What this amendment would do
This amendment would add a deficit-neutral reserve fund to the resolution.
-
The Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate would be permitted to change budget allocations and adjustments for specific legislation related to protecting shipyard workers.

This includes legislation that might stop mass layoffs, reductions in force, or hiring freezes at public shipyards without approval from Congress.
-
It also covers legislation requiring the Department of Defense and the Department of the Navy to keep a minimum number of workers at each public shipyard.
-
Additionally, it covers legislation that requires a process to notify Congress of any proposed staff reductions at these shipyards.
-
These changes would only apply if the legislation does not increase the deficit, which is the annual shortfall between government spending and revenue, during the years 2025 through 2034.
