The principal law within the Subcommittee's purview is the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974. Also, the Subcommittee enjoys jurisdiction over budget process related provisions found in Part C of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 and the Budget Enforcement Act of 1990.

hello

I have signed up for the other rules subcommittee and am coming over here to say hello and see what you are doing. I see you've done a lot already.

I'm still very much learning, about the committee and about how to operate within wiki.

I dont' think we need to coordinate our efforts, but thought it would be good to open up the possibility of discussion within the "rules group," that is if it makes sense to be a group.

so, hello. --Jjellin 06:29, 14 November 2006 (PST)

hi back atcha!  :)

I signed up for three committees in a burst of overenthusiastic madness. So it looks like I've done a ton, but I really just copied-and-pasted, then changed some things around.

I think you're right, it would be great to have a discussion within the whole committee--and would save us from duplicating work!

Glad to meetcha, wiki-ly.  :) --celticshel 06:47, 14 November 2006 (PST)
