps this
problem under the rug. I will not accept a deal that fails to
address in a fool proof way the government's deficits. We must
have a five-year, $500 billion plan that keeps our country
strong, competitive, and puts us on the path to long-term
economic health.
In the absence of a budget agreement, the law requires that
sequester will begin in just over a week. We are now nine days
and counting. A credible budget agreement will enable us to
prevent the unnecessary disruptions that come with the automatic
spending cuts mandated by sequester.
Finally, some have suggested that we put off dealing with
this issue until after the November elections. My answer to that
is simple: No way. We must get this job done, and get it done
now.
DEPARTURE STATEMENT FOR OCTOBER 19, 1990
Last night, the Congress took another stop toward resolving
the budget crisis by passing the Senate package, one which offers
real hope of a sound budget agreement. There may be light at the
end of the tunnel now, but I want to be sure it won't be an
oncoming train. So I would like to make a few comments before
Congress sends me a final version.
As I've said from the start, I am determined to get a budget
agreement that is good for America -- cutting the budget deficit
by $500 bilion over the next five years. And I am just as
determined to continue economic growth. And that means serious
deficit reduction so that interest rates can come down, enabling
people to afford homes and cars, and allowing businesses to
invest in new jobs. That means holding the line on higher income
taxes for the working men and women of this country. This week,
we saw some liberal Democrats in Congress try to pull a fast one
on the American people -- by removing indexing. That may sound
complicated, but the result is simple: higher income taxes on
working Americans. I simply will not stand for this. I want an
agreement that protects the working families' budgets from being
ambushed by a Congress that can't control its own spending.
Make no mistake about it: I will hold the Congress' feet to
the fire, and fight the tax-and-spend crowd to the end. I will
only sign an agreement that makes real progress on reducing the
deficit, with enforceable spending restraints that stick.
And finally, I want a new budget process that puts the national
interest -- not the special interests -- first. Because I don't
want the Congress to drag the American people through a process
like this ever again.
I am waiting for an agreement I can sign, and the American
people are waiting. They deserve nothing less.

going his way and with the focus on exciting events
abroad, it did not matter that President Bush seemed
determined to be the Mediocre Communicator. It did
not matter that he had a vaccuum where his middle
layer of White House expertise should have been, or
that the jobs involving lobbying, imagery, communi-
cation, speechwriting and political strategizing had
all been downgraded to near oblivion.
After President Bush and Mr. Sununu, there IS, a
sheer drop in the ability of anyone to talk for the
White House or act on Mr. Bush's behalf. When the
Republican party chief, Lee Atwater, became ill, Mr.
Sununu assumed that he could take on political
strategizing himself. But as It turned out, no one was
looking at the big picture.
The Plunge
None of this mattered until the budget deal col-
lapsed and it became apparent to panicked Republi-
cans that the White House had no fallback strategy.
The crisis underscored the weaknesses in the Bush
White House: the lack of any unified voice, the dearth
of talented professionals making sure the White
House point of view was represented in articles,the
lack of any long-term or even short-term political
strategy, the inability of Mr. Bush to articulate a
persuasive case for his goals on television. All these
problems combined to turn the President's stumble
on the budget deal into a free-fall that set pundits
talking about "the disintegration" of the Bush Presi-
dency.
White House officials are trying to figure out how
they can put their acts back together. Republicans
hope Mr. Bush can be persuaded that paying atten-
tion to orchestrating strategy and showcasing the
agenda is not the same as selling the Presidency like
soap.
Roger Ailes, who was Mr. Bush's campaign media
strategist, would certainly be available to help. Mr.
Alles is a firm believer that governing well requires
a professional presentation to win the consent of the
governed.
As he once put it: "The reality is that every
successful politician in the history of the world had
people around to make them look good. Who do you
think told Caesar to wear the purple cape? Who do
you think told him he needed six horses pulling a
chariot instead of just four? Why do you think he rode
through Rome denying he wanted to be king? Who do
you think thought that up, him? C'mon!'

Honorable Thomas S. Foley
Speaker of the House of Representatives
Washington, D.C. 20510
Dear Mr. Speaker:
Section 221 of the Legislative Reorganization Act of 1970 requires that the President transmit
to the Congress a supplemental summary of the budget that was transmitted to the Congress earlier
in the year. This supplemental summary of the budget, commonly known as the Mid-Session Review,
contains:
revised estimates of the budget receipts, outlays and budget authority for fiscal years 1990-1995;
revised estimates of the baseline used under the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit
Control Act to determine if automatic spending reductions are to be triggered;
economic assumptions underlying the data;
a summary of estimated outlays in each of the first four years after fiscal year 1991 that will
be required under continuing programs that have a legal commitment for future years or are
considered mandatory under existing law; and
a summary of estimated outlays in future years from balances carried over from fiscal year
1991.
At the President's direction, I have the honor to transmit the required Mid-Session Review of the
budget.
Respectfully yours,
Richard G. Darman
Director
Enclosure
IDENTICAL LETTER SENT TO THE HONORABLE DAN QUAYLE
V
INTRODUCTION
An annual Mid-Session Review of the Federal budget has been required since the Legislative
Reorganization Act of 1970. Later legislation has expanded the information required to be included
in the Mid-Session Review, most recently the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Reaf-
firmation Act of 1987 (commonly known as the Gramm-Rudman-Hollings Act, or G-R-H).
Consistent with the amended law, this document, prepared by the Office of Management and
Budget, updates budget baseline estimates for:
changes in economic assumptions (described at page 2);
changes in technical estimates of receipts and outlays (discussed at pages 4 and 6);
enacted legislation (discussed at page 8); and
changes in Presidential policy, which seeks major multi-year deficit reduction through prompt
and responsible conclusion of the current Bipartisan Summit Negotiations on the Budget.
As required by law, the Mid-Session Review also updates the G-R-H baseline outlays, receipts,
and deficit-in light of changed economic assumptions, technical reestimates, enacted legislation,
promulgated regulations, and other policy actions (page 11).
The law also requires the Office of Management and Budget to calculate required sequester
amounts-across-the-board cuts-as may be necessary to achieve the G-R-H targets. The initial report
on required sequester amounts must be published officially on August 25. Because the likely sequester
requirements are extraordinary this year, and because they are highly relevant to the current Budget
Summit Negotiations, a preliminary view of possible sequester requirements is published here, in
advance. The sequester outlook is at pages 17-38.
Clearly, the sequester alternative is unattractive. It is, therefore, all the more reason to seek to
reach prompt agreement on a responsible, multi-year deficit reduction program.

I. ECONOMIC ASSUMPTIONS
The economy has now completed 71/2 years of continuous growth, extending the longest peacetime
expansion on record. For the past 20 months the total unemployment rate has remained on a plateau
of around 51/4 percent, the lowest level since early 1974. There are few signs that inflation is
accelerating. Short-term interest rates are lower than they were a year ago, but long-term rates are
slightly higher.
Although economic performance this year has been positive, the January budget assumed a more
favorable outcome. Real growth has proved to be a little slower than forecast and inflation somewhat
higher; interest rates moved up in the beginning months of the year. The economic assumptions
underlying the Mid-Session Review incorporate this new information. The assumptions then move
back toward the Administration's long-term, growth-oriented target path. These new assumptions
have been developed jointly by the Council of Economic Advisers, the Treasury, and the Office of
Management and Budget. They are presented at Table 1.
The Mid-Session Review projects a 2.2 percent increase in real GNP over the four quarters of
1990, compared with 2.6 percent projected in the January budget. Real growth in the first quarter
was at a 1.9 percent annual rate.
The Mid-Session Review assumes growth in the second half of the year will be at a faster pace
than during the first half. In the following five years, average real growth is assumed to be slightly
above 3 percent annually, similar to the January budget assumption. This compares with a 40-year
average real growth rate of 3.3 percent. The total unemployment rate is projected to average 5.6
percent in 1991, declining in subsequent years to 5.2 percent by 1995.
Prices rose more rapidly in the first quarter than anticipated in the January budget as unusual
weather patterns drove up food and energy prices. The Consumer Price Index increased at an 8.2
percent annual rate and the GNP implicit price deflator at a 5.4 percent rate. Inflation in the second
quarter was much more subdued: energy prices fell, food prices eased, and other prices rose slowly.
As a result of higher inflation earlier this year, however, the Mid-Session Review projects a slightly
faster rise in prices during 1990 than the January budget. The Consumer Price Index is now expected
to increase 4.8 percent over the four quarters of 1990, compared with 4.1 percent in the January
budget; the deflator is now projected to rise 4.5 percent in 1990 instead of 4.2 percent. Inflation in
1991 and beyond is expected to decline gradually. This projected reduction assumes that the Federal
deficit is substantially reduced and that the Federal Reserve pursues a monetary policy that fosters
economic growth while promoting its long-term objective of price stability.
The January budget had assumed that interest rates would start to decline steadily this year.
Instead, rates rose through early spring. Even though they have declined in recent months, short-and
long-term rates in the second quarter averaged about three-quarters of a percentage point above the
levels projected in the Budget. The Mid-Session Review assumes interest rates will remain around
current levels during the second half of this year and then move progressively lower during the
following five years as inflation and the Federal deficit are reduced.
The effects of the changes in economic assumptions on receipts and outlays are discussed in
Sections II and III, respectively.

II. RECEIPTS
The current estimates of baseline receipts for both 1990 and 1991 are lower than the January
estimates. Actual collections to date, new data regarding the distribution of wages relative to the
social security taxable maximum, and adjustments to Treasury estimating models are the major
reasons for the lower estimates of receipts.

Technical reestimates, which primarily reflect adjustments to income and employment taxes, are
estimated to lower baseline receipts by $24.2 billion in 1990 and $27.0 billion in 1991. Technical
adjustments in estimates of individual income tax receipts account for $13.5 billion of the downward
revision to 1990 receipts. Most of this adjustment is attributable to lower than estimated final
settlements of 1989 liabilities. Reestimates of the effect of the Tax Reform Act of 1986 on corporate
income taxes and greater than anticipated use of Subchapter S filings by corporations account for an
additional $7.5 billion of the downward revision in 1990 receipts. The remaining technical adjustment
in 1990 receipts is in large part attributable to lower than previously estimated payroll taxes, reflecting
a larger proportion of wages above the social security taxable maximum than previously assumed.
The estimates for 1991-1995 have been revised to take these factors into account.
Economic assumptions are estimated to lower total receipts by $4.5 billion in 1990 and $7.2 billion
in 1991 compared with the January budget. This is due primarily to a lower than anticipated corporate
profits taxable base, reflecting weaker economic activity.
Because 1990 IRS staffing will fall short of anticipated levels, estimated tax receipts from direct
enforcement initiatives are reduced by small amounts in each year.

