What this amendment would do
This amendment would add a point of order, which is a procedural rule used to object to a bill, to the concurrent resolution.
The rule would prevent the Senate from considering any reconciliation bill or resolution, or any related amendments, that would increase the cost of child care for United States families.
The amendment specifies that this rule can only be waived or suspended by a vote of three-fifths of the members of the Senate.
An affirmative vote of three-fifths of the members of the Senate would also be required to sustain an appeal of the ruling made by the Chair regarding this point of order.
