budget. she also runs the fix the debt campaign. she has been one of the most tireless -- maybe the most tireless and persistent people favoring responsible fiscal policy in the united states for the last kid of decades and has been exemplary and how she has found many different vehicles through which to get the word out, including through a great deal of writing, a great deal of testimony with congress, coalition building, working with younger people whose future is perhaps most at stake in many of these conversations, and it has just been an exemplary sort of scholar activist on these very important issues. i'm thrilled to have her. this one more time because hillary clinton has not yet been elected president -- i hope she will be soon. that's my own personal view, but until she is, if she is, alice in my mind remains the most a congresswoman in american political life in our history, and i'm not exaggerating. she's founding director of the congressional budget office, head of the office of

and budget. we will discuss the proposals regarding the senate rules and procedures. add the direct fiscal studies for the syndrome of service at george mason university. he's a political scientist at the university of maryland baltimore county and has been a professor since 1990 as an analyst at the congressional budget office. the research is on the priority setting and transparency in the budgeting and he's going to discuss the budget concepts commission. the senior adviser for the committee of the budget previously served on the staff of the deficit reduction commission and before that, he spent many years as a budget aide first for congressman charlie stenholm and then the house majority leader steny hoyer. then he will talk about setting up and enforcing the fiscal goals. it's hard to believe that i started my career here in the senate budget committee 33 years ago. tim really does fly. first i would like to congratulate the staff at the committee for the responsible federal budget for turn

right now let's say the budget, the balanced budget piece that we have, if we took the balanced budget piece that we put out earlier this year and actually took ten years, chipped away at the deficit and in ten years chipped away at it and got back to a balance where we had no deficit that year, it was balanced, then let's say the next year we actually had a $50 billion surplus. it would be a pretty good surplus. so we chip away in ten years, get to balance. the next year we have a $50 billion surplus. mr. president, do you know how long it would take us to pay off our debt if we had a $50 billion surplus. if we had a $50 billion surplus every year for 460 years in a row, we would pay off our debt. 460 years in a row of $ 50 billion surpluses, and we can get on top of this. everyone says that's unreasonable, and i would say it's certainly unreasonable if we don't change the way we do process. it just continues to get worse. there are some basic things we can do. we can do budgeting every two years. and people may say how does that solve anything. that's predictability and planning. it

, the mayor's budget book, that blue budget book. in this particular page is all of the uses of funds for general fund departments, and the amount that is budgeted for facilities maintenance is 0.2%. a very very tiny amount of the overall budget that we are talking about. another reason why i don't think it gets much attention. one of the things we learned that i had no knowledge of, had not paid any attention to before serving on the jury was the distinction between the enterprise funds and general fund between departments. enterprise get to decide how to spend it whereas general fund departments acquire monies doled out to them from the departments. the consequence is that enterprise departments spend tend times more than their general fund departments. talking to that, when we talked to general fund departments like the airport, we say how far is your maintenance backlog? zero. they have no maintenance backlog. general fund accounts, how big is your backlog of deferred maintenance. you get various answers. i put one together, a ta

during that crisis we had budget cuts. and we are aware that maintenance, you know, it is sort of the, that maintenance is not as sexy and means it's often on the cutting board early. we recognize sometimes that's appropriate, but it's something that we've been working to avoid and by using other sources as much as we can we think we have been successful. but you can also see in the last 3 years we have actually surpassed what we recommend in the capital plan. a lot of that is add vac. we have more detail which is combining the two but this is actually combining the budget. facilities routine maintenance is steadily. it's really an operating cost. we are going to hold onto this amount because we don't want to see it go to zero. but it's been a concerted policy to say, well increase it by 5% when we can, but for the most part we are going to hold the line on it and we are going to encourage those cost to come out through other programs, the rental rate program that the facilities is using and other operating cost. >> facili

turning federal budget budgeting and responsible budgeting into an important bipartisan issue.rtisan manner. they have gone above and beyond terms of reaching out and gathering viewpoints from both sides of the aisle. we don't see enough of that right now so it's highly commendable. i entirely agree with the goals the chairman set out and we certainly need to make resolutions easier to pass and harder to ignore. we need to modernize budget concepts and address long-term debt and add predictability to appropriations. i appreciate the opportunity today to comment on the very specific proposals. first the chairman mentioned voter reform. this has occurred because there is a time limit on consideration for budget resolutions but even after the time expires, senators can can continue to offer as many amendments as they want and they are able to force votes. it wasn't that way at the beginning, but somewhere along the way people figured out that this was an easy way to force political votes on a broad range of issues and it's so out-of-control now that they end up being dozens, somet