III. SPENDING: OUTLAYS, BUDGET AUTHORITY, AND CREDIT
PROGRAMS
Outlays
The current estimate for adjusted baseline outlays for 1990 is $1,262.5 billion, $67.7 billion more
than the January estimate of $1,194.8 billion. The adjusted baseline estimate for 1991 is $1,353.1
billion, $96.3 billion more than the January estimate of $1,256.8 billion. The changes from January
to July are due to revised economic assumptions, new estimates for the Resolution Trust Corporation,
other technical reestimates, and policy changes resulting in part from enactment of the Dire Emergency
Supplemental Appropriations Act of 1990. The estimates are shown in Table 3.
Economic Changes
The adjusted baseline estimate for 1991 outlays has increased by $17.0 billion since January due
to changes in economic conditions. The increase is primarily due to higher interest rates than those
assumed in January. These revisions increase net interest outlays for 1991 by $10.2 billion. Other
increases include $1.3 billion for unemployment insurance due to higher total unemployment rates
and $1.5 billion for higher social security cost-of-living allowances as a result of higher inflation than
was assumed in January.
Resolution Trust Corporation (RTC)
Estimated outlays for RTC for 1991 have increased by about $55 billion since January. This is a
highly uncertain estimate. It assumes the enactment of new spending authority-necessary to continue
to resolve failing thrifts and to honor commitments to cover federally-insured deposits.
Although the RTC, through the third quarter of 1990, has resolved 207 thrifts with $65 billion
in assets and estimated losses of approximately $25 billion, the S&L problem has worsened since the
enactment of FIRREA last August. Treasury Secretary Brady testified in May and June that several
factors have caused the significant increase in cost estimates: these include the decline in regional
real estate markets, higher interest rates, and low demand for thrifts as a franchise. Estimates of
the cost remain highly uncertain, but it is now clear that the $50 billion authorized by FIRREA will
be insufficient to deal with failed, or failing, thrifts.
The Administration has produced estimates of the budget impact of RTC spending over the budget
planning period under three different scenarios: a lower bound including 712 thrifts, with small losses
on assets and with $25 billion in assets resolved per quarter; and two additional estimates with 1,027
thrifts, $40 billion in assets resolved per quarter and using either a medium or high loss rate-the
upper bound. Estimated RTC net outlays in 1991, for both losses and working capital, range from
$32 billion to $63 billion. Both the policy and adjusted baseline estimates in this document assume
the larger group of failed thrifts with a medium loss rate, which results in outlays of $63 billion in
1991, compared to $7.3 billion assumed in January. There are, as Secretary Brady has stressed in
recent testimony, too many significant variables to have confidence in any single estimate of the size
of the problem. There is a great deal of uncertainty concerning the number of institutions that will
ultimately fail, the rate at which the RTC can resolve insolvent institutions, the size of losses to be
taken on assets acquired, the impact of changes in interest rates and economic conditions, and the
market for thrift institutions.
Discussion continues on the appropriate budgetary treatment of RTC transactions. The Congres-
sional Budget Office (CBO) has proposed that all RTC transactions, with the exception of administrative
costs and interest payments to the Federal Financing Bank (FFB), be exempted from calculation of
the G-R-H deficit (although not excluded from Federal budget totals). (The Chairmen of the Senate
Budget and Banking Committees have supported a similar proposal to exempt all RTC outlays from
the G-R-H calculation.) The effect of this budgetary treatment is displayed in Table 8 in Part 5.

Technical Changes
Technical changes result from factors such as revised crop forecasts affecting farm price support
costs, changes in estimated caseloads for entitlement programs, changes in the estimated rate at
which outlays result from commitments-and other non-economic, non-policy conditions different from
those previously assumed.
Estimated outlays for the adjusted baseline increased $22.3 billion for 1991 from January to July
due to technical factors.
The current estimate of Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) outlays is $4.1 billion lower than
the January estimate for 1991. Current feed grain prices, in particular, corn, are significantly
above levels projected in January due to a stronger than estimated domestic demand and a
6
higher than estimated share of the export market. While strength in the price will call forth
additional production resulting in an eventual decline in prices and higher subsidy payments,
subsidies are not now expected to reach previously estimated levels for the five year period.
Estimated outlays for the Department of Defense-Military increased $0.8 billion due to technical
factors. This is primarily due to faster spendout of obligations than assumed in January.
The current estimate of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) outlays for the bank
insurance fund in 1991 is $3.8 billion above the January estimate due to the continued uncertainty
regarding the health of the banking industry. Actual outlays may vary significantly from current
estimates.
The current estimate of FDIC's Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation (FSLIC)
resolution fund outlays for 1991 is $1.4 billion above the January estimate. (These outlays
involve pre-FIRREA case resolutions.) Factors leading to these increased costs include higher
interest payments on FSLIC notes, higher assistance agreement payments and decreased
collections from asset sales.
Estimated outlays for the FDIC savings association insurance fund have declined in later years
because some of the insolvent thrifts it was expected to resolve are now assumed to be resolved
sooner by the Resolution Trust Corporation.
The increase in outlay estimates for the Federal buildings fund results from the decision to
revise the scoring for new lease purchases.
Estimated outlays for food stamps increased in 1991 by $0.9 billion for technical reasons, largely
due to more participation than anticipated in January. Pursuant to the Dire Emergency Sup-
plemental Appropriations Act of 1990 (P.L. 101-302), the Administration is requesting the
additional $1.2 billion in budget authority for food stamps for 1990 included in that Act.
Estimated 1990 outlays for foreign military financing are $2.0 billion above the January estimate
primarily because fewer countries refinanced their loans than assumed in the January estimate.
The increase in 1990 is offset by decreases in later years.
Estimated outlays for Medicaid have increased $2.6 billion for 1991, due primarily to more
participation than previously estimated and higher average outlays per participant
Estimated outlays for Medicare have increased for 1991 by $1.3 billion due to technical reasons.
Medicare hospital insurance outlays are estimated to increase by about $2.5 billion primarily
because of higher inpatient utilization than previously expected, and more recent hospice service
data. Medicare supplementary medical insurance (SMI) outlays, net of premium receipts, are
estimated to decrease by a net $1.2 billion because of revised actuarial estimates of physician
and outpatient services, lower rates of growth in SMI enrollment, and one-time payments to
certain providers required by the court decision in Cosgrove v. Bowen.
Estimated outlays for social security increase $0.6 billion in 1991 due to higher average benefit
payments that more than offset declines in the estimated number of beneficiaries.
Estimated outlays for supplemental security income (SSI) for 1991 are $2.0 billion above the
budget estimate due to higher than expected benefits and participation and the effect of the
court decision in the Zebley case. The decision requires that disabled children under SSI who
do not meet listed disability criteria be evaluated on the basis of functional ability, as adults
are. Costs may change when the court decides the period of retroactivity. No funds for admin-
istration are included in these estimates.
Estimated outlays for unemployment compensation for 1991 are $0.7 billion more than the
January estimate because a larger portion of the unemployed is actually claiming benefits and
because of higher administrative costs to process the additional claims.
Estimated outlays for veterans compensation are $0.2 billion more than the January estimate
because of a higher than anticipated number of beneficiaries and higher average benefits.
Net interest estimates increased an estimated $9.2 billion in 1991 for technical reasons, largely
for debt service costs.
7
Policy Changes
The major legislation enacted since January is the Dire Emergency Supplemental Appropriations
Act of 1990, which increased 1990 and 1991 net outlays for discretionary programs by an estimated
$0.3 billion and $0.6 billion respectively. In accordance with rules specified in the G-R-H. Act, the
baseline is calculated on a basis. that assumes discretionary changes enacted in the Supplemental
Appropriations Act will continue in real terms through 1995.
The other policy changes are primarily. the result of 1990 transfers within the Department of
Defense to fund CHAMPUS medical programs.
Budget Authority
The current estimate for budget authority for 1991 for the adjusted baseline is $1,469.6 billion,
an increase of $59.4 billion from the January estimate of $1,410.2 billion. These estimates are shown
on Table 4.

Budget authority changes are primarily for the same programs and for the same reasons as are
described in the outlay section above. The major exceptions are trust funds, for which changes in
budget authority generally reflect changes in income to the funds. For example, revisions in projected
wages and salaries have increased estimates of social security tax receipts, thereby raising budget
authority for the social security trust funds. These increases, however, are more than offset by
downward technical reestimates of social security trust fund income.
Credit Programs
The Federal credit budget supplements the unified budget as a separate system for measuring
the volume of new direct loans and loan guarantees extended to borrowers. Unlike the unified budget,
the credit budget measures new credit at the point where the Government contracts to provide a
direct loan or loan guarantee. Guaranteed loan commitments are recorded as the full principal of the
loan even if the Government's contingent liability is less than the principal amount. The credit budget
focuses on the volume of Federal loans and guarantees, not their impact on budget outlays or their
subsidy to assisted borrowers.
Outlays for credit programs in the unified budget include direct loan disbursements net of
repayments and sales, and loan guarantee fees net of defaults. The Administration has proposed to
revise the treatment of credit programs within the unified budget. Its credit reform proposal would
show appropriated subsidies for all new direct loans and loan guarantees in order to measure and
control the subsidy component of credit activity on an expenditure basis equivalent to other Federal
spending. However, the subsidy amounts are not included in the agency or function totals in the
present Mid-Session Review.
As Table 5 shows, the credit budget baseline totals are now estimated to be $134.2 billion in 1990
and $150.8 billion in 1991. The current estimate is $2.2 billion below the January baseline estimate
for 1990, and $1.4 billion above the January baseline estimate for 1991. These changes are due entirely
to technical reestimates that reflect revised estimates of the demand for various loan programs.
Direct Loan Obligations
New direct loan obligations in 1990 are now estimated to be $16.6 billion, $1.7 billion below the
January baseline estimate. For 1991, the current estimate is $16.6 billion, $1.1 billion below than
the January baseline estimate.
Estimated commodity price support and related loans are $0.7 and $1.5 billion below January
for 1990 and 1991, respectively. These technical reestimates reflect reduced demand.
The current estimates for rural electrification and telephone loans are $0.7 billion below January
for 1990 because of a lower estimate of demand for loans to power supply borrowers.
The current estimates for VA housing vendee loans are $0.2 billion above the January estimate
for both 1990 and 1991. These reestimates reflect an increase in the number of properties sold on
terms (vendee financing) as opposed to selling them for cash, which reflects the current program
trend.
Guaranteed Loan Commitments
New guaranteed loan commitments are now estimated to be $117.7 billion for 1990 and $134.2
billion for 1991. These levels reflect a decline of $0.4 billion from the January estimate for 1990 and
an increase of $2.5 billion for 1991.
The current estimate for the agricultural credit insurance program is $1.8 billion below the
January estimate for 1990 because program participation has been less than expected.
The level of VA-guaranteed loans is estimated to be $1.4 billion above the January estimate for
1990 and $2.0 billion above for 1991. These reestimates reflect an increase in actual loan originations
in 1990; increases in recourse loan sales, which are scored as new guaranteed loans; and the out-year
impact of recent housing trends.

270-858 o 90 - 2 ; QL 3
Secondary Guaranteed Loans
New GNMA guarantees of mortgage-backed securities are now estimated to be $2.0 billion above
the January estimate for 1991. This increase is the result of the higher level of VA-guaranteed loan
activity.

IV. GRAMM-RUDMAN-HOLLINGS BASELINE
The Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended, requires that the
Mid-Session Review present an updated estimate of the Gramm-Rudman-Hollings (G-R-H) baseline
deficit as defined in the Act. This section provides a brief discussion of the current G-R-H baseline
estimates, how the current baseline differs from the January estimates, and sequester estimates for
the current G-R-H baseline.
The Director of OMB is required by the Act to use the Mid-Session economic assumptions (presented
in Part I above) and the Mid-Session technical assumptions (presented in Parts II and III above) in
developing estimates for the initial sequester report, to be submitted on August 25, 1990, and for the
final report, to be submitted on October 15, 1990.
The current baseline estimates must be based on current law, and incorporate all laws enacted
and regulations promulgated as final by July 10, 1990. The estimates follow the specifications set
forth in the Act for developing the baseline and, therefore, include no adjustments for anomalies that
result from the requirements of the Act. For instance, the G-R-H estimates assume that in 1991 the
authorization for the food stamp program will expire and that the 1990 decennial census will be
repeated in 1991. (The latter certainly will not occur, and the former is highly unlikely. Nonetheless,
the G-R-H Act requires that the baseline be calculated as if these unlikely events were reality.)
In addition, the Act requires that G-R-H estimates of the Resolution Trust Corporation (RTC)
net outlays be constrained by the current law limit on the availability of RTC funding as provided
by the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act (FIRREA) of 1989 (Public Law
101-73). It now appears that the RTC may reach the $50 billion limit in early 1991. For G-R-H
baseline purposes, therefore, the RTC must be treated as if it were to run out of funds. Using the
scenarios described earlier, but assuming no additional funding, RTC outlays could range from $-14
billion to $14 billion. The Mid-Session G-R-H estimates-based on the larger group of failed thrifts
but with a medium loss rate on asset sales-use a figure in the middle of this range, producing RTC
outlays for 1991 of about $0.1 billion. (In reality, as noted above, RTC net outlays for 1991 are likely
to exceed $50 billion-but, since this requires a change of law, the G-R-H baseline does not reflect
this fact.)
Using these assumptions, total G-R-H baseline outlays are estimated to be $1,270.1 billion and
receipts are estimated to be $1,121.7 billion. The resulting G-R-H baseline deficit of $148.4 billion is
$84.4 billion above the $64 billion target specified by the Act for 1991 and $74.4 billion above the
level that would require automatic reductions, referred to as a sequester. (The law provides a $10
billion margin or "cushion" beyond the deficit target before a sequester is triggered.) The uniform
percentage reductions required under a $84.4 billion sequester would be 31.9 percent for nondefense
programs subject to an across-the-board sequester and 21.2 percent for defense programs, assuming
no Presidential exemption of military personnel accounts. The defense sequester would be 34.9 percent
if the President decides to exempt the military personnel accounts.
Part VI provides descriptions of the potential effects on specific programs of a $100 billion
sequester, roughly the reduction required after the baseline has been adjusted for the food stamp
anomaly. The actual reductions by program for a $100 billion sequester are provided in Appendices
C and D.
Changes Since January
As detailed in Table 6, the G-R-H baseline deficit estimate increased by $63.8 billion since January.
The changes are for the same economic and technical reasons as discussed in Parts I, II, and III,
with the exception of adjustments associated with the food stamp program (which, by law, must be
assumed to expire in the G-R-H baseline), the Census Bureau, and RTC.

