                     TITLE II--BUDGETARY PROCEDURES

SEC. 21. SALE OF GOVERNMENT ASSETS.

    (a) Sense of the Congress.--It is the sense of the Congress that--
            (1) from time to time the United States Government should 
        sell assets; and
            (2) the amounts realized from such asset sales will not 
        recur on an annual basis and do not reduce the demand for 
        credit.
    (b) Finding.--The Congress finds that every budget resolution since 
that for fiscal year 1988 has included language prohibiting counting in 
the budget process the amounts realized from asset sales (other than 
loan assets).
    (c) Budgetary Treatment.--For purposes of points of order under 
this concurrent resolution and the Congressional Budget and Impoundment 
Control Act of 1974, the amounts realized from sales of assets (other 
than loan assets) shall not be scored with respect to the level of 
budget authority, outlays, or revenues.
    (d) Definitions.--For purposes of this section--
            (1) the term ``sale of an asset'' shall have the same 
        meaning as under section 250(c)(21) of the Balanced Budget and 
        Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 (as amended by the Budget 
        Enforcement Act of 1990); and
            (2) the term shall not include asset sales mandated by law 
        before September 18, 1987, and routine, ongoing asset sales at 
        levels consistent with agency operations in fiscal year 1986.
    (e) Sunset.--Subsections (a) through (d) of this section shall 
expire September 30, 1998.
    (f) Conforming Amendment.--Section 8 of House Concurrent Resolution 
64 (103d Congress), section 8 of House Concurrent Resolution 287 (102d 
Congress), section 7 of House Concurrent Resolution 121 (102d 
Congress), section 5 of House Concurrent Resolution 310 (101st 
Congress), section 6 of House Concurrent Resolution 106 (101st 
Congress), section 4 of House Concurrent Resolution 268 (100th 
Congress), and sections 7 and 8 of House Concurrent Resolution 93 
(100th Congress) are repealed.

SEC. 22. SOCIAL SECURITY FIRE WALL POINT OF ORDER IN THE SENATE.

    (a) Finding.--The Senate finds that the concurrent resolutions on 
the budget for fiscal years 1993 and 1994 have prohibited subsequent 
concurrent resolutions on the budget from decreasing the balances of 
the social security trust fund.
    (b) Application of Section 301(i).--Notwithstanding any other rule 
of the Senate, in the Senate, the point of order established under 
section 301(i) of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 shall apply to 
any concurrent resolution on the budget for any fiscal year (as 
reported and as amended), amendments thereto, or any conference report 
thereon.
    (c) Conforming Amendment.--Section 10(b) of House Concurrent 
Resolution 64 (103d Congress) and section 12(b) of House Concurrent 
Resolution 287 (102d Congress) are repealed.

SEC. 23. ENFORCING PAY-AS-YOU-GO.

    (a) Purpose.--The Senate declares that it is essential to--
            (1) ensure continued compliance with the deficit reduction 
        embodied in the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993; and
            (2) continue the pay-as-you-go enforcement system.
    (b) Finding.--The Senate finds that section 12(c) of the concurrent 
resolution on the budget for fiscal year 1994 created a point of order 
prohibiting legislation that would increase the deficit through fiscal 
year 2003.
    (c) Enforcement.--
            (1) In general.--It shall not be in order in the Senate to 
        consider any direct spending or receipts legislation (including 
        any such bill, joint resolution, amendment, motion, or 
        conference report) that would--
                    (A) increase the deficit for the first fiscal year 
                covered by the most recently adopted concurrent 
                resolution on the budget;
                    (B) increase the deficit for the period of the 5 
                fiscal years covered by the most recently adopted 
                concurrent resolution on the budget; or
                    (C) increase the deficit for the period of the 5 
                fiscal years following the first 5 years covered by the 
                most recently adopted concurrent resolution on the 
                budget;
        when taken individually (as a bill, joint resolution, 
        amendment, motion, or conference report, as the case may be), 
        and when taken together with all direct spending and receipts 
        legislation enacted after the date of enactment of the Omnibus 
        Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993.
            (2) Direct spending and receipts legislation.--For purposes 
        of this subsection, direct spending and receipts legislation 
        shall--
                    (A) exclude full funding of, and continuation of, 
                the deposit insurance guarantee commitment in effect on 
                the date of enactment of the Budget Enforcement Act of 
                1990;
                    (B) exclude emergency provisions so designated 
                under section 252(e) of the Balanced Budget and 
                Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985;
                    (C) include the estimated amount of savings in 
                direct spending programs applicable to that fiscal year 
                resulting from the prior year's sequestration under the 
                Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 
                1985, if any (except for any amounts sequestered as a 
                result of a net deficit increase in the fiscal year 
                immediately preceding the prior fiscal year); and
                    (D) except as otherwise provided in this 
                subsection, include all direct spending legislation as 
                that term is defined in section 250(c)(8) of the 
                Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 
                1985.
    (d) Waiver.--This section may be waived or suspended in the Senate 
only by the affirmative vote of three-fifths of the Members, duly 
chosen and sworn.
    (e) Appeals.--Appeals in the Senate from the decisions of the Chair 
relating to any provision of this section shall be limited to 1 hour, 
to be equally divided between, and controlled by, the appellant and the 
manager of the bill or joint resolution, as the case may be. An 
affirmative vote of three-fifths of the Members of the Senate, duly 
chosen and sworn, shall be required in the Senate to sustain an appeal 
of the ruling of the Chair on a point of order raised under this 
section.
    (f) Determination of Budget Levels.--For purposes of this section, 
the levels of new budget authority, outlays, and receipts for a fiscal 
year shall be determined on the basis of estimates made by the 
Committee on the Budget of the Senate.
    (g) Conforming Amendment.--Section 12(c) of House Concurrent 
Resolution 64 (103d Congress) is repealed.
    (h) Technical Correction.--Notwithstanding section 275(b) of the 
Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 (as amended 
by sections 13112(b) and 13208(b)(3) of the Budget Enforcement Act of 
1990), the second sentence of section 904(c) of the Congressional 
Budget Act of 1974 (except insofar as it relates to section 313 of that 
Act) and the final sentence of section 904(d) of that Act (except 
insofar as it relates to section 313 of that Act) shall continue to 
have effect as a rule of the Senate through (but no later than) 
September 30, 1998.
    (i) Sunset.--Subsections (a) through (f) of this section shall 
expire September 30, 1998.

