It is the policy of this resolution that--
(1) the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (Public

(a) Findings.--The House finds that:
(1) In 1996, President Bill Clinton and congressional
Republicans enacted reforms that have moved families off of

10 years we will spend approximately $10 trillion on means-
tested welfare programs.
(3) Today, there are currently 77 Federal programs that
provide benefits specifically to poor and low-income Americans.

how well these programs are working, and how much the Federal
Government is spending on means-tested welfare.
(b) Policy on Means-Tested Welfare Programs.--It is the policy of
this resolution that the President's budget should disclose, in a clear
and transparent manner, the aggregate amount of Federal welfare
expenditures, as well as an estimate of State and local spending for
this purpose, over the next ten years.
SEC. 504. POLICY STATEMENT ON REFORMING THE FEDERAL BUDGET PROCESS.
It is the policy of this resolution that the Federal budget process
should be reformed so that it is easier to reduce Federal spending than
it is to increase it by enacting reforms included in the Spending,
Deficit, and Debt Control Act of 2009 (H.R. 3964, 111th Congress).
