Approved For Release 2011/08/26: CIA-RDP91 B00874R000200270016-5 Approved For Release 2011/08/26: CIA-RDP91 B00874R000200270016-5 ? A portion of the savings assumed in the budget resolution would be achieved by freezing dis- cretionary budget authority for most non-defense programs in fiscal 1987-89 at fiscal 1986 levels, resulting in spending levels below the CBO baseline. The Senate budget resolution makes exceptions to this comprehensive freeze, which are noted else- where in the assumptions. ? Budget authority would be $301 billion in fiscal 1987, $312.2 billion in 1988 and $327.2 billion in 1989. The figures reflect a 2.8 percent increase in fiscal 1987 to allow for inflation and 1 percent increases above inflation in 1988 and 1989. Reagan had requested fiscal 1987 budget authority of $320.3 billion, reflecting an estimated 8 percent growth above inflation. In fiscal 1987, outlays would be $282 billion, the same outlay figure re- quested by the president, but derived from a different, CBO-computed rate of spending. Outlays would be $291.8 billion in fiscal 1988 and $305.1 billion in 1989. ? Military and civilian defense employees' pay in- creases of 2 percent in January of each year, 1987- 89, are assumed. ? Already-enacted reconciliation provisions relating to third-party insurance reimbursement for cer- tain treatment performed in military hospitals and advance funding of civilian retirement credited because of military service (contained in HR 2672, a federal employee retirement bill) are assumed. (Related story, p. 1092) ? Fuel cost savings in fiscal 1987 due to falling oil prices are projected at $2.0 billion. ? To proceed with enhanced security of U.S. embas- sies, but at a slower pace than previously antici- pated, State Department salaries and expenses would rise 15 percent and the appropriation for foreign buildings would rise 65 percent. ? Foreign aid spending would be reduced 11 per- cent below a freeze. If aid programs for Egypt, Israel and nations where the United States has full access to local military bases are fully funded, the president's request for aid to other nations would be cut by a third. (Related stories, pp. 1099, 1101) ? The administration's request for more aid to the Philippines would be achieved by disbursing exist- ing appropriations accounts in fiscal 1986 rather than in the two following years, as previously assumed. ? Foreign broadcasting and exchange activities would be cut 10 percent below a freeze. ? Financing of $1.1 billion for the Export-Import Bank direct loan program is assumed, no change in the current budget authority level; this amount would have to be reduced if new export financing programs, such as a $300 million "Fair Export Financ- ing" program, or the administration's $1.8 billion "match" program of guaranteed private loans with reduced interest rates, were desired. Defense International Affairs Economic Affairs - 7 HOUSE ? The House resolution also assumes a freeze at fiscal 1986 spending levels for three years. Like the Senate, the House makes exceptions to the freeze, particularly for so-called "high-priority" programs, including those serving children, low-income per- sons and veterans, as well as law enforcement and embassy security. ? The House resolution also assumes a 2.5 percent cut in many non-defense discretionary programs. The spending cut, which also exempts certain "high- priority" programs, would be calculated after all other adjustments to domestic spending outlined below are calculated. ? Budget authority would be $285 billion in fiscal 1987, $295.5 billion in 1988 and $306.5 billion in 1989. Outlays would be $276.2 billion in fiscal 1987, $281.4 billion in 1988 and $290.5 billion in 1989. New spending authority would be $1.8 billion less than fiscal 1986. *Of the fiscal 1987 budget authority, $3 billion would not be available to the Appropriations committees until the defense secretary accounts for how fiscal 1986 inflation adjustments were used. (Related story, p. 1096) ? Military and civilian defense employees would receive 3 percent pay raises in January of each year, 1987-89. ? To enhance security of U.S. embassies, State De- partment budget authority would rise $1.1 billion in fiscal 1987, but $650 million of that would be cut from other State Department programs. ? Foreign aid outlays would be reduced overall by about 10 percent, to $12.3 billion. This would require a cut of $2.1 billion in budget authority. covr?wM T9 6 cony,..,q?el a, 1, In, Rw.d.- p.oMboed . -1,d. o, n pon ..,.p, by ddenol ,Mm, Approved For Release 2011/08/26: CIA-RDP91 B00874R000200270016-5