Revised economic assumptions increase the G-R-H baseline deficit by a net of $23.2 billion
compared to the January estimates, and technical reestimates have increased the deficit by an
additional $38.2 billion. The baseline estimates in the initial and final G-R-H sequester reports, to
be published in August and October, respectively, are required by the Act to be based on the same
economic and technical assumptions used in the Mid-Session Review. Because OMB is precluded by
the Act from changing these baseline assumptions after the issuance of the Mid-Session Review, new
economic and technical information that may be available prior to the August and October reports
will not be reflected in those reports.
The law requires a report on deficit reduction achieved since January. The G-R-H baseline deficit
based on laws in effect on January 1, 1990, is $146.1 billion, $2.3 billion lower than the current
estimate. Thus, no net deficit reduction has been achieved since January 1st as a result of legislation
and regulations. The recently enacted Dire Emergency Supplemental Appropriations Act of 1990 (P.L.
101-302) increased the 1991 baseline deficit by $0.7 billion. Other policy actions, primarily defense
transfers, increased the deficit another $1.4 billion.
12
V. THE DEFICIT OUTLOOK
In January the President submitted to Congress a budget that proposed deficit reduction measures
that, in aggregate, would have reduced the baseline deficit estimated for 1991 by $38 billion (as
estimated in January-$41 billion as estimated with Mid-Session assumptions). For reasons discussed
above, developments since January now indicate substantially higher baseline deficit levels for 1991
and subsequent years.
The adjusted baseline deficit has increased from $100.5 billion estimated in January to $168.8
billion in this Review-without including the likely S&L costs (i.e., outlays of the Resolution Trust
Corporation). With full funding of the likely 1991 S&L case resolution costs, the adjusted consolidated
baseline deficit estimate rises to $231.4 billion. This makes it imperative that the Congress enact
substantially larger deficit reductions than were proposed in January or reflected in subsequent
Congressional action and budget resolutions.

Presidential Policy
By early May, the deficit outlook for 1991 appeared to be increasingly troublesome. This was the
case for several reasons: economic performance was less favorable than forecast; receipt estimates
were less than forecast; S&L expenditures were rising significantly; pending Congressional budget
resolutions were inadequate; sequester estimates were reaching extremely high levels; and the prospect
of unproductive legislative stalemate loomed large-if matters were left to business as usual.
Accordingly, the President sought to advance Congressional movement toward more ambitious
and more timely deficit reduction-by calling for special deficit reduction negotiations. In calling for
14
such negotiations, the President stated: "We are fortunate that the economy continues to grow. But
it is important to act while the economy is still growing, for growth is not as strong or secure as it
should be." After a series of meetings with Congressional leaders, the President and the Bipartisan
Congressional Leadership agreed, on May 9, to commence deficit reduction negotiations through a
"summit" negotiating group. The leaders agreed to meet without preconditions in order to:
reduce the deficit substantially on a multi-year basis;
allow the economy to continue to grow; and
avoid the adverse economic and programmatic effects of a stalemate that might otherwise
ensue.
On June 20, in the context of the Summit negotiations, the Administration proposed new deficit
reduction measures-in addition to those proposed in the January budget. The combination of the
Administration's January and June deficit reduction proposals, if enacted, would reduce the deficit
by the following amounts:

For purposes of this Mid-Session Review, these January and June deficit reduction measures
(displayed at Table 10) represent the latest official formulation of "Presidential Policy"-subject to
further negotiation in the context of the Bipartisan Summit.

The Administration's proposals of June 20th, although accepted in part, were not accepted in full
by the Summit negotiators. On June 26, the President and the bipartisan leadership agreed that both
the size of the deficit problem and the need for a package that. can be enacted require all of the
following: entitlement and mandatory program reform; tax revenue increases; growth incentives;
discretionary spending reduction; orderly reductions in defense expenditures; and budget process
reform-to assure that any bipartisan agreement is enforceable and that the deficit problem is brought
under responsible control.
An informal consensus (or near-consensus) has developed within the Summit that 1991 deficit
reduction measures should be approximately the same size as those proposed by the Administration
($50-55 billion). A lesser amount of savings would not likely be viewed as a credible attack on the
deficit problem; but a larger amount of savings could be counter-productive with respect to economic
growth. There is, in addition, general agreement that deficit reduction measures should grow in the
out-years, and that a specific and enforceable multi-year deficit reduction program should be negotiated
and enacted as soon as possible-preferably before the August recess. The Administration is fully
committed to the achievement of these objectives.
It is implicit in the numbers presented here that if a satisfactory multi-year Budget Summit
agreement is achieved and enacted, there will have to be a corresponding adjustment of the G-R-H
deficit targets. However, the Administration does not favor any such target adjustment independently
of the enactment of a responsible, substantial, multi-year deficit reduction program. Indeed, if a
responsible deficit reduction program is not negotiated and passed by Congress, a major sequester
will be necessary. Such a sequester should not and is not to be construed as a first choice from a
policy perspective. But it remains necessary as a fail-safe mechanism to force the successful negotiation
and achievement of a responsible deficit reduction program.
16
VI. POTENTIAL EFFECTS OF $100 BILLION SEQUESTER
If the Budget Summit negotiations do not produce a satisfactory deficit reduction program, a
large sequester will ensue. With that possibility in view, this section discusses the sequester calculations
and the potential effects of a 1991 sequester of $100 billion.
For purposes of determining the sequester amount, it seems reasonable to assume the continuation
of the food stamp program, and a return to normal operating levels for the Census Bureau. Spending
from the Resolution Trust Corporation (RTC), however, including administrative expenses and interest
payments to the Federal Financing Bank, is excluded from the baseline totals at this point-in part
because current law limits total RTC spending and in part because many believe that RTC expenditures
should be excluded from G-R-H sequester calculations. Under these assumptions, the adjusted baseline
deficit would be $168.8 billion in 1991, $104.8 billion above the $64 billion deficit target required by
the G-R-H law. Thus if no additional policy actions were taken to reduce this adjusted baseline deficit
before the initial sequester report is issued on August 25th, the President must issue an order to
withhold roughly $100 billion effective October 1st. If no policy actions were taken before the final
sequester report is issued on October 15th, a sequester of roughly $100 billion would be required. (If
RTC were authorized to spend more, and if such expenditures were included in the sequester calculation,
the likely sequester would exceed $150 billion.)
Sequestration Calculations
Reductions associated with a $100 billion sequester would be determined using the following
steps, as shown in Table 11.

