Speech #1020191879

The bill provides a $19 million increase for the breast and cervical cancer screening program. As I mentioned earlier. the committee was forced to reduce some programs below their 1992 level in order to provide increases for others within a very limited budget ceiling. Programs that are funded below 1992 levels include low income home energy assistance. refugee and entrant assistance. community services block grant. and health professions tr.-ning. In addition. the bill rduces the 1993 appropriation for State legalization Impact assistance by $562 million and Includes language converting Medicare survey and certification activities to a feefinanced system. for a savings of $289 million. Throughout the bill. the committee has taken a very tough line on Federal salaries and expenses. reducing these expenditures $253 million below the administrations request.
