FY 2013 Appropriations: At What Cost to States? Proposed FY 2013 Funding for Major Discretionary Programs Compared to FY 2012 (See Jim Martin Table for Detail): Federal AgencyPresidentHouseSenate Education1.3%n/a0.5% Health and Human Services-1.9%n/a1.2% Housing and Urban Development 1.7%2.4%5.2% Energy/EPA-11.6%-36.2%n/a Justice-1.5%-6.0%6.9% Homeland Security29.4%27.2%3.5% Labor-2.2%n/a-2.9% Transportation6.8%-0.3%0.3%

Will Congress Pass a FY 2013 Budget? Continuing Resolution (CR) likely, but for how long? – House and Senate leaders reached broad agreement on six month CR – Details still need to be resolved – Will it pass both houses in September? – What happens after?

Part 2: What if the BCA Sequester is Implemented Next January?

Overview: BCA of 2011 Three components with potential to affect future funding for state grant programs: Discretionary spending caps w/adjustments (done) Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction (failed) Sequestration process (January 2, 2013)

Sequester Process: What We Know $984 billion in cuts required over FYs Roughly $109 billion per year, half from defense and half from nondefense Many mandatory and a few discretionary programs are exempt ATB cuts in FY 2013, different process for FY 2014+

Sequester: What We Don’t Know What is the ATB percentage cut? CBO estimates 7.8% for nondefense discretionary and mandatory, 10% for defense Exact percentage won’t be known until January 2013

Sequester: What We Don’t Know How will individual programs be affected? Percentage reduction applied to FY 2013 funding (or CR level) OMB has authority to apply exemptions and special rules Examples (Medicare, UI, health care reform, trust funds)

Sequester: What We Don’t Know How much discretion do agencies have in implementing sequester? Virtually none. Some influence over timing (recent ED guidance) Will Congress and the president modify the BCA? Various proposals, no agreement (explicit legislation required) Congress did approve legislation requiring OMB to provide sequester details

What We Can Guess About a Sequester Potential Impact of BCA Sequester (in millions) FY 2010FY 2011FY 2012FY 2013 Nondefense Grants: Covered ProgramsN/A$109,539$106,682$98,815 Dollar Change -2,857-7,867 Percent Change -2.6%-7.4% NIH Funding: TotalN/A23,753N/A21,900 Dollar Change -1,853 Percent Change -7.8% Defense Funding: Total508,490N/A 457,641 Dollar Change -50,849 Percent Change -10.0%

Will Sequester Happen? Conventional Wisdom: agreeing to postpone the day of reckoning, BUT… – Many other issues at play – May depend on outcome of election – Waiting too long to act could have a major negative impact on economy How will companies respond to WARN Act and latest guidance?