First, one-half of the required deficit reduction, $50 billion, would be assigned to defense programs
(budget accounts in the national defense function, 050, excluding the Federal Emergency Management
Agency) and the other half to nondefense programs.
Second, savings from eliminating automatic spending increases in three specific programs (the
National Wool Act, the special milk program, and vocational rehabilitation) would be applied to the
required reduction in outlays for nondefense programs. Savings from eliminating these adjustments
would be $58 million.
Third, the amount of outlay savings to be obtained by applying four special rules would be
calculated. These special rules are for guaranteed student loans, foster care and adoption assistance,
medicare and certain other health programs. The estimated savings from these special rules, $1.8
billion for 1991, would be applied toward the required spending reductions in nondefense programs.
The reductions in defense programs and remaining reductions in nondefense programs would be
taken on a uniform percentage basis, computed separately for each category. Under the adjusted
baseline estimates, the uniform percentage reductions would be 38.4 percent for nondefense programs.
For defense programs, the uniform percentage reduction would be 25.1 percent if military personnel
accounts were sequestered and 41.3 percent if these accounts were exempted by the President from
sequestration.
In the event that a sequester is required, not all programs will be subject to reductions. For
defense and nondefense programs combined, about 67 percent of total outlays are associated with
budgetary resources exempt from sequestration. The burden of sequester falls on programs that
comprise the remaining 33 percent of budget outlays. Of these outlays, defense programs account for
47 percent, special rule nondefense programs for 25 percent, and other nondefense programs account
for 28 percent.
Programmatic Impact of a $100 Billion Sequester
In addition to the sequester effects described for individual programs that follow, most, if not all,
Federal agencies would be forced to reduce staff costs through reductions-in-force, furloughs, and
hiring freezes.
Reductions-in-force are required to be implemented in an orderly way, generally using the criteria,
within Federal job classifications, of abolishing positions, thereby terminating the employment of the
most junior and non-veteran employees first. Severe reductions-in-force (of the size necessary under
this sequester) also can affect senior employees whose jobs are abolished. These employees may then
"bump" more junior employees in other job classifications for which the senior employee is qualified.
Furloughs involve telling employees not to come to work for a certain length of time and then
not paying them for that time period (e.g., involuntary leave without pay). By law, military personnel
cannot be furloughed.
Hiring freezes result in the random loss of employees and frequently the loss of the most critical
specialties and the creation of imbalances within an organization.
Legal requirements, the regulations of the Office of Personnel Management, and labor-management
agreements must be followed in administering both reductions-in-force and furloughs. In order to
yield any savings, the reduction-in-force process should begin at the time of the initial sequester
report on August 25th or not later than the issuance of the final sequester report on October 15th.
Termination expenses (payments for unused annual leave, return of retirement contributions, unem-
ployment compensation payments, etc.) offset the savings made possible by discontinuing employment.
Separating a person at the beginning of the year on average saves only $11,500 or 35-40 percent of
compensation and benefits during the first year after a reduction-in-force. In subsequent years, the
former employees' full compensation and benefits would normally be saved. On this basis, the separation
of 100,000 employees through a reduction-in-force would save only $1.1 billion in 1991. Many thousands
18
of dependents, businesses, and creditors who depend upon the income and purchasing power of Federal
employees would be hurt by these actions.
Agencies also would reduce travel, training, printing, contractual services, and supply and equip-
ment purchases. Those employees who remained would be hampered in their efforts to enforce the
law, carry out agency missions mandated by law, and supply previous levels of services not only
because of the reduced number of personnel, but also because of organizational disruptions created
by adverse personnel actions and by the lack of non-personnel resources.
While the description of the effect of the sequester by program that follows is extensive, it is not
comprehensive and is intended for illustrative purposes only.
Department of Agriculture
Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC)
A sequester applies to CCC cash deficiency payments and commodity loan programs by crop year.
Based on projected 1991 crop year cash deficiency payments of $7.1 billion, a sequester would require
a reduction of $2.7 billion in deficiency payment outlays in fiscal years 1991 and 1992. The value of
1991 crop loans estimated in fiscal years 1991 and 1992 is $6.0 billion. Checks written during harvest
time to farmers who place crops under loan would be reduced by about $2.3 billion in 1991 and 1992.
Reductions in CCC outlays, net of loan repayments would be $3.9 billion during fiscal years 1991 and
1992.
To illustrate the wide-spread impact of a sequester, note that approximately 300,000 commodity
loans and 9,000,000 deficiency payments are currently issued through the CCC. For 1989 crop
programs, the following number of farms received cash deficiency payments for crops:
Cotton
100,000
Feed grains
1,100,000
Wheat
435,000
Rice
18,500
In addition, an estimated 175,000 dairy producers would face large assessments on their milk
marketings (the assessment of 10.4 cents per hundredweight of milk markets would reduce cash
receipts of dairy farmers by approximately $150 million), and 40,000 peanut farms and 424,000 tobacco
farms would be affected through loan proceeds reductions.
The average deficiency payment for the 1989 feed grain crop was $4,363, and the average for all
commodity loans was $13,771. A sequester would reduce the average deficiency payment by $1,658
and the average commodity loan by $5,233.
Conservation
The 1985 Food Security Act (FSA) established the Conservation Reserve Program. People who
agree to retire highly erodible land for 10 years receive an annual rental payment and financial
assistance in establishing a permanent cover on the land. Under a sequester, annual rental payments
due under the nearly 334,000 conservation reserve program contracts with farmers could not be paid
in full.
The FSA also established several new conservation initiatives that require Soil Conservation
Service (SCS) technical assistance. Under the law, SCS is responsible for defining highly erodible
lands (HEL) and wetlands and for helping farmers develop and install conservation plans that
producers will need if they are to continue receiving program benefits from the Department of
Agriculture. While conservation planning and HEL determinations have been completed, only about
30 percent of the measures have been installed. The law requires that producers install the approved
conservation systems by December 31, 1994. The "swampbuster" provisions of the FSA require that
SCS also conduct wetland determinations and inventories to help farmers recognize wetlands and
prevent unintentional conversions. The target date for completing the wetland determinations is
19
December 31, 1991 with wetland inventories being scheduled for completion by the end of 1992. In
addition to these efforts, SCS must provide technical assistance for the conservation reserve program,
for any necessary revisions to FSA plans, and for compliance reviews to ensure that conservation
plans are properly installed.
A sequester would require that SCS emphasize meeting the provisions and deadlines mandated
by FSA at the expense of other conservation operations such as the water quality initiative, soil
mapping, and plant center renovation, which are authorized but not subject to statutory deadlines.
Even with best efforts to meet the highest priority needs, it is unlikely that many of the FSA
conservation targets could be met. Continued assistance to the nearly 3,000 conservation districts
would be jeopardized and service would be reduced at most SCS field offices. Watershed planning
and construction would be delayed or terminated for many projects that address high priority national
problem areas such as local flood control, emergency assistance, land treatment, and water quality.
Cost sharing projects would be stopped or slowed down.
Cooperative State Research and Extension
Under a sequester (that must be applied uniformly), higher priority projects could not be preserved
by applying larger reductions to (or canceling) lower priority projects. Across-the-board cuts would
reduce USDA's National Research Initiative (designed to use competitive research grants to enhance
production efficiency, food safety, and environmental quality). One important component of this ini-
tiative is an effort to map the genomes of plants to permit scientists to explore more fully the genetics
of plants. Other research that would be cut could contribute to the design of more economical production
practices and to dealing with pests and disease in ways that protect the environment. A large number
of special interest research grants and construction projects would also be affected.
Farmers Home Administration (FmHA)
A sequester would impair efforts to service FmHA's portfolio of almost $59 billion in outstanding
debt. This would reduce borrowers' chances of success in meeting their loan obligations and increase
losses to the Government. In particular, efforts to restructure about $5 billion in delinquent farm
loans would be delayed, causing borrowers undue hardship and reducing the recovery value of these
loans.
Federal Crop Insurance Corporation
A sequester would reduce the funds available for commission payments on insurance policy sales
made by private insurers, causing a suspension in sales when funds run out. The reduction in the
amount of insurance sold would also reduce the premiums paid to the Government.
Federal Research (Including Buildings and Facilities)
Under a sequester (that must be applied uniformly), higher priority projects could not be preserved
by applying larger reductions to (or canceling) lower priority projects. Such reductions would reduce
USDA's Food Safety Initiative and the collection of food safety information. This information is
expressly intended for further use in setting Federal food safety policies and regulations. Other
research, such as water quality research projects included in the Water Quality Initiative and federally
sponsored human nutrition studies, also would be constrained.
The layoff of Federal scientists and technicians would impede the delivery of new technologies
to improve agricultural competitiveness and address environmental issues. Reductions in research
programs at 59 agricultural experiment stations, as well as at other colleges and universities, would
impair the ability of States to continue a full range of research to address local and regional concerns.
Most adversely affected would be the historically black 1890 colleges and Tuskegee University that
receive nearly 100 percent of their research funding from the Federal Government.
20
Foreign Agricultural Service
A sequester would compromise the execution of trade policy responsibilities, including those
related to the Uruguay round during the most crucial stage of this multilateral trade negotiation.
Reductions in our overseas presence, including attaches and counselors, would impair the collection
and reporting of agricultural intelligence and the administration of export and market development
programs. Some overseas cooperator offices would have to be closed and some smaller cooperator
organizations would have to end participation in the program. Since agriculture is the one major
"positive" in U.S. trade, these reductions would have a detrimental effect on the balance of trade.
Forest Service
A sequester would severely affect the ability of the Forest Service to maintain projected targets
for recreation, wildlife and fish habitat management, and timber sales. Timber sales could decline to
below eight million board feet. Timber preparation work would be greatly reduced, reducing 1991 and
out year sales. Receipts to the Treasury and to States and counties would decline significantly.
Economic effects, particularly in the West, would be substantial.
Certain campgrounds and other recreational facilities would be closed. Services at remaining
sites would be significantly curtailed. Efforts to protect and improve habitat to achieve recovery goals
for endangered and threatened species would be substantially reduced.
No seasonal hiring would occur, further inhibiting quick response to fire fighting emergencies
and significantly curtailing services (e.g., garbage pickup and rest room cleaning) at the recreational
facilities that remain open. Road maintenance and most other field work would all but cease, resulting
in the deterioration of roads and facilities and ultimately road closures for safety concerns.
Meat and Poultry Inspection
The Federal Meat Inspection Act (P.L. 90-201) and the Poultry Products Inspection Act (P.L.
90-449) require carcass-by-carcass inspection by Federal inspectors in establishments slaughtering
food animals. All plants engaged in further processing of meat and poultry must also be inspected by
Federal inspectors. Since meat packing plants cannot operate without these Federal inspectors, the
meat and poultry slaughter and processing industry would be forced to limit or curtail production by
the same extent that inspectors are not available. The meat and poultry industry is one of the largest
in the country. It employs over 400,000 people at 7,800 meat and poultry plants and has an annual
retail value of more than $100 billion. Many thousands more people are employed in the breeding,
raising, transportation, storage, and distribution of food animals. The economic loss from any shut
down due to a sequester would result in the loss of billions of dollars to the American economy. In
addition to the economic disruption, the limited inspection coverage would erode the high level of
safety of the nation's meat and poultry products.
A sequester would result in the absence of inspection services (and the shutting down of meat
and poultry slaughter and processing plants) for about 140 days.
Quarantine and Inspection Activities
A sequester would defeat recent progress by the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service to
eliminate pseudorabies, brucellosis, and the Russian wheat aphid. Emergency eradication of the
Mediterranean fruit fly and grasshopper would be defeated. All 39 quarantine and inspection activities
would be reduced. This would result in serious delays in import shipments of plants and animals as
well as baggage inspection for international travel. Extensive delays or disruption of service could
cause significant losses of plants and animals in quarantine or awaiting inspection. It would also
drastically reduce the number of inspections and thus increase the risk of introducing serious animal
and plant diseases and pests into the United States. Implementation of the pending regulations on
animal welfare might not be possible.
The Federal Grain Inspection Service would totally eliminate contractual research including
aflatoxin research outlined in the Administration's farm bill proposal. The Agricultural Cooperative
21
Service would not be able to conduct research studies in support of farmer cooperatives and the Office
