MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT
FROM:
~:~:;i,;,;:::~ht
SlJBJECT: Designation of Funding as an Emergency Requirement
The Congress designated as an emergency requirement all funding in the Emergency
Appropriations for Coronavirus Health Response and Agency Operations (division B ofH.R.
748, the CARES Act; the "Act"). Section 23006 of the Act provides that the availability of
funding that is designated by the Congress as an emergency requirement pursuant to section
251 (b )(2)(A) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 (BBEDCA) is
contingent upon the President subsequently so designating all such amounts and transmitting
such designations to the Congress.
The Act provides a net total of$340 billion in fiscal year (FY) 2020 emergency funding
to prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus.
I recommend that yon designate as emergency requirements all funding so designated by
the Congress in the Act pursuant to section 251 (b)(2)(A) ofBBEDCA, as outlined in tbe
enclosed list of accounts. Upon transmittal of these designations to the Congress, these funds
will be immediately available for obligation and expenditure. No further congressional action
will be required.
The designation of these funds as emergency requirements allows for adjustlnents to the
discretionary spending limits in FY 2020, as specified in section 25l(b)(2)(A) of BBEDCA.
These adjustments will be reflected when the Office of Management and Budget submits its
sequestration update report for FY 2021 in accordance with section 254(e) ofBBEDCA.
I have reviewed this proposed action and am satisfied it is necessary at this time.
Therefore, I recommend that you make the requested funds available by signing the enclosed
letters to the Speaker of the House of Representatives and the President of the Senate.