        to sections 302(b) and 602(b) of the Congressional Budget Act 
        of 1974 to carry out this subsection.

SEC. 25. ENFORCEMENT PROCEDURES.

    (a) Discretionary Spending Limits.--
            (1) Definition.--As used in this section, for the 
        discretionary category, for the purposes of congressional 
        enforcement of this resolution, reduce the discretionary 
        spending limit in section 601 of the Congressional Budget Act 
        of 1974 by the following amounts--
                    (A) with respect to fiscal year 1996, 
                $4,200,000,000 in budget authority and $5,400,000,000 
                in outlays;
                    (B) with respect to fiscal year 1997, 
                $4,800,000,000 in budget authority and $5,600,000,000 
                in outlays; and
                    (C) with respect to fiscal year 1998, 
                $8,700,000,000 in budget authority and $5,300,000,000 
                in outlays.
            (2) Point of order in the senate.--(A) Except as provided 
        in subparagraph (B), it shall not be in order in the Senate to 
        consider any concurrent resolution on the budget for fiscal 
        years 1996, 1997, or 1998 (or amendment, motion, or conference 
        report on such a resolution) that would exceed any of the 
        discretionary spending limits in this section.
            (B) This subsection shall not apply if a declaration of war 
        by the Congress is in effect or if a joint resolution pursuant 
        to section 258 of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit 
        Control Act of 1985 has been enacted.
    (b) Waiver.--This section may be waived or suspended in the Senate 
only by the affirmative vote of three-fifths of the Members, duly 
chosen and sworn.
    (c) Appeals.--Appeals in the Senate from the decisions of the Chair 
relating to any provision of this section shall be limited to 1 hour, 
to be equally divided between, and controlled by, the appellant and the 
manager of the concurrent resolution, bill, or joint resolution, as the 
case may be. An affirmative vote of three-fifths of the Members of the 
Senate, duly chosen and sworn, shall be required in the Senate to 
sustain an appeal of the ruling of the Chair on a point of order raised 
under this section.
    (d) Determination of Budget Levels.--For purposes of this section, 
the levels of new budget authority, outlays, new entitlement authority, 
and revenues for a fiscal year shall be determined on the basis of 
estimates made by the Committee on the Budget of the Senate or the 
Committee on the Budget of the House of Representatives, as the case 
may be.

SEC. 26. EXERCISE OF RULE-MAKING POWERS.

    The Congress adopts the provisions of this title--
            (1) as an exercise of the rule-making power of the Senate 
        and the House of Representatives, respectively, and as such 
        they shall be considered as part of the rules of each House, or 
        of that House to which they specifically apply, and such rules 
        shall supersede other rules only to the extent that they are 
        inconsistent therewith; and
            (2) with full recognition of the constitutional right of 
        either House to change those rules (so far as they relate to 
        that House) at any time, in the same manner, and to the same 
        extent as in the case of any other rule of that House.

                TITLE III--SENSE OF CONGRESS PROVISIONS

SEC. 31. SENSE OF THE CONGRESS REGARDING THE BUDGETARY ACCOUNTING OF 
              HEALTH CARE REFORM.