of Transportation would not be able to assist in solving transportation problems related to agriculture.
Department of Commerce
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)
A sequester would severely impair several high priority research programs, in particular, NOAA's
contribution to the interagency U.S. Global Change Research program and the Coastal Ocean Science
program. Several major system procurement actions supporting the modernization of the Weather
Service would be canceled or deferred including such safety programs as the NEXRAD doppler radars
(that detect severe weather patterns) and the next generation of geostationary weather satellites.
It would severely reduce fisheries stock assessments and research, thereby requiring an extremely
conservative fisheries management regime including closure of certain grounds to commercial fishing.
Operations of the NOAA research fleet and air wing would be reduced to the minimum required to
support hurricane reconnaissance responsibilities. These actions would be required to ensure that
NOAA would be able to provide weather warnings and, on a less frequent basis than normal, weather
forecasts.
Department of Defense-Military
Military personnel exempted.-The President can exempt up to 100 percent of the military personnel
accounts from sequester. If he chose to do this, force readiness would be severely degraded. Because
a sizeable portion of operation and maintenance expenses are relatively fixed in the short term (e.g.,
hospitals and other required medical costs and bases that cannot be closed according to the G-R-H
law), readiness related activities (training, flying, steaming, and maintenance) could be cut by more
than 50 percent. Substantial cuts in operating rates would result. For example, the flying time for
Air Force pilots would be reduced to less than 10 hours per month (compared to the current 19.5
hours per month that is considered the minimum necessary for adequate readiness). Navy steaming
time for the deployed fleets could be reduced to less than 25 days per quarter from the normal rate
of over 50 days per quarter and many ships would rarely leave their home ports. The operating rate
reductions would require substantial adjustments in naval deployments and operations, reducing the
President's flexibility to deploy forces where needed, including drug interdiction missions. It would
also require reductions-in-force (RIFs) or furloughs of up to 80 percent of the requested level of 1.1
million civilian employees. Contractor personnel also would be reduced significantly. Roughly $8 billion
of equipment maintenance and $3 billion of real property maintenance would have to be deferred.
Modernization programs would be delayed and quantities planned for purchase would be cut.
For example, about 115 fighter aircraft could be cut from the 276 requested, six major combatant
ships could be cut from the 15 requested, and about 250 Army fighting vehicles could be cut from the
600 requested. Similar cuts would be made in all other procurement programs. Unit production costs
would increase. Research and development programs would be disrupted, resulting in delays in new
weapon programs, including high priority strategic systems.
Military personnel not exempted.-Not exempting military personnel could result in a reduction
of up to 1.0 million military, about one-half of the force. A sudden force cut of this magnitude would
severely weaken our ability to react to any major crisis. Morale and force readiness would be severely
degraded. Force structure cuts would include up to eight Army divisions (16 requested in 1991 versus
18 in 1990), the equivalent of one Marine Corps division and air wing (3 divisions and wings requested),
twelve Air Force tactical air wings (24 requested), and seven aircraft carrier battle groups (14
requested).
Force readiness would be severely degraded. Because a sizeable portion of operation and main-
tenance expenses are relatively fixed in the short term (e.g., hospitals and other required medical
costs and bases that cannot be closed according to the G-R-H law), readiness related activities (training,
flying, steaming, and maintenance) could be cut by over 30 percent. Substantial cuts in operating
rates would result. For example, the flying time for Air Force pilots would be reduced to less than
14 hours per month (compared to the current 19.5 hours per month that is considered the minimum
22
necessary for adequate readiness). Navy steaming time for the deployed fleets could be reduced to
less than 35 days per quarter from the normal rate of over 50 days per quarter and many ships would
rarely leave their home ports. The force reductions in conjunction with the operating rate reductions
would require substantial adjustments in naval deployments and operations, reducing the President's
flexibility to deploy forces where needed, including drug interdiction missions. It would also require
RIFs and furloughs of up to one-half of civilian employees (requested level is 1.1 million). Contractor
personnel also would be reduced significantly. Roughly $6 billion of equipment maintenance and $3
billion of real property maintenance would have to be deferred.
Modernization programs would be delayed and quantities planned for purchase would be cut.
For example, about 70 fighter aircraft could be cut from the 276 requested, four major combatant
ships could be cut from the 15 requested, and about 150 Army fighting vehicles could be cut from the
600 requested. Similar cuts would be made in all other procurement programs. Unit production costs
would increase. Research and development programs would be disrupted, resulting in delays in new
weapon programs, including high priority strategic systems.
Department of Defense-Civil
Army Corps of Engineers
The effect of a sequester on the civil works program would be twofold: substantial reductions in
personnel in labor-intensive activities, and contract delays and cutbacks in the construction and
operation and maintenance of water resources development projects.
A sequester would require reductions-in-force (RIF) affecting some 3,300 positions. A RIF of some
980 work-years is likely for the Regulatory program and General expenses accounts. Such cuts would
require delays in some, if not all, non-cost-shared preconstruction engineering and design studies;
and handicap new partnership arrangements with non-Federal cost-sharing project sponsors.
A RIF of 450 staff years would be required in the Corps labor intensive Regulatory program
under which the Corps administers Section 404 permits for dredge-and-fill activities in wetlands and
other waters, and for section 10 permits construction and other activities in navigable waterways.
These RIF's would adversely affect support for the environmental initiative to improve permit en-
forcement and compliance.
Construction contracts on non-cost-shared projects, including seven Inland Waterways lock and
dam projects, would be delayed and in some cases terminated. Work would be postponed for previously
funded, cost-shared new starts for which a local cooperative agreement had not been executed. Some
continuing contracts for cost-shared construction projects would be terminated.
The Operation and maintenance program would experience reductions in service delivery and
increased backlogs. Specifically, the use of seasonal labor would be minimized, the recreation season
shortened, recreational and other dredging deferred, and the number of shifts employed for the
operation of the locks on the Inland Waterways System constrained. Moreover, there would be
insufficient funds available to retain the number of employees needed to safeguard public safety and
health and to assure the integrity of project operations and work placement. Recreational facilities
would be closed and maintenance for flood control and navigation projects would be cut. Revetment
(repair of embankments) of the navigation channels of the Mississippi River and its tributaries would
be reduced by over 60 percent. Reductions would be imposed on the supervision and inspection of
work placement and the engineering and design of follow-on construction contracts. Additionally, new
programmed maintenance would be deferred, including channel and harbor dredging, lock and dam
repairs, and hydropower maintenance.
Department of Education
Pell Grants
In the major discretionary student aid program, Pell grants, the 1991 request would provide an
average award of $1,443 to 3.4 million students. Under the Pell law, the reduction in the appropriation
23
is translated into award reductions in accord with a specified "linear reduction" schedule that protects
awards to the poorest students. However, a sequester above 24 percent would reach the awards to
the poorest Pell grant recipients (those with expected family contributions of $200 or less).
If these students are not protected, then a sequester would eliminate grants to 1.2 million students,
at an average grant of $1,000, and reduce all remaining grants (2.2 million recipients) by $320 each,
or 22 percent of the average grant under the 1991 request.
Department of Energy (DOE)
Atomic Energy Defense Activities
A sequester would require a delay in cleanup activities, deferral of operational safety improvements,
a decimation of the ability of DOE to support future nuclear weapons production, and a serious
detriment to our nuclear deterrent. As an illustration only, the cut would require:
A 12-month delay in cleanup activities at contaminated sites.
DOE would not be able to meet the terms of agreements with States for obtaining compliance
with environmental requirements.
Deferring the operating safety and environmental measures that are now being instituted for
assured safe operation of the tritium production reactors.
Deferring work on safety improvements at weapons production facilities and suspending pro-
duction of new nuclear weapons.
Placing all plutonium processing facilities on standby at the very time we are returning weapons
to be reprocessed due to successful START negotiations.
Deferring indefinitely all design and construction activities for new facilities, which include
improvements for environment, safety, and health deficiencies found by the DOE Tiger Teams.
Substantially reducing nuclear weapons testing, and cutting research and development by about
25 percent, which will severely imperil initiatives to enhance nuclear weapons safety.
To effect the savings, contractor employees at the shut-down and deferred facilities would have
to be laid off. Significant numbers of personnel would have to remain, however, to ensure safety and
security of facilities. The maintenance of facilities in safe and secure conditions (even with no production)
could be somewhat compromised. Rehiring of employees after such a major disruption would take
years.
This would, in essence, force the Defense Weapons complex to proceed expeditiously to shut down
all operations, and place them in as safe a standby position as possible.
Energy Conservation Grants
A sequester would reduce the number of low-income homes weatherized through the Weatherization
Assistance program from approximately 125,000 to approximately 85,000 homes. This decrease would
place increased burdens on State and local governments in the colder winter months and would create
a hardship for many poorer American families. The number of grants to schools and hospitals for
weatherization activities would be reduced by 250. Grants to States for energy conservation planning
and extension activities would also be reduced. Because a sequester must be applied uniformly, higher
priority research and development projects could not be preserved by applying larger reductions to
(or canceling) lower priority projects.
General Science Program
A sequester would force the cancellation or delay of facility upgrades at several sites by at least
a year. Start up of the Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility in Virginia as well as construction
of the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider facility at Brookhaven National Laboratory would also be
delayed. Operating levels of high energy facilities (Fermilab, Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, and
24
the Los Alamos Meson Physics Facility) would be reduced by 50 percent or more. The impact of layoffs
of highly skilled staff would take years to reverse.
It would severely reduce research productivity at all the major national laboratories (e.g., Fermilab,
Brookhaven, and the Stanford Linear Accelerator Laboratory) and at one or more of the smaller
accelerator and research facilities. University research programs would experience large cuts in
funding.
Superconducting Super Collider (SSC)
A sequester would severely affect the basic ongoing research programs as well as the construction
of the Superconducting Super Collider.
Virtually all site work, research and development on detector designs, and purchase of capital
equipment for detector systems would cease. Design activities would have to be scaled back significantly
from 1990, causing personnel layoffs.
Implementation of the magnet industrialization plan would be impossible. The magnet contract
award would be delayed at least one year. This action would increase the total cost of the magnets
and significantly delay the project.
Cuts of this size would send a strong negative signal to potential international collaborators about
the commitment of the United States to the project and would jeopardize their participation. The
sequester would almost certainly result in no foreign contributions to SSC construction. In this event,
the United States would have to assume the full costs after the Texas contribution.
Department of Health and Human Services
Alcohol, Drug Abuse, and Mental Health Administration (ADAMHA) Drug Abuse Programs
Activities that address the demand side of the war on drugs-research, prevention, and treat-
ment-would be reduced by over one-third. All new research, including medications development,
would be eliminated. Prevention programs for high risk youth and pregnant women would be unable
to support new grants, and the number of continuing grants could be reduced by approximately 20
percent.
The Alcohol, Drug Abuse, and Mental Health Block Grant would fall sharply, reducing the number
of treatment slots far below Administration goals.
Centers for Disease Control
A sequester would cut the Preventive Health Care block grant, grants for sexually transmitted
disease clinics, childhood immunization grants, research on occupational safety and health, health
statistics, and HIV/AIDS grants.
A sequester would sharply reduce service to the public, including approximately 1,000,000 children,
who would not be vaccinated for polio, measles, mumps, rubella, haemophilus influenza b, diphtheria,
tetanus, and pertussis. Other effects include: (1) decreased support for block grants could eliminate
over 50 percent of States' prevention programs in tuberculosis, smoking, nutrition, and chronic diseases;
(2) efforts to prevent the spread of sexually transmitted diseases would be hampered: 300,000 fewer
persons would be examined for syphilis, 2,500,000 fewer persons would be tested for gonorrhea, and
1,000,000 fewer persons would be tested for chlamydia; (3) the number of births monitored for changes
in the incidence of birth defects would decrease by 60,000; and (4) approximately 200 disease outbreaks
would not be investigated.
Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
A sequester could (1) lengthen the drug review process, (2) suspend efforts to make experimental
therapies available to patients with no therapeutic alternatives, and (3) reduce inspections of foods,
25
270-858 o 90 3 ; OL 3
drugs, devices, and imports. The expedited review proposed for AIDS drugs would be slowed and field
inspections and product-related research would be reduced. The number of new orphan drug grants
