Summary

Economic Growth and Government Efficiency Act of 1999 - Amends the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 (Gramm-Rudman-Hollings Act) to require the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), for any program funded by discretionary appropriations that is repealed by law in the fiscal year preceding the budget year, to determine: (1) the amount appropriated for the program in the last fiscal year the program was funded; and (2) based on such amount, the dollar equivalent of that amount adjusted for inflation in fiscal years beginning with the budget year through FY 2002. Includes such amounts as deficit decreases in OMB estimates and sequestration reports unless offset by legislation decreasing revenues. Reduces the discretionary caps by amounts equal to such deficit decreases. Amends the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 to provide that revenue decreases offset as provided by this Act shall not be treated as increasing the deficit.
