Unauthorized Appropriations and Expiring Authorizations, February 21, 2014 (In This Version, Appendix Material Is Sorted by Housing Authorizing Committee).

摘要

Each year, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) reports to the Congress on the following: All programs and activities funded for the current fiscal year for which authorizations of appropriations have expired; and All programs and activities for which authorizations of appropriations will expire during the current fiscal year. The requirement for that report is specified in section 202(e)(3) of the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974 (Congressional Budget Act). That section also specifies that the report be completed on or before January 15. In 2014, however, full-year appropriations were not enacted until mid-January. In order to make this year's report complete and up-todate, and thus as useful to the Congress as possible, and after consulting with the House and Senate budget committees, CBO delayed the issuance of this report until mid-February.
