Today I submit a revised allocation which has been modified, primarily, to reduce outlays for each subcommittee to reflect the President's decision to release none of the contingent emergency appropriations in the supplemental. In addition, the allocation reflects final decisions on the conference report on defense and military construction appropriations bills. These revised allocations were prepared in consultation with my dear colleague, Senator Stevens, the distinguished ranking member of the Committee, who stands with me committed to presenting bills to the Senate consistent with the allocations. Furthermore, we remain committed to oppose any amendments that would breach the allocations.
