TITLE VI—SENSE OF THE HOUSE 
PROVISIONS 
SEC. 601. SENSE OF THE HOUSE ON A RESPONSIBLE DEF-
ICIT REDUCTION PLAN MUST CONSIDER ALL 
PROGRAMS, INCLUDING THOSE AT THE PEN-
TAGON AND THE OTHER NATIONAL SECU-
RITY AGENCIES. 
It is the sense of the House that the Nation’s debt 
is an immense security threat to our country, just as Ad-
miral Mullen, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, has 
stated; the Government Accountability Office has recently 
issued a report documenting billions of dollars of waste 
and duplication at Government agencies, including the De-
partment of Defense, and the Department of Defense has 
never passed a clean audit; the bipartisan National Com-
mission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform and the bi-
partisan Rivlin-Domenici Debt Reduction Task Force 
were correct in concluding that all programs, including na-
tional security, should be ‘‘on the table’’ as part of a def-
icit reduction plan; and any budget plan serious about re-

ducing the deficit must follow this precept to consider all 
programs, including national security programs, the larg-
est segment of discretionary spending. 
SEC. 602. SENSE OF THE HOUSE REGARDING THE IMPOR-
TANCE OF CHILD SUPPORT ENFORCEMENT. 
It is the sense of the House that— 
(1) additional legislative action is needed to en-
sure that States have the necessary resources to col-
lect all child support that is owed to families and 
allow them to pass 100 percent of support on to 
families without financial penalty; and 
(2) when 100 percent of child support payments 
are passed to the child, rather than administrative 
expenses, program integrity is improved and child 
support participation increases.

grams that provide benefits specifically to poor and

formation on how well these programs are working,
