What this amendment would do
This amendment would add a deficit-neutral reserve fund to the concurrent resolution.
The Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate would be permitted to change the spending limits of committees or the pay-as-you-go ledger, which is a record used to track how new laws affect the deficit. This change would apply to legislation that requires executive branch agencies to give certain funds to eligible entities that have approved agreements with the Federal Government. These funds may include money that has been legally appropriated by Congress and allocated by agencies, such as funds from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. The amendment specifies that this can occur for legislation intended to increase access to broadband. Any such legislation must not increase the deficit during the period of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