last week, the nonpartisan congressional budget office issued its annual budget and economic outlookeport and hardly anyone paid heed. you write, it is no secret why deficits are shunned. takeaway politics, raising subsidiesting popular and handouts is unfriendly. people deplore deficits but they don't support the programs that create the deficits. mr. samuelson: angry with most of that. we basically have a system that is built on the presumption of economic growth, that the economy will throw off enough additional income every year so that people can satisfy both their personal wants and public wants through the government. one of the problems of a slowing economy over the last 15-20 years is that you do not have the flood of increased income every year that had been anticipated. son of the deficits are fundamentally a reflection of the fact that the public does not want to be taxed more but it wants to receive more benefits, and the system basically gets them what they want. if we have faster economic growth, we can pay for some of these programs without cutting other programs or r

we don't have the budget. we end up putting these huge spending bills altogether and 10 weeks at a time? that's not how you put stability into the economy. and a huge missing piece is that these funding bills, the appropriations, only look at a very small sliver of our budget. they don't look at our largest programs, our retirement programs, our health care programs, all of which we need have oversight to address the funding shortfalls that our trusties are predicting. so these blood, sweat and tears to not get a real budget in place is only a small sliver of budget the bottom line, our budget process us broken. we need a significant overhaul. and in many ways t reflective of the dysfunction we're seeing in washington where we can't get the basic ten nantz of governing underway. host: so currently we have $19 trillion debt. how do we get sneer what are the biggest drivers of such big debt number? guest: that's right. our debt and that's our total debt. our debt is a share of the economy. it's. 5% of g.d.p. tha

not only is it an issue of budget, but certainty knowing you have budget levels not just for a year but for at least five years. that's another aspect we have to work with. i will welcome the witnesses' thoughts and suggestions as we move forward. thank you very much, mr. chairman. >> thank you, senator mccain and ranking member reid and distinguished members of the committee to appear before you today to discuss our army. thank you for your consistent support and commitment to our army soldiers, civilians and families. the army as you know is manned, trained, equipped and well led as the foundation of the joint force in order to deter and if deterrence fails, to fight, defeat a wide range of state, nonstate actors. today, tomorrow and deep into the future. although there's many challenges as outlined below, the most important of which is consistent, sustained and predictable funding over time. i still want to be clear, the united states army is america's combat force of decision and we are more capable, better trained, better equipped, better led and more lethal than any other ground f

on a government budget. but here we are again. that's because within two months of the agreement that republicans and democrats and the president agreed to, republicans in the house said, no deal. we don't want this deal anymore. so that's why we're here today nine days from watching again as republicans come close to shutting down government. >> that no deal, what were the specifics late out because of that? >> the agreement that was reached last december was that we would reach an agreement on the numbers for the budget. and then we would fill in the numbers for each different department. republicans in the house said, we don't like the number that we agreed to two months ago anymore. we want to change it. there was mostly house republicans. senate republicans were saying, no, we got our agreement on the budget. let's not get in the way. let's do our budget and get done. republicans in the house said, no. so that's where we are today. so now since very little has been done in this year's congressional sess

in that budget. so shelter, transportation, food, health, all those things. then you can expand. as a way of example, if you're going to put something in there for transportation, maybe put car in your budget. that takes care of the car payment, the car insurance, the gas, the maintenance. then later on you can break it down and make it more complicated to really pinpoint where your issues may be. but just start simple. it shouldn't take any longer than a half hour to start with. that will give you a basic guideline to build from. >> this is sort of like categories. let me separate my spending into categories. >> first we have to get an idea of what we're spending money on, whether it's reasonable the amount we're spending, how much that way we can determine whether we need to increase our budget or decrease our budget or cut down on certain expenses. >> something like cable tv. >> hi. >> let's talk about. why would you not put something like that in a budget? >> it is a big expense. because it's not

live with a breakdown of the mayor's budget. the mayor says he can only maintain the current staffing levels because of increasing pension costs...and because less money is coming from the state. that said, barrett still refers to it as a "well staffed" police force. "the police department budget of 302 million dollar is more than our entire property tax levy." mayor tom barrett says people should be proud the city can maintain the police force where it currently is. next year's budget, this year alone we are putting 127 million dollars more into the police department and its pension than we did in 2004." barrett says his budget proposal pays for one-thousand-eight hundred and eighty-eight officers. "more than one-hudnred-sixty-five new police officers will be in our police academy in 2017, new officers will be on the job filling positions of officers will anticipate will retire." barrett also o millions less in "shared revenue" from the state. "12 million dollars less. that will tell you the challenges we face." from public saf