    It is the sense of the Congress that--
            (1) the Congress should measure the costs and benefits of 
        all health care reform legislation against a uniform set of 
        economic and technical assumptions;
            (2) before enacting major changes in the health care 
        system, the Congress should have available to it reliable 
        estimates of the costs of competing plans prepared in a 
        comparable manner;
            (3) Congress should use Congressional Budget Office 
        estimates in accounting for the costs and benefits of health 
        care reform legislation; and
            (4) all financial transactions associated with Federal 
        health care reform legislation mandating employer payments for 
        health care coverage should be treated as part of the Federal 
        budget, including employer mandated payments to entities (which 
        should be treated as Government receipts) and payments made by 
        the entities pursuant to Federal law (which should be treated 
        as outlays), for all purposes under the Congressional Budget 
        Act of 1974 and the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit 
        Control Act of 1985.

SEC. 32. SENSE OF THE CONGRESS ON THE COSTS OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds that--
            (1) the Federal Government is solely responsible for 
        setting and enforcing national immigration policy;
            (2) the Federal Government has not adequately enforced 
        immigration laws;
            (3) this weak enforcement has imposed financial costs on 
        State and local governments;
            (4) States must incur costs for incarcerating undocumented 
        persons convicted of State and local crimes, educating 
        undocumented children, providing emergency medical services to 
        undocumented persons, and providing services incidental to 
        admission of refugees under the Refugee Admissions and 
        Resettlement Program; and
            (5) the Federal Government has an obligation to reimburse 
        State and local governments for costs resulting from the costs 
        described in paragraph (4).
    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that, in 
setting forth the budget authority and outlay amounts in this 
resolution, funding should be provided to reimburse State and local 
governments for the costs associated with--
            (1) elementary and secondary education for undocumented 
        children;
            (2) emergency medical assistance to undocumented persons;
            (3) incarceration and parole of criminal aliens; and
            (4) services incidental to admission of refugees under the 
        Refugee Admissions and Resettlement Program.

SEC. 33. SENSE OF THE CONGRESS REGARDING BASELINES.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds that--
            (1) the baseline budget shows the likely course of Federal 
        revenues and spending if policies remain unchanged;
            (2) baseline budgeting has given rise to the practice of 
        calculating policy changes from an inflated spending level; and
            (3) the baseline concept has been misused to portray 
        policies that would simply slow down the increase in spending 
        as spending reductions.
    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is 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.

SEC. 34. SENSE OF THE CONGRESS ON ECONOMIC ASSUMPTIONS.

    It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) economic assumptions play a significant role in 
        projecting Federal budget expenditures and revenues;
            (2) over the past decade and one-half, the economic 
        assumptions used by both the Office of Management and Budget 
        and by the Congressional Budget Office have been less accurate 
        than the Blue Chip projections;
            (3) future economic assumptions utilized for budget 
        projection purposes should use the latest Blue Chip projections 
        for economic assumptions and quoted public market rates when 
        relevant for projecting interest rates; and
            (4) in the event the Office of Management and Budget or the 
        Congressional Budget Office concludes that using the Blue Chip 
        indicators or market rates are inaccurate, they should present 
        their budget projections using both their own and Blue Chip and 
        market assumptions, along with an explanation of why they find 
        the latter to be unacceptable.

SEC. 35. SENSE OF THE CONGRESS REGARDING UNFUNDED FEDERAL MANDATES.

    It is the sense of the Congress that--
            (1) the Federal Government should not shift the costs of 
        administering Federal programs to State and local governments;
            (2) the Federal Government's share of entitlement programs 
        should not be capped or otherwise decreased without providing 
        States authority to amend their financial or programmatic 
        responsibilities to continue meeting the mandated service;
            (3) the Federal Government should not impose excessive 
        mandates and regulations that increase costs for the private 
        sector, hindering economic growth and employment opportunities; 
        and
            (4) Congress should develop a mechanism to ensure that 
        costs of mandates are considered during agencies' development 
        of regulations and congressional deliberations on legislation.

SEC. 36. CLOSING OF LOOPHOLES IN FOREIGN TAX PROVISIONS.

    (a) Findings.--The Senate finds that--
            (1) foreign-controlled corporations doing business in the 
        United States do not pay their fair share of taxes;
            (2) up to 72 percent of foreign-controlled corporations 
        doing business in the United States pay no Federal income tax;
            (3) the Internal Revenue Service has limited its own 
        ability to enforce Federal tax laws against foreign-controlled 
        corporations, to the detriment of domestic taxpayers;
            (4) the Internal Revenue Service has been using antiquated 
        accounting concepts to deal with sophisticated multinational 
        corporations;
            (5) billions of dollars of Federal revenues are lost 
        annually due to the inability of the Internal Revenue Service 
        to enforce the ``arm's length'' transaction rule--not even 
        counting the costs of bureaucracy and litigation; and
            (6) the Federal income tax laws encourage domestic 
        taxpayers to relocate abroad by granting them deferral of 
        United States taxes on income earned abroad.
    (b) Sense of the Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate that 
deficit reduction should be achieved, in part, by ending loopholes and 
enforcement breakdowns that now enable foreign-controlled corporations 
operating in the United States to pay no taxes and that subsidize the 
flight of domestic businesses and jobs out of the United States, 
including--
            (1) a more streamlined and efficient method of enforcing 
        Federal tax laws involving multinational corporations, 
        especially those based abroad, in particular, the use of a 
        formula approach by the Treasury Department where the ``arm's 
        length'' transaction rule does not work; and
            (2) a repeal of tax subsidies for domestic businesses that 
        move jobs to tax havens abroad and then ship their products 
        back into the United States.