awarded, laboratory equipment, and automobiles necessary for field inspections would be substantially
reduced. A sequester also would eliminate proposed enhancements for seafood and generic drug
inspections.
HIV/AIDS
A sequester would seriously cripple the Public Health Service's (PHS) efforts to prevent HIV
transmission and conduct research into therapies and vaccines, reducing funding below 1989. Fewer
promising therapies could be tested, fewer education and prevention programs could be supported,
and fewer research initiatives to develop cures and therapies could be pursued. Specifically, about
400 fewer AIDS research grants could be supported, and instead of hiring the 300 additional PHS
staff requested in 1991 for fighting AIDS, staff levels probably would be reduced.
Maternal and Child Health Block Grant-Health Resources and Services Administration
A sequester would reduce these block grants $114 million below the 1986 level, and could require
the States to reduce sharply perinatal health services for pregnant women and their infants. Perinatal
services provided by the States and the ability of States to carry out new requirements contained in
the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1989 would be severely limited. Cutbacks in perinatal
health care will have a direct effect on infant mortality and low birth weight, and will severely hamper
State efforts to establish case-management and community-based services that are accessible to the
most needy. The number of Special Projects of Regional and National Significance (SPRANS) could
be cut by a minimum of 150 (from 445). SPRANS grants focus on improved services to high risk
groups, promotion of early and continuous prenatal care, reduction in neonatal mortality, and reduced
behavioral risk activities in pregnant women.
Research at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Alcohol, Drug Abuse, and Mental
Health Administration (ADAMHA)
A sequester would threaten the Federal Government's substantial commitment to pursuing new
scientific opportunities and searching for new cures and therapies and seriously curtail efforts to
invest in the nation's future health. A sequester could reduce by over 9,000 the number of Public
Health Service-supported research grants (from a total of 28,000) and cut by over 4,200 the number
of scientists receiving Federal research training assistance.
Social Security Administration (SSA)
A sequester in SSA's Limitation on Administration Expense account would force SSA to postpone
new hiring and training, defer most work not directly related to paying and processing benefits (such
as issuance of Personal Earnings and Benefit Statements to young workers and reconciling discrepant
wage records of young workers), slow down contract payments and other deferable payments, and
postpone nearly all automation system upgrades. All of these steps would affect service over time,
but not immediately.
After taking these initial cost savings steps, SSA would be forced to slow down or divert staff
resources from non-payment related services. For instance, SSA might be forced to focus resources
on taking initial applications for social security benefits and to close portions of the 800 number
telephone service for a period during the year. SSA would also cut back significantly on monitoring
of the benefit rolls (such as evaluations of continuing disability and eligibility for Supplemental
Security Income-SSI) which would increase overpayment of benefits that may be difficult to collect.
Even with these cost savings steps, SSA would be forced to develop priorities for claims related
work, perhaps trying to get benefits first to those most in need (SSI applicants) while deferring or
slowing down claims by persons with other means (high income retirement applications).
Timely payment of Social Security and Supplemental Security Income benefits to some new
applicants could be threatened. SSA would likely be able to continue to pay benefits to currently
26
entitled persons, although any post-entitlement changes, such as new addresses, would probably be
deferred or significantly slowed. New applicants, however, might have to wait longer to get their first
monthly checks.
In addition to reducing Federal staffing available to process work, a sequester of this size would
force a significant reduction in the administrative budget available for State agencies determining
disabilities for SSA. These agencies, which are budgeted to receive $800 million in 1991, make all
initial disability determinations. A reduction in their resources could slow their processing of disability
decisions.
Social Services
A sequester would result in: (1) a reduction of $715 million from the budget for Head Start (this
would fund the enrollment of 208,400 fewer poor four-year-old children from the planned 548,400);
(2) a reduction of $163 million from the budget in grants to support meals for the elderly (this would
fund 106 million fewer meals from the planned 258,740,000); and (3) a reduction of $1,065 million
from the budget for the Social Services block grant that would require States to decide whether to
make across-the-board cuts, redistribute reductions among all service areas, or eliminate certain
service categories and maintain others at current funding.
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)
A sequester would:
Reduce funds available for the extension of expiring housing contracts to a level that might
cause some low-income families to lose their housing assistance and possibly become homeless.
Cut the number of new subsidized households assisted from 82,000 in the budget to 45,000
after the sequester.
Force some public housing agencies (PHA's) to discontinue their efforts to eliminate drugs in
public housing, defer regular maintenance on the housing stock, increase future modernization
costs, and possibly threaten the health and safety of residents.
Delay and hamper efforts to help end homelessness. Funding would be below 1990 and far
below the levels authorized in the McKinney Act. Long term solutions to aid the homeless
would be prevented.
Delay efforts to assist tenants adversely affected by prepayment of HUD subsidized mortgages.
Eliminate proposed improvements in the oversight and monitoring of HUD funds and jeopardize
recent improvements. These improvements are aimed at reducing waste, fraud, and abuse in
multi-billion dollar HUD programs.
Impair management of HUD's programs because of a lack of staff-instead of focusing on
improvements in monitoring and internal control systems, HUD officials would need to manage
staff furloughs to stay within constrained funding. Such furloughs would increase further the
risk of waste, fraud and abuse in these multi-billion dollar programs.
Delay the approval of housing construction projects due to insufficient staff.
Department of the Interior
Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA)
A sequester would reduce funds from the 1991 request for BIA elementary and secondary school
operations by $2,200 per Indian student. At least half (about 80) of BIA's schools would close and the
school year would have to be shortened for the remaining schools.
One of BIA's two post-secondary schools would close entirely. The remaining school would have
to operate with a shortened school year. All capital expenditures on facilities improvements would be
deferred. Aid for post-secondary education would be unavailable for 6,100 Indian students (a 44
27
percent reduction from the 1991 request). Vocational education training would be denied to 1,300
Indian students.
Funding for the BIA general assistance (welfare) program would be reduced by $20 million below
the request. This would prevent the BIA from making assistance payments for almost five months
during the year to an estimated 50,000 needy individual Indians.
Bureau of Land Management (BLM)
A sequester would curtail on-the-ground management of public lands, including inspection and
enforcement of mining and mineral leasing operations, grazing, timber, recreation, wilderness, and
wildlife programs. Reduced inspection of mineral leases would result in reduced revenues from Indian
and Federal leases. A major automation initiative, the Automated Land and Mineral Records System
(ALMRS) that is part of BLM's integrated Modernization effort, would be postponed, and hazardous
materials management inventory and cleanup efforts would be drastically reduced on 270 million
acres of public land managed by BLM in 28 States. Also, discretionary fire fighting pre-suppression
activities would be cut back, possibly increasing the ultimate cost of emergency fire suppression
operations.
The America the Beautiful initiatives for BLM, including Recreation 2000 and Wildlife 2000,
would effectively be shut down. BLM's increased drug eradication and interdiction program could not
be supported. Land acquisition, maintenance and construction projects would be cut in half. The
ability to offer allowable cut timber volumes in western Oregon would be greatly reduced, thereby
significantly reducing receipts and payments to Oregon and California counties.
Bureau of Reclamation
A sequester would result in no new contract awards to continue work on water projects currently
under construction and no major rehabilitation or improvement work at existing projects. Further
adjustments would be required, including the termination of contingent construction contracts (with
payment of penalties) for existing projects. This would lead to delays in the completion of projects,
the realization of project benefits, and, in some cases, the initiation of project repayment.
Routine preventive maintenance efforts at dams, pumping plants, canals, and other project
features would be curtailed, as necessary, in order to continue the operation of project facilities. This
might result in higher project maintenance and repair costs in future years. Operations at some
existing projects might be curtailed due to a lack of funds for repairs or required maintenance to
ensure safe operation of project facilities.
Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS)
A sequester would not permit nine new National Wildlife Refuges to open in 1991 as planned,
100 refuges would be placed in caretaker status, law enforcement activities associated with drug
control on FWS lands would be severely curtailed, funding for FWS America the Beautiful land
acquisition and resource protection initiatives would be drastically reduced, and the North American
Waterfowl Management Plan (that provides the focal point for the restoration of North American
waterfowl populations) would not be implemented.
Other examples would be: (1) planned acquisition of water rights to help restore the important
Stillwater National Wildlife Refuge in Nevada would not be implemented; (2) FWS would not meet
its planned target of restoring some 13,000 acres of high priority wetlands; (3) at least 15 national
fish hatcheries would have reduced operations and curtailed production, and several hatcheries would
be closed; (4) the environmental contaminants program would be adversely affected, resulting in
reduced contaminant clean-up on FWS lands; and (5) substantial funding to States would be delayed
for one year for the Wallop-Breaux and Pittman-Robertson fish and wildlife programs.
28
Geological Survey
A sequester would adversely affect operation of the Global Climate Change Research program;
the National Water Quality Assessment program, designed to determine the status and trends of the
Nation's ground and surface waters, and which would not become operational in 1991 as planned;
and the Advanced Cartographic System (ACS), an effort to develop and implement a new, state-of-the-art
cartographic data collection, analysis, and presentation system.
Ongoing programs adversely affected would be geologic and mineral resources investigations,
including important studies in earthquake and volcano hazards and energy resources assessments.
The collection and analysis of water resources data would be lessened, possibly resulting in voids in
various databases or delays in research dependent on such information.
Operation of approximately 675 water quality streamflow stations would be discontinued in the
Federal Data Collection and Analysis program. Approximately 3,000 water quality streamflow gauges
and as many as 180 cooperative investigations would have to be discontinued in the Federal-State
Cooperative Data Collection and Analysis program. The grant to each of the 54 State Water Resources
Research Institutes would be significantly reduced.
Historic Preservation fund
A sequester would translate into smaller grants to State historic preservation offices and to the
National Trust for Historic Preservation. Some grants might be eliminated. Fewer properties would
be nominated to and placed on the National Register of Historic Preservation; efforts to ensure that
State and local development planning and permitting recognize historic values would be reduced; and
public visitation to National Trust properties might be curtailed. Efforts that now help to ensure that
local planning and permitting recognize historic values would be eliminated.
Minerals Management Service
A sequester would cause major reductions to the auditing staff and reduce the accuracy of revenue
collections of royalties from minerals production on Federal lands. Revenues would be reduced due
to an inability to audit royalty collections effectively. In addition, there would be a reduction in
inspection staff and helicopter support needed to enforce safe and environmentally sound operations
of outer continental shelf oil and gas operations. Revenues would be reduced due to the cancellation
of new off-shore oil and gas leasing. Environmental studies and lease preparation activities would be
curtailed, leading to further delays in off-shore leasing.
National Park Service (NPS)
A sequester would severely and adversely affect NPS's ability to keep parks safe and open to the
visiting public. Park operating funds would be reduced to levels available in the mid-1970's. There
has been significant expansion of the park system since that time. Many of these newer and smaller
units would be closed to permit the "Crown Jewels" (e.g., Yellowstone, Yosemite, and the Grand
Canyon) to remain open to the public. Funding for regional repair and rehabilitation programs would
be cut to focus only on emergencies. Resource protection efforts would be continued at a suitable level
in some areas, while other areas would be essentially closed until greater resources became available.
Seasonal hiring would be eliminated and hundreds of park rangers and maintenance staff would
be furloughed. All back country areas would be closed to hikers and campers because there would be
no one to patrol the areas. Park Police efforts in urban parks, including drug law enforcement, would
be substantially curtailed. Discretionary ecological research projects, such as the effects of acid rain
and aircraft noise studies, would be suspended.
The America the Beautiful initiative for NPS covering land acquisition, resource protection, and
recreation enhancement would be severely curtailed.
29
Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (OSM)
A sequester would lead to reduced inspections for surface mine land reclamation activities and
oversight of State inspection activities. Reductions in State regulatory grants would endanger the
primacy of State oversight programs. OSM's ability to respond to emergency reclamation needs through
its emergency reclamation program would be limited. This could lead to increased risks to the health
and safety of miners and communities experiencing emergency reclamation requirements.
Payments to States by the Minerals Management Service
A sequester would delay a portion of the payments due to 27 States (primarily in the West) until
1992 and disrupt planned activities. States might not have adequate funding for schools, roads, and
emergencies.
The impact on the six largest payments would be:

