 | | Supporters of a balanced budget amendment argue that Congress has shown itself both unwilling and incapable of balancing the federal budget. | | | It requires that the president submit, and Congress pass, a balanced budget each fiscal year unless three-fifths of the whole House and three-fifths of the whole Senate vote to incur a deficit. | | | In September 1987, faced with a projected budget deficit of $183 billion for FY 1988 (far exceeding the $108 billion target), Congress revised the law (P.L. 100-119) and adopted higher deficit levels supposedly bringing a balanced budget in FY 1993. |

| | The Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 (popularly known as Gramm-Rudman-Hollings) set annual deficit targets that were intended to lead to a balanced budget in 1991. | | | Consequently, the law was amended by the Budget Enforcement Act of 1990 (BEA). | | | Along with a constitutional amendment to balance the budget and the extension of the BEA procedures, those and other budget process changes are also likely to be considered in the 105th Congress. |

| | A balanced budget amendment is both necessary and appropriate to protect the interests of a group of citizens not now able to represent themselves: the citizens of future generations. | | | The most fundamental change needed in the Federal budget process is a constitutional amendment to require a balanced budget. | | | A balanced budget amendment must also include safeguards against a resort to higher taxes as a means of complying with the constitutional mandate. |

| | Gilmour deftly shows that the massive budget deficits of the Reagan years were due primarily to the failure of the House, the Senate, and the President to agree on how to reduce spending or increase taxes enough to eliminate the deficit. | | | From his thorough analysis, Gilmour concludes that, while the reforms have not produced balanced budgets, they have eliminated procedural obstructions to the adoption of a coherent budget. | | | Gilmour shows that reconciliation procedures in the budget process makes total revenue, total expenditures, and the size of the deficit matters of deliberate choice, consolidating decisionmaking to an extent unprecedented in the history of the modern Congress. |

| | In order to eliminate the federal budget deficit, Congress enacted the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 (Act), popularly known as the "Gramm-Rudman-Hollings Act," which sets a maximum deficit amount for federal spending for each of the fiscal years 1986 through 1991 (progressively reducing the deficit amount to zero in 1991). | | | If in any fiscal year the budget deficit exceeds the prescribed maximum by more than a specified sum, the Act requires basically across-the-board cuts in federal spending to reach the targeted deficit level. | | | The Act's provisions give him, not the President, the ultimate authority in determining what budget cuts are to be made. |
