To the Congress of the United States:
In accordance with the Impoundment Control Act of 1974, I herewith report one revision to a previously transmitted rescission proposal decreasing the amount proposed by $6.4 million. In addition, I am reporting two new deferrals of budget authority totalling $20.0 million and two revisions to previously transmitted deferrals increasing the amount deferred by $13.9 million.
The revision to the rescission proposal affects the Health Resources Administration of the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare.
The new deferrals and revisions to existing deferrals involve programs in the Departments of Agriculture, Health, Education, and Welfare, and the Treasury.