SEC. 37. SENSE OF THE SENATE REGARDING TAX EXPENDITURES.

    (a) Findings.--The Senate finds that--
            (1) continuing budget deficits and the accumulation of 
        Federal debt have a detrimental impact on the Nation's long-
        term economic growth prospects;
            (2) in the absence of further fiscal restraint, the 
        Congressional Budget Office estimates that the Federal deficit 
        will increase to $365,000,000,000 by 2004 and the national debt 
        held by the public will grow to approximately 
        $6,000,000,000,000;
            (3) tax expenditures are growing significantly; and
            (4) in some instances, tax expenditures may have the same 
        effect as direct Federal spending and should be subject to the 
        same level of budgetary review.
    (b) Sense of the Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate that--
            (1) the Congress should consider targets for the growth in 
        tax expenditures similar to the targets for the growth of 
        mandatory spending;
            (2) such targets should be specified in any reconciliation 
        instructions included in a budget resolution; and
            (3) such targets should be enforceable separately from any 
        revenue targets included in the reconciliation instructions.

SEC. 38. SENSE OF THE CONGRESS REGARDING HEALTH SERVICE DELIVERY AND 
              WATER INFRASTRUCTURE IN THE INDIAN HEALTH SERVICE.

    It is the sense of the Congress that--
            (1) sufficient funding should be provided to the Indian 
        Health Service to ensure that Indian Health Service hospitals 
        and outpatient facilities in existence on the date of enactment 
        of this resolution, and Indian Health Service hospitals and 
        outpatient facilities scheduled to open during fiscal years 
        1994, 1995, and 1996, are fully staffed with the appropriate 
        number of health care professionals needed to meet the health 
        and medical needs of the American Indians and Alaska Natives 
        who depend on the Indian Health Service for health care; and
            (2) sufficient funding should be provided to the Indian 
        Health Service to ensure that the Indian Health Service is 
        capable of meeting basic public health and safety and 
        sanitation requirements on Indian lands through timely and 
        proper water infrastructure construction and upgrades.

SEC. 39. SENSE OF THE SENATE REGARDING THE NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND 
              SPACE ADMINISTRATION.

    It is the sense of the Senate that the budget authority and outlay 
figures for function 250 in this resolution do not assume any amounts 
for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration for any fiscal 
year from 1995 through 1999 in excess of the amounts proposed by the 
President for such fiscal year.

SEC. 40. SENSE OF THE SENATE REGARDING A BALANCED BUDGET AND THE 
              SPENDING REDUCTION COMMISSION.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds that--
            (1) The Congressional Budget Office has affirmed that 
        reductions in outlays of $34,000,000,000 per year below their 
        current baseline will result in a balanced budget by the year 
        2000.
            (2) The Spending Reduction Commission described in S. 1191 
        is a proven mechanism which will provide the necessary 
        reductions in Federal spending required to achieve a balanced 
        budget.
    (b) Sense of the Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate that 
Federal outlays should be reduced to reflect the aforementioned 
reductions from the Congressional Budget Office Baseline and that a 
Spending Reduction Commission should be created to propose annual 
spending cuts sufficient to reach the yearly spending reduction 
targets.

SEC. 41. MINIMUM ALLOCATION PROGRAM.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds that--
            (1) the minimum allocation program was established in 1982 
        to address inequities in the funding formula for Federal-aid 
        highways;
            (2) the minimum allocation program was designed to provide 
        the greatest degree of flexibility practicable to States that 
        receive funding under the formula referred to in paragraph (1) 
        and includes an exemption of the apportionments from the 
        obligation ceiling;
            (3) the minimum allocation program provides additional 
        flexibility by allowing a State a 4-year period during which 
        amounts apportioned to the State may be obligated;
            (4) the budget of the United States Government for fiscal 
        year 1995 submitted by the President to Congress proposes to 
        include minimum allocation apportionments under the obligation 
        ceiling and also proposes to limit the authority of States to 
        obligate apportionments under the minimum allocation program to 
        67 percent of the amount of the apportionments; and
            (5) States have planned transportation programs on the 
        basis of the provisions of the Intermodal Surface 
        Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991, and the amendments made 
        by the Act, relating to minimum allocation that confirmed core 
        commitments to exemption and flexibility.
    (b) Sense of the Congress.--It is the sense of the Congress that--
            (1) the minimum allocation program should remain exempt 
        from the obligation ceiling; and
            (2) the flexibility of the minimum allocation program 
        should be an enduring and critical component of the provision 
        of Federal assistance to States for Federal-aid highways.
    (c) Definitions.--As used in this section:
            (1) Federal-aid highways.--The term ``Federal-aid 
        highways'' has the meaning provided the term in section 101 of 
        title 23, United States Code.
            (2) Minimum allocation program.--The term ``minimum 
        allocation program'' means the program of allocation of funding 
        to States under section 157 of title 23, United States Code.
            (3) Obligation ceiling.--The term ``obligation ceiling'' 
        means the obligation ceiling under section 1002 of the 
        Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991.

