‘‘(1) IN GENERAL.—After the reporting of a bill 
or joint resolution or the submission of a conference 
report thereon that provides budget authority for 
any emergency as identified pursuant to subsection 
(d) that is not covered by subsection (c)— 
‘‘(A) the chairman of the Committee on 
the Budget of the House of Representatives or 
the Senate shall determine and certify, pursu-

by subsection (c)) in the 5 fiscal years preceding the 
current year; and 
‘‘(2) the average of the levels of outlays for 
emergencies in the 5 fiscal years preceding the cur-

such operation) and the report accompanying that bill or 
joint resolution, pursuant to subsection (d), identifies any 
provision that increases outlays or provides budget author-
ity (and the outlays flowing therefrom) for such emer-
gency, the enactment of which would cause the total

of an exemption from section 251 of the Balanced 
Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 
of all or any part of the provisions that provide 
budget authority (and the outlays flowing therefrom) 
for such emergency if the committee determines, 
pursuant to the guidelines referred to in section 203 
of the Emergency Spending Control Act of 2005, 
that such budget authority is for an emergency with-
in the meaning of section 3(11).

joint resolution, amendment, motion, or conference 
report. 
‘‘(d) COMMITTEE NOTIFICATION
OF EMERGENCY 
LEGISLATION.—Whenever the Committee on Appropria-
tions or any other committee of either House (including 
a committee of conference) reports any bill or joint resolu-
tion that provides budget authority for any emergency, the 
report accompanying that bill or joint resolution (or the 
joint explanatory statement of managers in the case of a 
conference report on any such bill or joint resolution) shall 
identify all provisions that provide budget authority and 
the outlays flowing therefrom for such emergency and in-
clude a statement of the reasons why such budget author-
