What this amendment would do
This amendment would add a new section to the budget resolution regarding the Federal Emergency Management Agency's disaster relief fund.
- The Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate would have the authority to change the money assigned to specific committees or specific totals.
- This authority includes making adjustments to the pay-as-you-go ledger, which is a record used to track how new laws affect the deficit.
- These changes would apply to bills, resolutions, or other legislative actions related to the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
- The changes may be used to ensure there are enough resources for disaster preparedness, response, or recovery based on the amounts in the legislation.
- This can only occur if the legislation does not increase the deficit, meaning the total amount of money the government owes, between fiscal years 2025 and 2034.
