Authorization vs. Appropriation
5
Constitutionally mandated Provides budget authority
Permission to draw funds from US Treasury
One-year budget focus Limited language Defense is only 1 of 12 Bills
SAC-D and HAC-D (D = Defense)
Statutorily authorized Provides permission & direction on
how to spend funds Policy oriented Fiscal Year focus Extensive language
Authorization Appropriation
Example: Mom, Can I go to the movies? “Yes, I approve (authorize) you to go, but you cannot see “Zombie Blood Bath” (Prohibitive content)
Authorizers: HASC & SASC(House Armed Services Committee & Senate Armed Services Committee)
Example: Dad, Can I have money to go to the movies? “Yes, here is $20 (appropriated).” (Cannot spend the $20 to see “Zombie Blood Bath” due to Prohibitive Content)Appropriators: HAC & SAC(House Appropriations Committee & Senate Appropriations Committee)

How Big is the DoD Budget?
![Page 10: Julie Hogan SAF/AQPM 9 Jul 13](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051700/568161a3550346895dd15b05/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Some Issues
How big should the defense budget be? Percent of gross domestic product? (currently ~4%) Percent of the budget? (currently ~20%)
How do we balance the budget? Raise taxes? Decrease spending?
Where should we cut defense? Cancel programs? Close bases? Reduce personnel/benefits?
![Page 11: Julie Hogan SAF/AQPM 9 Jul 13](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051700/568161a3550346895dd15b05/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Budget Control Act
Enacted due to debt ceiling crisis Reduces spending by $1.2 trillion over 10 years (2011-2021) Discretionary spending is capped each year for next decade
11
Created “super committee” to make recommendations (tax increases & spending cuts) – failed
As a result, there is an across the board cut to eliminate excess spending (sequester)

Sequestration
Theory: “Meat-ax” approach to budget-cutting whose consequences were so dire Congress would not let it occur
Reality: It happened! Enacted 1 March 2013 (after extension) Drove $42.7B cut to DoD budget in FY13

Looking Ahead
One time opportunity to move money between accounts Still waiting for Congress to approve the DoD request
If Congress can’t agree on budget this year, we will sequester again
Continue to trade modernization for readiness
