Letter to the Speaker of the House of Representatives on Fiscal Year 2025 Budget Amendments

Dear Mr. Speaker:

I ask the Congress to consider the enclosed Fiscal Year (FY) 2025 Budget amendments for the Departments of Agriculture, Education, Health and Human Services, and Homeland Security as well as the Army Corps of Engineers.  These amendments are necessary to correctly reflect policies assumed in my FY 2025 Budget.  These amendments would decrease by $316 million the overall discretionary budget authority in my FY 2025 Budget.

This transmittal also contains one FY 2025 Budget amendment for the Legislative Branch.  As a matter of comity and tradition, this appropriations request for the Legislative Branch is transmitted without change.  This amendment would decrease by $4 million the overall discretionary budget authority in my FY 2025 Budget.

Taken together, the transmitted amendments would decrease by $320 million the overall discretionary budget authority in my FY 2025 Budget.

The details of this proposal are set forth in the enclosed letter from the Director of the Office of Management and Budget.

                             Sincerely,

                             JOSEPH R. BIDEN JR.
