See Census Project comparison of House and Senate Census Bureau marks. 2The House mark is based on an ESA reported level of $96, which is $4.3 million below the request, and assumes $3.8 million goes to "ESA Policy Support." Similarly, the Senate level is based on a ESA reported level of $100.3 million. 3The BTS is funded through the Highway Trust Fund with levels determined by the authorizing committees. The Senate level reported here is from S. 1813, The Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21), p. 1481. The Senate bill contains the same level for FY12. The House level is from H.R. 7, The American Energy and Infrastructure Jobs Act of 2012, p. 669. The House bill has the same level through FY16. The conference level of $26 million for FY13 and FY14 is reported here is MAP-21 Conference Report to Accompany H.R. 4348 (top of p. 470.) 45/11: In addition to cutting $24 million from Census on the House floor, the House voted to eliminate the American Community Survey. See House votes to eliminate American Community Survey 5According to a message to the Friends of NCHS, the Senate bill "provides NCHS $35 million from the Prevention and Public Health Fund established by the Affordable Care Act (ACA). This brings the agency’s total funding to $173.7 million." 6According to the March 25 COSSA Washington Update, the Census Bureau received an additional $18 million from the Census Working Capital Fund. If one includes the WCF funds, the FY13 Census budget is $859 million. Btw, the Census Bureau has an additional $28,470 million in mandatory funding for Survey of Program Dynamics and State Children's Health Insurance Program. NASS received an anomaly with $62.5 million designated to complete the Census of Agriculture. 7Since official figures are not yet available, these values are based on my best estimates. The are calculated using the FY12 levels or the anomaly levels in the in the final CR bill, then substracting the rescissions (2.513% for Ag, 1.877% for CJS, 0.189% for Labor/HHS) and the sequrestration cut of 5.1%. The entries forBJS, NCSES, NCHS, ORES and SOI are especially tentative because it was their umbrella organizations that were subject to across-the-board cuts and so it is possible the cuts of these organizations will differ from the 5.1%. 8SOI underwent a realignment within its parent organization RAS in FY12 that included a transfer of 24 FTE’s, which accounts for a large part of the decrease between FY12 and FY13.
4/26: NCHS budget number from this CDC document, p. 4. 3/28: Agencies are still determining their final FY13 budget so these values are based on our best estimates for the effect of sequrestration and rescissions. The values for BJS and Census were reported in March 25 COSSA Washington Update. BEA, ERS and NASS all received anomalies in the final CR bill, albeit a lower value for ERS! In addition to sequestration, the bill included rescissions: 2.513% for Ag, 1.877% for CJS, 0.189% for Labor/HHS. 3/4: Sequestration cuts: 5.1% from FY12 levels. These levels are likely to be the final levels. 9/18: "White House document reports 8.2% sequestration cuts for NSF, NIH, and statistical agencies," 9/18 ASA Community blog entry. 8/15: Congress agrees in principal to 6 month continuing resolution, putting off FY13 decisions most likely until after the election: Congress Ready to Extend Budget at Current Levels, Science magazine piece, 8/10/12. 7/9: Final FY13 levels for BTS from MAP-21 Conference Report to Accompany H.R. 4348 (top of p. 470.) 6/15: Senate Labor/HHS Report Language 6/12: Senate Summary: Fiscal Year 2013 Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education, and Related Agencies Appropriations Bill 6/12: House Ag subcommittee bill 5/11: House CJS floor action 5/7 Business Week and COSSA Washington Update stories linked below (in "See also") 4/30:Senate E&W Report, Senate Ag/FDA bill, 4/26: House CJS Report, Summary: Senate FY13 Agriculture Appropriations Bill 4/24: Senate CJS bill; Senate E&W bill summary 4/18: House CJS bill and summary 4/17: House E&W bill, p. 23; Senate CJS subcommittee mark-up 4/16: House and Senate mark-up are scheduled to begin week of April 16 with Senate doing CJS & Transportation/HUD and House doing E&W on 4/18 and CJS on 4/19.
