MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT
FROM: Rus_sell T_- Vought(\_\,) /1_____
Acting Dtrector 'V'\../"\ -
SUBJECT: Designation of Funding as an Emergency Requirement
The Congress designated as an emergency requirement all funding in the Additional
Emergency Appropriations for Coronavirus Response (division B ofH.R. 266, the Paycheck
Protection Program and Health Care Enhancement Act; the "Act"). Section 306 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$162.l billion in fiscal year (FY) 2020 emergency funding
to prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus.
I recommend that you designate as emergency requirements all funding so designated by
the Congress in the Act pursuant to section 25l(b)(2)(A) ofBBEDCA, as outlined in the
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 adjustments to the
discretionary spending limits in FY 2020, as specified in section 251 (b )(2)(A) of BBEDCA.
These adjustments will be rcl1ected 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.
