But the real concern within the Army is the automatic budget caps passed by Congress known as sequestration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;What we are really worried about of course with sequestration is 2016, when it will fall off the cliff,&#8221; Hallock said. He would not speculate on how much of a drop that would entail for the Army.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sequestration placed budget caps on total Defense and non-defense spending, while legislation congress passed in 2013 lifted those caps through fiscal 2015. But the cuts will return in force in fiscal 2016 unless Congress acts to pass legislation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Army may spend up to $5 billion less on goods,