SEC. 42. SENSE OF SENATE ON PAYMENT TO UNITED NATIONS OF UNITED STATES 
              ARREARAGES IN CONTRIBUTIONS FOR PEACEKEEPING ACTIVITIES.

    (a) Sense of Senate on Authority and Outlays.--It is the sense of 
the Senate that budget authority of $250,000,000 in fiscal year 1995 
and outlays of $170,000,000 in that fiscal year based upon funds 
accruing under subsection (b) should be allocated to the committee or 
committees of the Senate having jurisdiction over contributions to the 
United Nations for peacekeeping activities for the purposes of 
permitting the payment of arrearages of the United States in 
commitments in fiscal year 1994 for such contributions.
    (b) Sense of Senate on Funds.--It is the sense of the Senate that 
funds should be available for the budget authority of $250,000,000 and 
outlays of $170,000,000 referred to in subsection (a) as the result 
of--
            (1) the reimposition by the United States of charges on 
        foreign governments (other than Israel and Egypt) for the non-
        recurring costs of research, development, and production of 
        major defense equipment licensed for commercial export to such 
        governments; and
            (2) the recoupment by the United States from such 
        governments of administrative costs relating to foreign 
        military sales; and
            (3) the elimination of all financing assistance for such 
        sales (other than sales to Israel and Egypt) by the United 
        States.

SEC. 43. POLICY IN EASTERN AND CENTRAL EUROPE.

    It is the sense of the Senate that the assumptions underlying the 
levels of spending set forth in this resolution regarding the national 
defense (050) and international affairs (150) budget categories include 
an assumption that the United States will oppose through appropriate 
means attempts by the Russian Federation to intimidate, use military 
force or engage in economic coercion to establish a sphere of influence 
over the former republics of the Soviet Union, the Baltics, or Central 
and Eastern European nations, consistent with provisions contained in 
the Freedom Support Act and the Foreign Assistance Appropriations Act 
of 1994.

SEC. 44. SENSE OF THE SENATE REGARDING FEDERAL COURTHOUSE CONSTRUCTION.

    It is the sense of the Senate that--
            (1) the President's fiscal year 1995 budget includes a 
        request for 11 courthouses with a total estimated cost of over 
        $1,000,000,000;
            (2) while there may be significant need for new Federal 
        courthouses, the need for programs that prevent youth violence 
        before children get to courthouses is greater;
            (3) there should be a moratorium for fiscal year 1995 on 
        the construction of any new Federal courthouses which have not 
        already been specifically approved by Congress; and
            (4) priority should be given to programs for children and 
        families like Head Start and grants for maternal and infant 
        health care.

SEC. 45. SENSE OF THE CONGRESS REGARDING FEDERAL LAW ENFORCEMENT 
              PERSONNEL.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds that--
            (1) violent crimes reported to law enforcement continue to 
        increase with over 1,900,000 offenses being reported to law 
        enforcement each year;
            (2) drug dealing and the violent crime that accompanies it 
        are at the heart of the Nation's current crime crisis;
            (3) the problem of international drug trafficking is 
        increasing and foreign narcotics syndicates continue to make 
        the United States their primary target;
            (4) drug abuse among our Nation's young people, after years 
        of decline, has recently increased;
            (5) interstate criminal street gangs, which deal in illicit 
        narcotics and which are responsible for so much violent crime, 
        are spreading into cities throughout the Nation;
            (6) the Senate has passed a comprehensive anti-crime bill 
        which increases authorizations for Federal and State law 
        enforcement, increases penalties for violent crime, and 
        enhances Federal law enforcement's role in combating violent 
        street crime;
            (7) the President's proposed budget for fiscal year 1995 
        cuts the number of Drug Enforcement Administration, Federal 
        Bureau of Investigation, Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task 
        Force, and United States Attorney personnel;
            (8) absent the President's proposed budget cuts to Federal 
        law enforcement for fiscal year 1995, there are still 431 fewer 
        FBI agents and 301 fewer DEA agents today than there were in 
        1992 and, according to the President's budget, there will not 
        be a new FBI or DEA class until fiscal year 1996;
            (9) an adequate Federal law enforcement and Federal 
        prosecutor presence is critical to our Nation's effort to 
        respond to the crime and drug problem; and
            (10) President Clinton and Attorney General Reno have 
        publicly stated their support for enhanced efforts to fight 
        violent crime and drug trafficking.
    (b) Sense of the Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) current levels of agent strength within the DEA and FBI 
        and the current number of assistant United States Attorneys are 
        inadequate to meet the Federal Government's obligations to our 
        Nation's law abiding citizens; and
            (2) at a minimum, the agent strength for the FBI and DEA 
        should be restored to end-of-fiscal year 1992 levels, and the 
        number of Assistant United States Attorneys should not be 
        reduced.

