On the other hand. if the savings assumed by the resolution are not made through reconciliation. as the Senate has proposed. and are not made voluntarily. as the House assumes. important national budget priorities will simply be crowded out by the spending necessary to make up for the lost savings. If none of the savings assumed by reconciliation occur. as much as $3.6 billion of the $10.7 billion in outlays contained in the agreedupon budget for important supplemental appropriations priorities will have to be spent for the savings instead. Some of the priorities which would be simply crowded out include supplemental funding for food stamps. the space program. refugee assistance. student assistance. strategic stockpile acquisitions. the Economic Development Administration. and countercyclical revenuesharing programs. This is not some horrors list. designed to frighten and alarm. It is the actual list of major "controllable" supplemental appropriation requests which will have to bear the brunt of spending for the lost savings.
