6 5 In the Introduction to the Historical Tables, OMB noted, “Because of the numerous changes in the way budget data have been presented over time, there are inevitable difficulties in trying to produce comparable data to cover many years. The general rule is to provide data in as meaningful and comparable a fashion as possible. To the extent feasible, the data are presented on a basis consistent with current budget concepts. When a structural change is made, insofar as possible the data are adjusted for all years.” See Office of Management and Budget, “Introduction to the Historical Tables,” in Budget of the United States Government, Fiscal Year 2023, p. 1, https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/BUDGET-2023-TAB/pdf/BUDGET-2023-TAB-1.pdf. 6 Each summer, OMB issues instructions to all federal executive departments and agencies on submitting budget data and materials for inclusion in the President’s budget documents.
