Excerpt
Excerpt: The Government Printing Office (GPO) completed the presentation of its FY 2003 appropriations request to Congress by appearing before the Senate Subcommittee on Legislative Branch Appropriations on Wednesday, May 8. GPO presented its appropriations request to the House Subcommittee on Legislative Appropriations on April 24. Testifying before Subcommittee Chairman Richard J. Durbin, Public Printer Michael F. DiMario requested a total of $129. million for FY 2003. The request includes $95. million for Congressional Printing and Binding and $34. million for Salaries and Expenses of the Superintendent of Documents. The request represents an increase of $14.7 million over the amount approved for FY 2002. However, the increase includes $6.9 million to cover the cost of post-retirement benefits for the employees covered by the two appropriations, in compliance with a directive from the Office of Management and Budget. It also includes approximately $5.9 million for congressional printing to fund a prior year (FY 2001) shortfall in that appropriation. Net of these amounts, GPO’s request for FY 2003 represents an increase of $1.9 million, or less than 2%, over the amount approved by Congress for the previous year.
