TO THE CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES:


     In accordance with section 202(c) of the District of Columbia
Financial Management and Responsibility Assistance Act of 1995 and section
446 of the District of Columbia Self-Governmental Reorganization Act as
amended in 1989, I am transmitting the District of Columbia's Fiscal Year
2001 Budget Request Act.

     The proposed FY 2001 Budget reflects the major programmatic objectives
of the Mayor, the Council of the District of Columbia, and the District of
Columbia Financial Responsibility and Management Assistance Authority.  For
FY 2001, the District estimates revenue of $5.718 billion and total
expenditures of $5.714 billion, resulting in a budget surplus of $4.128
million.

     My transmittal of the District of Columbia's budget, as required by
law, does not represent an endorsement of its contents.





                                   WILLIAM J. CLINTON






THE WHITE HOUSE,
    July 20, 2000.
