Version 00 · Introduced in House · Mar 15, 1993
Establishes the budget for FY 1994 and sets forth appropriate budgetary levels for FY 1995 through 1998. 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. Requires the House Budget Committee to report a reconciliation bill or resolution or both carrying out all recommendations of House committees concerning changes in laws to provide direct spending sufficient to reduce outlays. Expresses the sense of the Congress that: (1) the Government should sell assets from time to time; and (2) the amounts realized from such sales will not recur on an annual basis and do not reduce the demand for credit. Expresses the sense of the Congress that legislation enacting tax increases provide that net revenues shall not be counted for the purpose of calculating any deficit increase.
