What this amendment would do

  • The amendment was submitted by Ms. Alsobrooks, along with Mr. Kim and Ms. Blunt Rochester.

  • It creates a deficit-neutral reserve fund relating to Federal agencies.

  • It allows the Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate to make changes and adjustments for legislation related to Federal agencies.

  • Specifically, this can include preventing a reorganization of divisions at the Department of Health and Human Services that would undermine ongoing efforts to combat the opioid epidemic, address health disparities, or relate to pandemic preparedness.