SEC. 46. SENSE OF SENATE THAT TAXES NOT BE INCREASED BECAUSE TAXPAYERS 
              ARE MARRIED.

    (a) Findings.--The Senate finds that--
            (1) successful stable marriages are an essential part of a 
        successful stable society;
            (2) the breakdown of marriages has been one of the causes 
        of our unacceptable crime, illiteracy, school dropout, drug 
        abuse, and illegitimacy rates;
            (3) the Federal Government has a moral and ethical 
        obligation to help promote stable marriages or at least to not 
        undermine them financially;
            (4) the Internal Revenue Code currently contains a number 
        of provisions that financially penalize couples for becoming or 
        remaining married (so called ``marriage penalties'');
            (5) marriage penalties are in effect an annual Federal tax 
        on marriage licenses;
            (6) the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 added new 
        marriage penalties to the Internal Revenue Code and expanded 
        some existing marriage penalties;
            (7) marriage penalties financially discriminate against the 
        most fundamental and important unit in our society--the 
        family--and are especially harmful to our Nation's children; 
        and
            (8) there is no policy justification for the Federal 
        Government to financially penalize couples simply because they 
        choose to become or remain legally married.
    (b) Sense of the Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate that no 
taxpayer, regardless of age, sex, income, or number of dependents, 
should be required to pay more in Federal taxes under any provision of 
the Internal Revenue Code because that taxpayer is legally married.

SEC. 47. SENSE OF THE SENATE REGARDING CERTAIN DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 
              REDUCTIONS-IN-FORCE.

    It is the sense of the Senate that--
            (1) a reduction-in-force at the Department of Energy's 
        Kansas City Plant should not be carried out until--
                    (A) the National Defense Authorization Act for 
                fiscal year 1995 and the Energy and Water Development 
                Appropriations Act for fiscal year 1995 become law; or
                    (B) Congress has otherwise approved such an action.

SEC. 48. SENSE OF THE CONGRESS REGARDING MINERALS MANAGEMENT.

    It is the sense of the Congress that the budget authority and 
outlay totals set forth in this resolution assume sufficient funding 
under budget function 300 (Natural Resources and Environment) to 
ensure--
            (1) the ability of the Minerals Management Service to run 
        an effective Outer Continental Shelf resource evaluation 
        program that responds to increased interest on OCS areas, 
        including Alaska;
            (2) the ability of the United States Geological Survey to 
        continue to perform mineral resource surveys at the same levels 
        as in previous years; and
            (3) the continued effective functioning of all current 
        Bureau of Mines offices.

SEC. 49. SENSE OF SENATE REGARDING DIESEL FUEL DYEING REGULATIONS.

    (a) Findings.--The Senate finds that changes made to the collection 
point of the diesel fuel excise tax made as part of the Omnibus 
Reconciliation Act of 1993 and the Internal Revenue Service regulations 
implementing such changes have caused economic hardship, created market 
distortions, and added burdens to users and suppliers of diesel fuel 
by--
            (1) requiring businesses, primarily small entrepreneurs, to 
        invest thousands of dollars in equipment, or choose between 
        taxable and nontaxable users of diesel fuel, in order to comply 
        with the new rules;
            (2) imposing cumbersome notification requirements for 
        marketers and distributors of diesel fuel and home heating oil; 
        and
            (3) creating shortages of fuel due to storage tank 
        limitations.
    (b) Sense of the Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate that--
            (1) the Internal Revenue Service should make every effort 
        to ensure its regulations implementing the changes to the 
        collection point for the diesel fuel excise tax will minimize 
        the economic hardship, market distortions, unnecessary burdens, 
        and supply shortages;
            (2) such regulations should, to the extent possible, be 
        consistent with Environmental Protection Agency regulations 
        implementing the diesel desulfurization program; and
            (3) if the Internal Revenue Service lacks the authority to 
        issue revised regulations consistent with this resolution, then 
        Congress should consider legislation that will eliminate these 
        hardships, distortions, burdens, and shortages.

SEC. 50. SENSE OF THE SENATE REGARDING EQUITABLE DISTRIBUTION OF 
              REDUCTIONS IN DISCRETIONARY SPENDING.

