Eliminates availability of the same amount for incremental tenant-based assistance for eligible families currently assisted under the Disaster Voucher Program and the Disaster Housing Assistance Program for Hurricanes Ike and Gustav on the condition that such vouchers will not be re-issued when families leave the program. 
(Sec. 1808) Replaces a specified rescission of funds for the housing certificate fund under public and Indian housing with continued authority for the use of the unobligated balances of certain assisted housing and project-based rental assistance appropriations for renewal of (or amendments to) section 8 project-based contracts and for performance-based contract administrators. 
(Sec. 1809) Increases appropriations to HUD for the Public Housing Operating Fund.

Division G: Other Matters
 - (Sec. 3001) Rescinds the applicable percentage of budget authority provided (or obligation limit imposed) for FY2013 for any discretionary account in divisions A through E of this Act. 
Specifies these applicable percentages to be:
 
 
2.513% in divisions A and E for budget authority in the nonsecurity category (as defined in the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985) (Gramm-Rudman-Hollings Act), and 1.877% in division B; and
 
 0.1% for budget authority in the security category (as defined in the Act).
 
 
Excludes from such rescission any amounts designated by Congress for Overseas Contingency Operations/Global War (OCO/GWOT) on Terrorism or for disaster relief.
 
Requires the Director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to report to the congressional appropriations committees within 30 days after enactment of this Act on the account and amount of each such rescission.
 
(Sec. 3002) Declares that, if on or after enactment of this Act a sequestration order issued by the President pursuant to the Gramm-Rudman-Hollings Act is in effect, the reductions in each discretionary account under the order: (1) apply to the amounts provided in this Act, and (2) are in addition to any reductions required by that Act.
 
(Sec. 3003) Requires the head of any executive branch department, agency, board, commission, or office funded by this or any other appropriations Act to report annually to the Inspector General (IG) (or senior ethics official for any federal entity without an IG) regarding the costs and contracting procedures related to each conference held by any such entity during FY2013 for which the cost to the federal government was more than $100,000.
 
Requires the head of any federal entity, within 15 days of any conference it held for which the cost was over $20,000, to notify the IG or the senior ethics official of the date, location, and number of employees attending such conference.
 
Prohibits the use of federal grants or contracts by an executive branch agency to defray the costs of such a conference not directly and programmatically related to the purpose for which the grant or contract was awarded, such as a conference held in connection with planning, training, assessment, review, or other routine purposes related to a project funded by the grant or contract.
 
Prohibits the use of federal funds for travel and conference activities that are not in compliance with OMB Memorandum M-12-12 dated May 11, 2012.
 
(Sec. 3004) Requires the OMB Director to increase the applicable percentage for any category by the amount necessary to eliminate any excessive amount in that category if, for FY2013, the amount of new budget authority provided in appropriation Acts exceeds the discretionary spending limits set forth in the Gramm-Rudman-Hollings Act because of estimating differences with the Congressional Budget Office (CBO).
 
Rescinds the applicable percentage of:
 
 
 the budget authority provided (or obligation limit imposed) for FY2013 for any discretionary account in divisions A through F of this Act,
 
 the budget authority provided in any advance appropriation for FY2013 for any discretionary account in any prior fiscal year appropriation Act, and
 
 the contract authority provided in FY2013 for any program subject to limitation incorporated or otherwise contained in divisions A through F of this Act.
 
 
Makes these applicable percentages 0% for budget authority in both the nonsecurity and security categories (thus exempting budget authority in these categories from rescission).
 
Excludes from such rescission:
 
 
 amounts designated by Congress for OCO/GWOT or for disaster relief; or
 
 the amount made available by division F of this Act for a specified limitation on administrative expenses of the Social Security Administration for continuing disability reviews under titles II (Old Age, Survivors and Disability Insurance) (OASDI) and XVI (Supplemental Security Income) (SSI) of the Social Security Act and for the cost associated with conducting eligibility redeterminations.
 
 
Requires the Director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to report to the congressional appropriations committees within 30 days after enactment of this Act on the account and amount of each such rescission.
