Excerpt from Senate Hearings, and Department of Defense Appropriations, Vol. 1: Before the Committee on Appropriations, Fiscal Year 1994 The subcommittee met at 10:04 a.m., in room SD-192, Dirksen Senate Office Builing, Ho. Daniel K. Inouye (chairman) presiding. Present: Senator Inouye, Holling, Johnston, Leahly, Sasser, DeConcini, Bumper, Lautenberg, Harkin, Stevens, Cochram, Specter, Domenici, Nickles, and Bond. Department Of Defense Office of the Secretary of Defense Statement of Hon. Les Aspin, Secretary of Defense Opening statement of Senator Inouye Senator Inouye. With this very important hearing, the Subcommittee on Defense Appropriations begins its review of the fiscal year 1994 budget for the Department of Defense. Today we begin the process to formulate our recommendations to the Senate on future defense spending. The budget request by the new administration seeks $250.7 billion for the Department. Of this amount, $241.6 billion is within the jurisdiction of this subcommittee. The request is $12.2 billion, or 5.2 percent, in spending authority below the funding that the subcommittee provided in fiscal year 1993. President Clinton´s budget request for the coming year has been labeled by many as being rather conservative in its approach, because little has changed from the proposals planned by the former President for fiscal year 1994. While procurement purchases are to be reduced from last year´s level by $10.3 billion, no major weapons systems are terminated under this program. O & M funding remains flat in the Army and Navy, with the Air Force proposing a $2.5 billion increase. Research funding would receive a modest $500 million increase, while military personnel funds would be reduced by $6.2 billion. Because of the proposed pay freeze and the continuing reductions in troop strength, this conservative and cautious approach to fiscal year 1994 stands in sharp contrast to the administration´s support for extraordinary reductions in the future.
