14 Appropriation without Authorization??? Supplementals In the absence of an authorization. CRA Does the Auth match the Approps EXACTLY? 14

16 Regular Order in FY17? Senate majority vs cloture Scalia Replacement BBA2015 versus Republican base Gitmo Riders and Ryan 16
17 Speaker Ryan and his Mandate for Transparency Allow all voices to be heard everyone is part if the process! Energy and Water approps bill defeated Germaneness? Meh. "sit down with our members and have a family discussion about how best to proceed, so that the appropriations process cannot be sabotaged and derailed. Defense bill on Floor week of 6th 17
18 An Ode to Esther James Madison, 6 Feb 1788 If men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary. In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this: you must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place oblige it to control itself. 18
19 PB17 $523.9B + $58.8B = $582.7B Is OCO a floor or a ceiling? 19
20 The OCO Gimmick Ver 1.0 Short-term fix Don t you WANT the money? GOP: Don t you like the military? Defense Hawk vs Budget Hawk? 20

22 OCO Gimmick 2.0 We ll authorize you higher than requested and then MAKE you do an OCO Supplemental before 30 April Buy base items with OCO dollars (House) 22
23 CRA Why this matters to you? Periodic outreach and trust matter staffers too! Don t forget the congressional lens SECDEF s recruiting and retention
24 Personnel and Readiness PB17 1.6% pay raise HASC and HAC-D already at 2.1%...SASC is on the way Modest change to Tricare fees for retirees ($3.5B FYDP savings) HASC $200M savings, SASC $2.4B savings, HAC-D $900M cost Pharmacy co-pays (saves $300M) HASC and HAC-D denied Others Transgender, Women in combat.do they have costs? 24