    The Senate finds that since the President's fiscal year 1995 
defense budget request represents the tenth straight year of real cuts 
in defense and if the President's defense budget request is approved, 
since 1985 real defense spending will have been reduced by 45 percent 
by 1999; and President Clinton, during his State of the Union address 
on January 25, 1994, promised no further cuts in defense spending. Then 
it is the sense of the Senate that the annual levels of the (050) 
function should be reduced from the President's fiscal year 1995-1999 
budget request only after other annual levels of non-defense 
discretionary spending in the budget resolution have been reduced, 
fairly and appropriately.

SEC. 51. STAR WARS (BALLISTIC MISSILE DEFENSE).

    It is the sense of the Congress that given the Federal budget 
deficit, the real reductions in discretionary spending in this 
resolution, and the existence of many more worthy programs competing 
for this funding, spending for the Star Wars (Ballistic Missile 
Defense) must not exceed the fiscal year 1994 appropriated level.

SEC. 52. CONTROL GROWTH OF ENTITLEMENT OR MANDATORY SPENDING.

    It is the sense of the Senate that legislation should be enacted 
providing enforceable limits to control the growth of entitlement or 
mandatory spending.

SEC. 53. SENSE OF THE CONGRESS ON SHIFTING THE ALLOCATION OF ANTI-DRUG 
              FUNDS FROM INTERNATIONAL ANTI-DRUG PROGRAMS TO DRUG 
              TREATMENT AND PREVENTION PROGRAMS.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds that--
            (1) in 1991 over 11,000 hectares of opium production were 
        eradicated out of over 238,000 hectares under opium 
        cultivation;
            (2) in 1992 over 22,000 hectares of opium production were 
        eradicated, but the amount of hectares under opium cultivation 
        grew to over 255,000 hectares;
            (3) in the face of a successful opium eradication program 
        in 1992, the amount of land under active opium cultivation grew 
        by 6,700 hectares;
            (4) in 1991 over 6,500 hectares of coca leaf production 
        were eradicated out of over 212,700 hectares under cultivation;
            (5) in 1992 fewer than 5,300 hectares of coca leaf 
        production were eradicated, and the amount of hectares under 
        active coca leaf cultivation grew to almost 217,000;
            (6) the amount of land under active coca leaf production 
        grew by 5,300 hectares in 1992, and coca leaf production 
        increased by 1,200 metric tons over production in 1991;
            (7) the Drug Enforcement Administration has reported that 
        the purity of cocaine available in the United States has 
        increased since 1990, which demonstrates that adequate supplies 
        of cocaine continue to be produced and smuggled into the United 
        States;
            (8) the Drug Enforcement Administration has reported that 
        the price of cocaine available in the United States has 
        remained stable or declined since 1990, again demonstrating 
        that adequate supplies of cocaine are being produced and 
        smuggled into the United States;
            (9) many observers of national drug policy have come to 
        conclude that the efforts of the United States to reduce the 
        supply of drugs through international law enforcement and 
        training, economic development, and crop substitution programs 
        in foreign nations cannot succeed in reducing the supply of 
        drugs available in the United States;
            (10) recent studies demonstrate that drug treatment and 
        prevention programs have achieved notable success in reducing 
        drug use and associated criminality, including the commission 
        of violent crime by drug users;
            (11) the current national capacity to provide drug 
        treatment falls far short of being able to provide adequate 
        treatment to drug users who need and want treatment;
            (12) additional resources are needed to add drug treatment 
        capacity and to expand drug prevention programs.
    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of the Congress that
            (1) in setting forth the budget authority and outlay 
        amounts in this resolution, Congress should take note of the 
        failure of past spending to support international anti-drug 
        programs, including but not limited to those of the Agency for 
        International Development, the Bureau of International 
        Narcotics Matters and the Bureau of Politico-Military Affairs 
        of the Department of State, and the Drug Enforcement 
        Administration; and
            (2) the budget authority and outlay amounts in this 
        resolution should be reallocated from international anti-drug 
        programs to support successful drug treatment and prevention 
        programs that will curb the demand for illegal drugs; and
            (3) one-half of the budget authority and outlay amounts to 
        combat illegal drugs be expended to reduce the demand for 
        illegal drugs in the United States and one-half of such amounts 
        be expended to reduce the supply of such drugs in the United 
        States; and
            (4) no budget authority or outlay amounts reallocated in 
        accordance with the provisions of this section shall be taken 
        from budget authority and outlay amounts for foreign aid or 
        international development other than those accounts that 
        support international anti-drug programs.

SAC. 54. INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE COMPLIANCE INITIATIVE.

