Summary

Establishes the congressional budget for FY 1995 and sets forth appropriate budgetary levels for FY 1996 through 1999. Sets forth recommended budgetary levels of Federal revenues, new budget authority, budget outlays, deficits, public debt, and credit activity, including funding for each major functional category. Provides for adjusting total levels of budget authority, outlays, and revenues if health care reform legislation is reported. Expresses the sense of the Congress that the following legislation should be enacted: (1) enforceable limits to control the growth of entitlement or mandatory spending; (2) a regular procedure to provide assistance for disasters and other emergencies without adding to the deficit; and (3) expedited rescission authority over appropriations measures for the President. Expresses the sense of the Committee on the Budget that all financial transactions associated with health reform legislation relying on mandated payments to a Government entity be treated as part of the Federal budget. Expresses the concerns of the Committee on the Budget with respect to the costs to State and local government because of the Federal Government's failure to enforce immigration laws. Expresses the sense of the Congress on the need for reserve funds for emergencies. Expresses the sense of the Congress on imposing unfunded mandates on State and local government. Expresses the sense of the Congress that: (1) the President should submit a budget that compares proposed spending levels for the budget year with the current year; and (2) the starting point for deliberations on a budget resolution should be the current year.