Department of Justice
Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA)
A sequester would eliminate 1991 program enhancements, thereby crippling this element of the
President's drug strategy. Across-the-board reductions to domestic marijuana eradication programs,
State and local task forces, foreign cooperative investigations, domestic enforcement programs, and
intelligence activities would also be required. Training for State and local police officers and imple-
mentation of the Chemical Control and Trafficking Act would also be curtailed. Further, planned
purchases of investigative and automated data processing equipment and some major computer
contracts would be canceled.
In some cities and rural areas, DEA would simply have no presence. Foreign support would be
spread so thin that cooperative efforts with foreign governments would be hindered and the security
of our agents would be at great risk. All State and local programs such as task forces, training, and
laboratory support would be eliminated. The result might be increased drug trafficking because drug
dealers are quick to notice the level of effort expended by the Federal Government on law enforcement.
Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI)
A sequester would leave all 1991 program enhancements unfunded. Funding for the President's
Financial Fraud and Crime Initiative packages implemented in 1990 would be reduced. Prosecution
of those who have perpetrated savings and loan institutions fraud would be slowed. New investigative
programs such as white collar crime investigations aimed at procurement fraud, and investigations
of Asian organized crime would be severely impaired. The foreign counterintelligence and drug
programs would be diminished substantially. Specifically, the anticipated completion of white collar
crime investigations would likely drop by 25 percent (1,000-plus fewer convictions) from planned 1991
levels. The FBI's efforts directed at Asian groups would not advance in 1991 while current investigative
efforts would be cut in half. Investigations into La Cosa Nostra and other major organized crime
30
groups would be cut by 20 percent from planned 1991 levels. Major equipment purchases affecting
the fingerprint automation and field office management system programs would be canceled. Training
for State and local officers would also be curtailed.
Priority investigative programs and those in which the FBI has sole law enforcement jurisdiction
would be affected. As all equipment purchases would be foregone, agents would be inadequately
equipped to use the sophisticated investigative techniques required for complex cases. Continued use
of obsolete protective equipment would expose agents to possibly dangerous situations. The FBI would
be unable to provide adequate support for automated data processing and telecommunications oper-
ations integral to information collection and analysis in support of investigative operations. All State
and local programs, such as the Uniform Crime Report publications, laboratory analysis of evidence,
and fingerprint identification work, would be halted. It is also likely that crime and foreign intelligence
activities would increase during this period as the deterrence factor decreases.
Federal Prison System (FPS)
A sequester would prevent newly constructed prisons with 3,315 beds from becoming operational,
and force FPS to move 6,595 prisoners out of non-Federal contract facilities and into its already
overcrowded facilities, increasing overcrowding to well over 89 percent from the current level of about
70 percent. It would eliminate the staff increases (2,000 work years) necessary to address inadequate
staff levels, and require furloughing 5,600 employees. This would eliminate staff training, greatly
reduce FPS's administrative efforts, and reduce the quality and amount of food and medical services,
inmate security, and inmate supervision.
Virtually every program available to inmates within the prisons (e.g., rehabilitative and educa-
tional) would be eliminated, thereby causing FPS to "lock down" all institutions and inviting inmate
idleness, violence, and court intervention.
Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS)
A sequester would prevent INS from hiring 200 new Border Patrol staff and building new traffic
checkpoints to intercept drug and alien smugglers that are important elements of the President's
drug strategy. Such a funding level would hamper INS's border enforcement activities, processing of
travelers across our land borders, and efforts to deter illegal immigration through detention of aliens
and enforcement of employer sanctions. Such massive cutbacks would be likely to lead to major
influxes of illegal aliens that were common prior to the enactment of the Immigration Reform and
Control Act in 1986.
Even basic operations would be seriously impacted. Reductions in enforcement activities would
immobilize operations and seriously jeopardize the ability of the INS to stem the flow of illegal aliens
and the ever-increasing flow of illegal drugs. The ability of INS to detain and process criminal aliens
apprehended by the Border Patrol would be constrained because of a lack of detention officers and
funding to operate detention facilities. Investigations of major alien smuggling operations would be
seriously reduced. Major backups would be experienced at ports-of-entry. Backlogs in processing of
refugee and asylum applications as well as adjudication requests would be inevitable.
U.S. Attorneys' Office
Reduced staff resulting from a sequester would prevent litigation of any cases that would have
been litigated as a result of increased resources provided for the crime and financial institution fraud
initiatives in 1990. Specific areas that would be affected are prosecutions of narcotics cases, bankruptcy
and procurement fraud cases, and other criminal fraud prosecutions.
U.S. Attorneys would be forced to abandon almost 25 percent of all ongoing litigation designed
to obtain criminal convictions against violators of substance abuse, immigration and civil rights laws,
organized criminal groups, and tax evaders. Attorneys would slow down efforts to recover monies
from failed institutions resulting from saving and loan and bank fraud violations. All ongoing activities
for collecting monies owed to the Government would be limited. Litigation designed to defend the
Government from substantial monetary losses as a result of other types of fraud would be reduced.
31
Department of Labor
A sequester would have the following effects on Department of Labor (DOL) programs, compared
with the 1991 request:
Some 8,000 work years would be lost across all DOL agencies, requiring reductions-in-force in
all enforcement programs. Among other effects, some 29,100 fewer work places would be
inspected by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, 27,400 fewer mine inspections
would be initiated, increases for improving pension oversight as well as some base funding
would be eliminated, and DOL's ability to maintain its core national labor force statistical series
would be in jeopardy.
In the DOL State grant programs area, States would close 250 or more of the 1,900 local offices
that process walk-in unemployment insurance claims and provide employment services. Staff
at remaining offices and operating hours would be reduced. Claims delays would be univer-
sal-taking up to five days in some areas; States would divert any remaining resources from
program integrity efforts and devote them to processing claims. The quality control program
would be abandoned.
For the Job Corps, the sequester would mean reducing the program by up to 15,600 slots. This
could require closing about 39 of the existing 107 Job Corps centers, reducing the number of
centers to 68. Work on acquiring and operating the six new centers mandated by Congress
would have to cease if current centers have to be closed. As a result, no funds would be available
to operate the two new centers scheduled to open in 1991, while plans to open two new centers
in 1992 and 1993 would be postponed or curtailed. The Job Corps anti-drug initiative would
be canceled.
Some 141,000 fewer participants would be served in the President's Job Training Partnership
Act (JTPA) training program for severely disadvantaged adults and 260,000 fewer low-income
young adults would be enrolled in the new initiatives targeted on this at-risk group. Participation
in each program would drop by about 38 percent. Implementation of the President's new JTPA
initiative would be curtailed. About 91,000 fewer displaced workers would receive readjustment
assistance in JTPA's dislocated worker program.
Approximately 21,500 fewer subsidized job slots for low income persons age 55 and older would
be financed in the Older Americans Employment program, representing a 38 percent cut in
program participation.
Department of State
Under a sequester in operations accounts, large infrastructure related projects, such as construction
of the new Foreign Service training facility would stop, and procurement and maintenance would be
eliminated. Maintenance at over 2,200 Government-owned and long-term leased properties overseas
would fall below minimum levels, and the Department would be forced to defer the foreign affairs
community's high priority telecommunications enhancement (DOSTN) as well as important consular,
procurement, accounting and finance computer upgrades. In addition, nine embassy construction
projects at high threat posts planned to begin in 1991 would be put on hold because of a lack of
construction security funds, and plans for new construction projects would be eliminated. Major
rehabilitations of four high priority posts would also be deferred.
The Department of State would be required to either close, or significantly reduce staffing in,
the majority of its over 240 overseas missions. Except in a few critical instances, most diplomatic
reporting and representational activities would stop. Public oriented activities such as consular and
visa services and trade promotion programs would either cease or be limited to only emergency
situations. Services to the public from Washington and other domestic offices in areas such as passport
issuances, munitions licensing, Freedom of Information requests, and export promotion would either
cease or be reduced to unacceptable levels.
The security of the Department's personnel, property, and classified information would be threat-
ened by reductions in physical and technical security programs. The multi-billion dollar inventory in
overseas properties, anti-terrorism equipment, and information management systems would be left
32
vulnerable to both technical and security failures because of the lack of funds for required maintenance
and repair. Overseas inspections, including those of the newly-established Office of Security Oversight,
would be eliminated.
The State Department would be unable to meet U.S. treaty obligations for our assessed share of
the budgets of international organizations, thereby increasing total U.S. arrearages to over $1 billion.
This would likely result in the loss of our vote in some of the UN-affiliated and other international
organizations. In addition, U.S. effectiveness would be hurt in shaping the agendas of multilateral
organizations that manage programs such as nuclear energy safety, AIDS research, and the peaceful
resolution of armed conflicts in important regions of the world such as Central America and Middle
East. It would also reduce the U.S. ability to participate in the critical Conference on Security and
Cooperation in Europe (CSCE), "Open Skies", and other conferences that are aimed at influencing
the fundamental changes occurring in East-West relations.
Anti-narcotics efforts associated with the National Drug Control Policy in the Andean nations of
South America, overseas humanitarian assistance, and funded refugee admissions into the United
States, particularly from the Soviet Union, would be reduced. Efforts to improve anti-terrorism
programs designed to prevent the reoccurrence of disasters like that of Pan Am 103 would be hindered.
Department of Transportation
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
Under a sequester, the hours of operation at virtually all airport control towers and, therefore,
the number of flights between cities, would be reduced. The air traffic control system would turn into
chaos. Reductions of this magnitude would unquestionably require the airlines to cancel numerous
scheduled flights with negative financial consequences for the airline industry. Major cutbacks in the
air traffic controller work force would produce service interruptions far more extensive than those
experienced after the 1981 strike. Delays to air travelers would increase by 400-600 percent. Even
worse, a major FAA cutback and disruption in 1991 would affect air travelers for at least three years
due to recovery problems.
There would be extensive closure of facilities, including all contract towers. Over 100 control
towers would have to be taken out of service or the hours of operation drastically reduced. Imple-
mentation activity and training for modernization of the airspace system would be curtailed. Training
and hiring for the future air traffic control computer system would fall three years behind schedule.
Delays in repairing navigational aids would cause time-consuming rerouting of aircraft and
intermittent closure of some airports. Reductions in safety inspector and security staff, including
Federal air marshals, would result in fewer scheduled inspections of aircraft and airports.
Many major computer and radar contracts that are approaching the peak year of their delivery
schedules would be canceled or renegotiated. This would add several years to the schedule for
modernization the air traffic control system. Contract penalties due to stop-restart requirements of
the sequester would exceed $500 million. Critical technical skills would be lost for several years.
FAA also would have to postpone: (1) the replacement of various facilities, such as airport control
towers planned for San Diego, Chicago Midway, Kansas City, and Los Angeles and stall construction
already underway at Chicago O'Hare, St. Louis, and Newark; (2) upgrading computer software and
hardware used by controllers to separate aircraft, which could exacerbate the problem at some facilities
of information disappearing from controller radar screens; (3) joint development of long range radar
replacements used to ensure safe operation and separation of aircraft; (4) establishment of a voice
communications system required for the sector suite system; and (5) maintenance of many FAA
buildings and facilities, which would delay FAA work to strengthen buildings in earthquake risk areas
and to extend the service life of buildings built in the 1940's that house electronic systems. Cuts of
this size would also postpone installation of equipment needed at the new Denver airport and continued
expansion at Dallas/Fort Worth.
33
Installation of approximately 400 items of national airspace system equipment procured in prior
years would be delayed. This would jeopardize the safety of the air transportation system and result
in further delaying modernization of the system. Such delays would include the upgrade of radar,
communications, weather information, automated data processing, and tower and en route center
equipment.
Critically needed airport improvement and capacity enhancement programs related to providing
new capabilities directly aimed at reducing congestion in the national air system would be deferred.
This would include a slowdown in the interim plan to support the airspace system until modernization
is completed.
The FAA would be unable to follow-through with current efforts to expand its overseas security
presence and full implementation of the recommendations of the President's Commission on Aviation
Security and Terrorism would be slowed. Also, FAA would delay implementation of anti-drug activities
required by the Drug Control Act of 1988.
Select research and development contracts would be canceled or delayed. Progress on numerous
FAA research and development programs that are directly tied to safety and capacity improvements
for air traffic control computers would be delayed by more than a year. Progress on new explosive
detection technology research would continue but at a much slower rate. The President's Commission
on Airline Security and Terrorism recently urged acceleration of this research.
Federal Railroad Administration
A sequester would result in a 40 percent reduction in scheduled safety inspections of railroad
track, bridges, equipment, and operations. In addition, DOT's automated track inspection vehicle
would have to reduce planned operations from a planned 28,500 miles to 20,500 miles on passenger,
hazardous materials, and other priority routes. Federal oversight of the railroad industry's actions
to eliminate drug and alcohol usage among railroad workers would be interrupted.
Department of the Treasury
Internal Revenue Service (IRS)
A sequester would primarily affect revenue-generating enforcement activities with an estimated
revenue loss of $8.5 billion. The indirect effects on voluntary compliance produced by the perception