    (a) Adjustments.--For purposes of points of order under the 
Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974 and concurrent 
resolutions on the budget
            (1) the discretionary spending limits under section 
        601(a)(2) of that Act (and those limits as cumulatively 
        adjusted) for the current fiscal year and each outwear;
            (2) the allocations to the Committees on Appropriations 
        under sections 302(a) and 602(a) of that Act; and

        Government) and the appropriate budgetary aggregates in the 
        most recently agreed to concurrent resolution on the budget,
shall be adjusted to reflect the amounts of additional new budget 
authority or additional outlays (as compared with the amounts requested 
for the Internal Revenue Service in the President's Budget for fiscal 
year 1995) reported by the Committee on Appropriations in 
appropriations Acts (or by the committee of conference on such 
legislation) for the Internal Revenue Service compliance initiative 
activities in any fiscal year, but not to exceed in any fiscal year

    (b) Revised Limits, Allocations, Levels, and Aggregates.--Upon the 
reporting of legislation pursuant to subsection (a), and again upon the 
submission of a conference report on such legislation in either House 
(if a conference report is submitted), the Chairmen of the Committees 
on the Budget of the Senate and the House of Representatives shall file 
with their respective Houses appropriately revised
            (1) discretionary spending limits under section 601(a)(2) 
        of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 (and those limits as 
        cumulatively adjusted) for the current fiscal year and each 
        outwear;
            (2) allocations to the Committees on Appropriations under 
        sections 302(a) and 602(a) of that Act; and
            (3) levels for major functional category 800 (General 
        Government) and the appropriate budgetary aggregates in the

to carry out this subsection. These revised discretionary spending 
limits, allocations, functional levels, and aggregates shall be 
considered for purposes of congressional enforcement under that Act as 
the discretionary spending limits, allocations, functional levels, and 
aggregates.
    (c) Reporting Revised Allocations.--The Committees on 
Appropriations of the Senate and the House of Representatives may 
report appropriately revised allocations pursuant to sections 302(b) 
and 602(b) of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 to carry out this 
section.
    (d) Contingencies.--This section shall not apply to any additional 
new budget authority or additional outlays unless
            (1) in the case of such budget authority or outlays for any 
        fiscal year after fiscal year 1995, the Secretary of the 
        Treasury certifies
                    (A) to the Chairmen of the Committees on the Budget 
                of the Senate and the House of Representatives, and
                    (B) to the Chairmen of the Committee on Finance of 
                the Senate and the Committee on Ways and Means of the 
                House of Representatives,
        that there has been enacted into law a Taxpayer Bill of Rights 
        2 which is substantially similar to that contained in the 
        conference report to H.R. 11, 102d Congress, 2d Session;
            (2) the Secretary of the Treasury certifies to the chairmen 
        described in paragraph (1)(A) that the Internal Revenue Service 
        will initiate and implement an educational program with respect 
        to the Taxpayer Bill of Rights 1 and 2 for any new employees 
        hired pursuant to such budget authority or outlays;
            (3) the Director of the Congressional Budget Office 
        certifies to the chairmen described in paragraph (1)(A) that

            (4) any funds made available pursuant to such budget 
        authority or outlays are available only for the purpose of 
        carrying out Internal Revenue Service compliance initiative 
        activities.
    (e) Sunset.--This section shall expire September 30, 1998.

SAC. 55. SENSE OF THE SENATE ON CONTROLLING NON-SOCIAL SECURITY 
              MANDATORY SPENDING.

    It is the sense of the Senate that the Congress should
            (1) enact, after health care reform legislation is enacted, 
        annual caps on mandatory spending that take effect beginning in 
        fiscal year 1996;
            (2) include within such caps all mandatory spending 
        programs except Social Security, deposit insurance and net 
        interest;
            (3) provide that the caps shall be set so that programs 
        providing benefits to individuals may grow for inflation, 
        changes in the numbers of beneficiaries, and an additional 
        growth allowance of
                    (A) 4 percent in 1996,
                    (B) 3.5 percent in 1997,
                    (C) 3 percent in 1998, and
                    (D) 2 percent in 1999 and thereafter;
            (4) provide that the caps shall be adjusted annually in the 
        President's budget for changes in inflation and the number of 
        beneficiaries in mandatory spending programs since the caps 
        were enacted (excluding any changes due to legislation); and
            (5) provide that if total mandatory spending exceeds the 
        formula in subsection (3), the caps shall be enforced by
                    ((A) requiring the President's budget to comply 
                with the caps, including submission of proposals to 
                reduce mandatory spending to stay within the caps if a 
                breach is expected under current law;
                    (B) super majority points-of-order prohibiting the 
                consideration of future budget resolutions or 
                legislation that would breach the caps; and
                    (C) at the conclusion of each session of Congress, 
                a sequestration procedure that would reduce mandatory 
                spending by the amount of any breach of the cap in the 
                upcoming year by reducing those programs growing faster 
                than inflation, beneficiary changes, and the additional 
                growth allowance for that year.
            (6) provides for a period of not less than 60 days before 
        such sequestration for committees of the House and the Senate 
        with jurisdiction over mandatory programs which are determined 
        to be exceeding these allowable spending levels to report 
        legislation that reduces direct spending in their jurisdiction 
        by an amount sufficient to eliminate the excess spending;
            (7) ensures that reductions in Federal spending for 
        mandatory programs required by such legislation is not to be 
        achieved by shifting costs to State and local governments.
            Attest:

                                                             Secretary.
