Purpose and Changes

  • The amendment adds a deficit-neutral reserve fund relating to funding for grants awarded by the Office on Violence Against Women.
  • It allows the Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate to revise allocations, aggregates, and other levels, and make adjustments to the pay-as-you-go ledger.
  • These revisions are for legislation relating to providing funding for grants awarded by the Office on Violence Against Women of the Department of Justice.
  • The grants are designed to develop the capacity of the United States to reduce domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking by strengthening services to victims and holding offenders accountable.
  • This is permitted provided that the legislation does not increase the deficit over the total period of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
