9 SEC. 506. POLICY STATEMENT ON MEDICARE. 

10 (a) FINDINGS.—The House finds the following: 

11 (1) More than 50 million Americans depend on 

12 Medicare for their health security. 

13 (2) The Medicare Trustees Report has repeat14 edly recommended that Medicare’s long-term finan15 cial challenges be addressed soon. Each year without 

16 reform, the financial condition of Medicare becomes 

17 more precarious and the threat to those in and near 

18 retirement becomes more pronounced. According to 

19 the Congressional Budget Office— 

20 (A) the Hospital Insurance Trust Fund 

21 will be exhausted in 2022 and unable to pay 

22 scheduled benefits; and 

23 (B) Medicare spending is growing faster 

24 than the economy and Medicare outlays are 

25 currently rising at a rate of 6.3 percent per

1 year, and under the Congressional Budget Of2 fice’s alternative fiscal scenario, direct spending 

3 on Medicare is projected to reach 7 percent of 

4 GDP by 2035 and 14 percent of GDP by 2085. 

5 (3) Failing to address this problem will leave 

6 millions of American seniors without adequate health 

7 security and younger generations burdened with 

8 enormous debt to pay for spending levels that cannot 

9 be sustained. 

10 (b) POLICY ON MEDICARE REFORM.—It is the policy 

11 of this resolution to protect those in and near retirement 

12 from any disruptions to their Medicare benefits and offer 

13 future beneficiaries the same health care options available 

14 to Members of Congress. 

15 (c) ASSUMPTIONS.—This resolution assumes reform 

16 of the Medicare program such that: 

17 (1) Current Medicare benefits are preserved for 

18 those in and near retirement, without changes. 

19 (2) For future generations, when they reach eli20 gibility, Medicare is reformed to provide a premium 

21 support payment and a selection of guaranteed 

22 health coverage options from which recipients can 

23 choose a plan that best suits their needs.

1 (3) Medicare will provide additional assistance 

2 for lower-income beneficiaries and those with greater 

3 health risks.

6 over the long term. 

7 SEC. 507. POLICY STATEMENT ON DEFICIT REDUCTION 

8 THROUGH THE CANCELLATION OF UNOBLI9 GATED BALANCES. 

10 (a) FINDINGS.—The House finds the following: 

11 (1) According to the Office of Management and 

12 Budget, Federal agencies will hold $698 billion in 

13 unobligated balances at the close of fiscal year 2013. 

14 (2) These funds represent direct and discre15 tionary spending made available by Congress that 

16 remain available for expenditure beyond the fiscal 

17 year for which they are provided. 

18 (3) In some cases, agencies are granted funding 

19 and it remains available for obligation indefinitely. 

20 (4) The Congressional Budget and Impound21 ment Control Act of 1974 requires the Office of 

22 Management and Budget to make funds available to 

23 agencies for obligation and prohibits the Administra24 tion from withholding or cancelling unobligated 

25 funds unless approved by an act of Congress.

•HCON 113 IH 

1 (5) Greater congressional oversight is required 

2 to review and identify potential savings from 

3 unneeded balances of funds. 

4 (b) POLICY ON DEFICIT REDUCTION THROUGH THE

5 CANCELLATION OF UNOBLIGATED BALANCES.—Congres6 sional committees shall through their oversight activities 

7 identify and achieve savings through the cancellation or 

8 rescission of unobligated balances that neither abrogate 

9 contractual obligations of the Federal Government nor re10 duce or disrupt Federal commitments under programs 

11 such as Social Security, veterans’ affairs, national secu12 rity, and Treasury authority to finance the national debt. 

13 (c) DEFICIT REDUCTION.—Congress, with the assist14 ance of the Government Accountability Office, the Inspec15 tors General, and other appropriate agencies should make 

16 it a high priority to review unobligated balances and iden17 tify savings for deficit reduction. 

18 SEC. 508. POLICY STATEMENT ON BLOCK GRANTING MED19 ICAID. 

20 It is the policy of this resolution that Medicaid and 

21 the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) should 

22 be block granted to the States by enacting the State 

23 Health Flexibility Act of 2012 (H.R. 4160) as introduced 

24 on March 7, 2012.