contrary to what i am hearing, the budget -- the budget should be managed as we manage the budget withinur own family. the difference is, and our families, we have discretionary and nondiscretionary income. the second point is there are two limits on our budget as we manage the funds. number one is a soft limit which is our income. number two is the hard limit, which is our debt. i believe that we should have debt, because debt is one of the disciplines in budgeting. debt itself is actually the storage of the difference between your income and your spending. going back to my first point, spending is discretionary and nondiscretionary. and if ie it around allocate a certain amount of money for vacations in my budget and i find out that i have a nondiscretionary expense, such as a medical expense, i will move it. thinking about ebola versus zika, it is a good idea as a nondiscretionary concept to support ebola. priorityave a higher nondiscretionary spending, it makes common sense. host: we will that our guests respond. guest: if you are comparing your vacations to paying your your daughter

because i'm for getting a budget and for budget stability. and i just observe. i'm not a participant. i'm an observer. that the only way this happens is not with this proposal and that proposal, it's with bipartisan budget agreement. we're just playing it straight. >> you are the deputy secretary of defense for secretary panetta, is that correct? >> yes. >> on page 374 of his memoirs he wrote, a few congressional democrats urged me to emphasize the danger of cuts to domestic programs, not just defense. to my amazement, the rest of the cabinet including members responsible for those parts of the budget largely stayed out of the debate. that left me to argue for all of us which i tried to do even when i found myself frustratingly alone. have congressional democrats urged you to advocate for domestic spending in addition to defense spending? >> first of all, i should say few had the experience with bipartisan budget management than secretary panetta. i don't remember that passage in his memoirs but it sounds like his voice. i've got found myself in the same circums

so everything that we deal with in terms of an unstable budget and one your budgets actually gets accelerated into industry as well. >> you alluded to the impact that has on our national security and our ability to be prepared, can i get you to elaborate more on that? >> it goes to what kind of weapon systems that we need to modernize. so for the air force, like all the services we have aircraft that has exceeded their service life and they have got to be replaced. so we rely on industry to support us with our acquisition programs going forward. if we don't have stable budgets, if we don't have the research and development dollars to develop that technology for the future then what happens to us as we continue to push it to the right and like millie said you start mortgaging the future to pay for the current readiness. the other challenge you have is the aircraft age over time. they become more and more expensive to fly. so you take more the dollars that you need for research and modernization and you shift them to older weapon systems. it adds up to an increased risk. >> thank you. >> if i c

to make it manageable for a budgeting -- institute zero-based budgeting which i used four years in georgia, which assesses every program every year. projections we will have a balanced budget by fiscal year of 1981, if i am elected president. keep my promises to the american people. and it's just predicated on very modest, but i think accurate, projections of employment increases and growth in our national economy equal to what was experienced under kennedy, johnson, before the vietnam war. mr. newman: president ford. if it is true that there will be a $60 billion surplus by fiscal year rather 1981, than spend that money for all the new programs that governor carter recommends and endorses, and which are included in the democratic platform, i think the american taxpayer ought to get an additional tax break. a tax reduction of that magnitude. i feel that the taxpayers of the ones that need the relief. i do not think we should add programs of the magnitude the governor carter talks about. it seems to me that our tax structure today has rates that e are too high. but a.m. glad to point out th

city wide budget including the port budget for the two fiscal years. today i want to highlight the major changes that occurred within the budget. between the two fiscal years the budget changed by 5.8 million in 16-17 and 10.8 in 17-18. as the table highlights the majority of the change is driven by capital funding. you can see 4.1 million in the first year driven by the reflection of 2.1 million of grants that the port commission had previously approved. one was a grant that is going to support crane cove park for pedestrian and bike access along the park. approximately 1 million of security grant funding. these were reflected in the budget. typically we go through a separate legislation process. and then very notebly as previous noted, the port received general fund support in both fiscal years. first for $1 million and for $6.5 million and also received $1 million each fiscal year from other city departments, the mta and planning department. each contributed $500 thousand per year for the sea wall resiliency project. additional chaipgs to revenue an