of a faltering IRS enforcement presence would be even greater. Taxpayer service would fall precipitously
and taxpayers would find it more difficult to complete their returns; 15 million fewer taxpayers would
receive assistance and busy signals for those seeking assistance by telephone would increase expo-
nentially.
All computer investments, including the critical Tax System Modernization project, would be
deferred, increasing the chance of a returns processing breakdown in the future. Returns processing
work would demand top resource priority but there would be delays in refund checks. If it takes IRS
longer than 45 days to process a refund, interest must be paid to the taxpayer. The impact of the
sequester would greatly increase these interest payments. Tax processing errors would increase as
fewer employees, struggling to meet workload, would not be able to exercise proper care and attention
to their work.
The projected loss of 9,000 workers in returns processing would prevent a closure of filing season
work (e.g., returns processing for one year would not be completed before returns for the next year
arrived). Inventories of unprocessed returns would grow into. subsequent years. There would be no
IRS participation in the war on drugs in order to preserve a focus on essential criminal tax fraud
issues.
United States Customs Service
A sequester would eliminate all 1991 initiatives, including staffing for the southwest border,
canine enforcement teams, money laundering investigations, and financial integrity. Additionally,
34
staffing cuts of roughly 50 percent would be required, with commensurate declines in enforcement
and commercial program effectiveness.
In practical terms, a sequester would mean fewer cargo container inspections (36 percent less
than 1990), a 120 percent increase in delays in releasing cargo, lost tariff revenues, and fewer drug
seizures. The protection afforded domestic industry by Customs enforcement efforts would erode.
Investments in the labor saving Automated Commercial Systems (ACS) program would be postponed.
Longer passenger processing delays would occur at border crossings and airports. Many of the smaller
ports along the northern border and other locations could be closed or face curtailed service hours.
An estimated $1 billion in revenue would be lost due to lack of adequate processing controls.
Contraband entries would expand and the war against drug imports would be severely hampered.
Department of Veterans Affairs
A sequester, compared with the 1991 request, would:
Require significant reductions in purchases of medical and other supplies and equipment,
prevent the opening of new facilities, cancel 1991 initiatives (e.g., increases for drug abuse
treatment, quality assurance, physician and nurses pay), reduce medical care staff years by
15,600 or eight percent, and reduce the number of incidents of care (e.g., hospital stays and
outpatient visits) provided to veterans by 2.0 million;
Reduce operating staff associated with the Veterans Benefits Administration, the National
Cemetery System, and administrative activities, forgo scheduled computer upgrades and ac-
quisitions, and delay interments in many of the smaller national cemeteries. Staff reductions
in regional offices would be inevitable and would reduce the timeliness and quality of benefits
claims processing and the servicing of delinquent guaranteed loans below 1990 levels;
Reduce bed levels (by 350) and clinical services in all proposed construction and renovation
projects (medical centers, regional offices, and cemeteries). Project redesigns caused by reductions
in the size and scope of these projects would delay planning and construction by at least a year
and nine months and hamper the provision of quality health care to eligible veterans; and
Disproportionately reduce the contributory Montgomery bill program (because over half of the
educational programs for disabled veterans' dependents and vocational rehabilitation are ex-
empt) affecting annual benefit payments ranging from $1,300 to $2,200 to nearly 125,000
veterans and service persons.
Other Agencies
Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC)
A sequester would have a devastating impact on enforcement actions, especially in light of the
recent trading abuses in the Chicago futures markets. This would permit only 79 enforcement actions
to be completed compared to 124 in 1989, a reduction of 64 percent. Market surveillance would be
reduced by 25 percent at a time when additional surveillance is needed to protect hedging and pricing
functions of these markets. There could be increased commodities fraud as no new enforcement actions
would be undertaken. The result would be a less competitive market environment with less protection
for market participants. For example, family farmers who forward price their products with county
grain elevators would be exposed to greater market risks. CFTC's overall program output would be
reduced by one-half, reversing actions to increase and strengthen CFTC's regulatory capacity.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
The major impacts of a sequester would be:
Severe reductions in State environmental programs, which typically receive half their funding
from EPA grants;
Cancellation of EPA's wetlands initiatives;
35
A decreased level of corrective actions undertaken at operating hazardous waste facilities at a
time when EPA will be responsible for an expanded universe of regulated facilities and hazardous
substances;
Delays in the development of regulations and inability to meet court-ordered deadlines for
various regulations;
Reduced information made available to the public because of reductions in automated data
processing funding;
Severe limitations on EPA's ability to implement the new Clean Air Act amendments. EPA
probably could not meet the first year deadlines in the Clean Air Act amendments and technical
and financial assistance to States to implement the amendments would be severely restricted;
Halting all new Superfund cleanups, undermining the public's confidence in Federal clean-up
efforts; and the Government's leverage to make the polluters pay. Decreased enforcement and
fewer cleanups funded by responsible parties, and more fund-financed cleanups. Lower cost
recoveries would prevent the fund from being replenished;
Severe slippage in numerous Clean Water Act requirements, including monitoring of water
quality, issuance of National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permits, and
development of water quality criteria;
Serious delays in the cleanups of specific bodies such as the Great Lakes, the Chesapeake Bay,
and the 17 estuaries in the national estuary program;
Reduction of 50 percent in air pollution enforcement activities such as stationary source in-
spections, notices of violation, administrative orders, and civil and criminal litigation; and
Curtailed analysis of Toxic Release Inventory (TRI) reports, delay availability of the TRI data
base to the public, reduce resources available for data quality assurance, and eliminate en-
forcement actions against non-reporters.
Judicial Branch
A sequester would have the following effects:
30 percent of Federal defenders' cases and 100 percent of panel attorney cases would be dismissed
for failure to provide counsel, or counsel would be appointed without compensation;
3 percent of the estimated payments committed to pay panel attorneys for prior year case
assignments could not be paid;
Inmates filing new death penalty habeas corpus petitions would not have their cases reviewed
by a Federal court, or counsel would have to be appointed without compensation;
Funds would not be available for fees of jurors for civil trials, denying the public their right to
a civil jury trial;
Funds would not be available for fees of jurors for approximately two months of the year for
criminal trials;
The community supervision programs of the probation system would suffer the burden of
personnel shortages; 52 percent of the offenders in these programs would not have their
supervision enforced;
Testing and treatment of 19 percent of drug offenders would be terminated; and
Expansion of home detention (electronic monitoring) of offenders could not be accomplished
resulting in increased jail costs.
National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)
A sequester would cause a major restructuring of all NASA activities. The Space Station would
be canceled (with a termination liability of about $600 million). In space science, technology and
aeronautics, the Moon/Mars Initiative and Mission to Planet Earth would be deferred and two to
36
three major science projects under development would have to be canceled (e.g., Comet Rendezvous/As-
teroid Flyby, Advanced X-Ray Astrophysics Facility). In addition, reductions would have to be made
in the operations support for spacecraft (e.g., Magellan mission to Venus). With the exception of critical
safety-related items, all facility construction and renovation would be stopped.
The 10 planned Shuttle flights during 1991 would be postponed or canceled. The eleven missions
planned for 1992 would also have to be postponed or canceled, effectively suspending Shuttle operations
until 1993. (Recovery from this suspension would entail a re-hiring and recertification of the contractor
work force.) The purchase of critical spare parts, the development of the Advanced Solid Rocket Motor,
and the procurement of expendable launch vehicles would be terminated. All planned safety improve-
ments to the Shuttle would be deferred. Additional terminations or postponements would include all
shuttle engine ground testing, all orbiter modifications, all planned Shuttle equipment upgrades, and
all procurement of upper stage rockets and payload operations. Engineering laboratories and on-line
Shuttle facilities would be placed on a "caretaker" status.
National Science Foundation (NSF)
A sequester would terminate support to roughly 28,000 individuals, including senior investigators,
graduate and undergraduate students, pre-college teachers, and high school students. In addition, it
would defer or terminate all new initiatives and many existing programs, including Science and
Technology Centers, Engineering Research Centers, precollege education programs, graduate fellow-
ships, and global change research. It would shut down the U.S. Antarctic program for 1991 operations
and defer or terminate any remaining activities in the economic competitiveness and human resources
areas.
Office of Personnel Management (OPM)
A sequester of OPM's civilian retirement obligation limitation would: (1) increase existing backlogs
in death claims, refunds, and initial annuity payout processing (currently, the initial annuity payment
can take as long as six to nine months and lump-sum refunds about 3 months to process) and would
likely extend by three to six months the processing of initial annuity and lump-sum payments; (2)
stall design and development of the automated Federal Employees' Retirement System (FERS) project
that is meant to automate FERS retirement processing and definitely push into 1992 or beyond the
major start-up activities for the FERS automated record keeping system. This would result in the
continuing build-up of paper records for the FERS system similar to what exists for the Civil Service
Retirement System.; and (3) force cutbacks in essential processing staff training and quality assurance
activities.
OPM would eliminate all 1991 initiatives including funding for the Public Policy Scholarship,
training for front-line workers, and the Commission on the Public Service. The Presidential Manage-
ment Intern Program would not be permitted to double in size as was authorized by Executive Order.
It would eliminate OPM's ability to implement pay reform, would cut current staffing levels, and
require the consolidation of area offices and the deferral of the acquisition of new computer equipment.
The backlog of National Agency Checks and Investigations would increase by about 32,000 cases as
OPM would not be able to provide timely investigations for agencies.
OPM would lose oversight and evaluation capacity and staffing research and development.
OPM's retirement and insurance functions would probably not possess the level of resources for
account maintenance activities, to carry out its fiduciary responsibilities, or to provide a minimally
acceptable level of services to its beneficiaries.
Civilian retirement claims processing reductions would put in jeopardy the timely payment of
monthly annuities to 2.2 million Federal civilian retirees. The typical annuitant receives a monthly
annuity of approximately $1,450 ($17,400 per annum) and may have no other source of retirement
income. Delays in the payment of annuities could prevent annuitants from being able to finance their
basic necessities.
37
270-858 O 90 4 QL 3
Retirement and insurance processing times for interim payments, annuity cases, death cases and
refund claims would double and triple. Workload balances for annuity, death, refund and deposit
claims, annuity roll maintenance, and health benefits disputed claims would increase three- to ten-fold.
Congress and senior citizen advocates would strongly object to delayed processing of monthly
annuity checks. The lengthy delay in processing initial annuity payments would directly conflict with
an Administration goal and a President's Commission on Management Initiatives commitment to
expedite new retiree initial annuity payments.
Reductions in the Government Payments for Annuitants would prevent payment of the
Government's share of health premiums. A cut in enrollee payments might occur.
Front-line training initiatives would be eliminated. The time needed to fill agency job requests
would double or triple, and the Presidential Management Intern Program and other entry-level
programs designed to bring new talent into the Federal Government would be eliminated.
The time needed to process special rate requests would more than double and compliance activity
and work on classification standards would be cut by half. This would result in less qualified staff
Government-wide, thus severely degrading the quality of products and services.
OPM could not pay the Federal Employee Health Benefit carriers the Government share of
employee health insurance premiums. The result would be a cut in enrollee benefits. Reductions in
the Government Payment for Annuitants would result in the Government being negligent in meeting
its statutorily required payment on behalf of annuitants.
Railroad Retirement Board
A sequester would reduce railroad retirement supplemental annuities by $34 million. Supplemental
annuities are paid to roughly 200,000 rail retirees who have 25 or more years of railroad service.
Railroad unemployment and sickness insurance benefits would be reduced by $40 million from the
estimated $105 million. The reduction would affect the welfare of 60,000 railroad workers dependent
on unemployment and sickness benefits.
Small Business Administration
A sequester would force as many as 40 field offices to close. Small Business Assistance and
Advocacy programs, including programs for the promotion of minorities, women and international
trade assistance, would be sharply curtailed. Lending and surety bond program levels would be
reduced by more than $2.1 billion.
38
APPENDIX A: COMPARISONS WITH
CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE ESTIMATES
The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) released revised baseline estimates on June 20, 1990.
These estimates show a 1991 baseline deficit of $232.1 billion, or $0.7 billion more than the comparable
OMB baseline deficit estimate of $231.4 billion. Both the CBO and OMB estimates assume spending
by the Resolution Trust Corporation above what is permitted under current law to address the
problems of insolvent savings and loans. Table A-1 below compares the OMB and CBO baseline
estimates.

Section 221(b) of the Legislative Reorganization Act of 1970 (30 USC 1106) requires that the
Mid-Session Review include a summary "for the four fiscal years following the fiscal year for
which the budget is submitted, information on estimated expenditures for programs authorized
to continue in future years, or that are considered mandatory, under current law." These
projections indicate that under existing legislation and the economic assumptions shown in
Table 1, mandatory program outlays would rise by an average annual growth rate of 4.8 percent
between 1990 and 1995 while net interest would rise by an average 1.3 percent.
The law requires a projection of estimated spending in the four succeeding fiscal years from
the balances of budget authority outstanding at the end of 1991. These estimates for relatively
controllable programs are provided in Table D-2. Table D-2 also provides the estimated amount
of budget authority that will remain unexpended or that will have expired at the end of 1995.
The amount of budget authority balances for nonmandatory programs at the end of 1991 is
estimated to total $629.4 billion. It is estimated that $240.3 billion (38 percent) will be spent in
1992 and that $127.1 billion (20 percent) will be spent in 1993. None of the balances are
projected to expire between 1992 and 1995. At the end of 1995, it is estimated that $125.6 billion
(20 percent) will still be unexpended.
