NAUDL 2013-14

Summary/Glossary
Summary:
Currently, the federal government is providing a sufficient amount of funding for crucial
social service programs which are targeted at reducing poverty and improving the
overall state of the economy. There are fights over the new budget coming which will
force Congress to make hard choices over what to provide funding for. The affirmative
plan, which increases funding for ocean exploration or development would force
Congress to cut money from other programs to pay for them, specifically social service
programs like housing vouchers, education programs, food stamps, unemployment, and
job training programs, which are necessary to build up the U.S. economy from
recession.
Key Terms:
Appropriation How much money is mandated for a specific program or agency
Deficit Deficits occur when the amount of government spending is greater than the
amount of revenue it brings in
FY 2013 FY refers for fiscal year or a year as reckoned for taxing or accounting
purposes. It may not align with the actual calendar year. For example, your local
school board would think of this school year as FY2015 even though it will take place in
both 2014 and 2015.
NOAA National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, which is the agency that
does most ocean exploration and development
PAYGO and CUTGO PAYGO was the previous rule used by Congress to mandate
that new expenditures should be paid for in some way rather than adding to the deficit,
CUTGO refers to the new rule that mandates that new spending should be
accompanied by cuts in the budget
Sequestration a program enacted by the United States federal government in 2013
