This Act may be cited as the ‘‘Honest Balanced
Budget Act of 1999’’.

Congress finds the following:
(1) The social security system runs an annual
surplus that is invested in Government bonds. The
Treasury thus borrows the surplus and spends these
monies on programs unrelated to social security.
(2) In fact, when the projected annual social se-
curity trust fund surplus is removed from the base-
line calculations through 2004, a cumulative 5-year
deficit is added to the national debt.
(3) The Congressional Budget Office projects
that the annual deficit will increase dramatically
over the 5-year budget cycle and, further, the fic-
tional social security trust fund balance will also rise
during this period.
SEC. 3. SOCIAL SECURITY TRUST FUND PROTECTION.
The receipts and disbursements of the social security
trust funds included in the gross Federal debt shall not
be—
(1) included in the Federal budget baseline for
any fiscal year; and
(2) counted as new budget authority, outlays,
receipts, or deficit or surplus for purposes of—
(A) offsetting any tax decrease; and
(B) offsetting any spending increase.
