The compromise makes no reduction in national defense outlays. but transfers $300 million from the surplus In the resolution the House rejected. $100 million of these transferred outlays going to function 400. transportation. and $200 million going to function 600. income security. The second component of the compromise is to add sufficient funds to cover the latest administration estimates of disaster assistance for Mount St. Helens. the Cuban refugee influx. the Miami situation. and Presidentially declared disasters. If we had not added these funds. there simply would not have been enough money in the 1980 budget to meet these disaster situations. Third. the compromise extends the deadline for reconciliation savings on the part of Senate committees to June 25 so that committees will have enough time to make their reports to the Senate. and the Senate will have enough time to act on those reports before the July recess.
