What this amendment would do
This amendment would add a point of order, which is a rule that prevents a specific action, to the congressional budget resolution.
The amendment would prevent the Senate from considering any bill, joint resolution, motion, amendment, amendment between the Houses, or conference report that reduces funding related to issues addressed by the Violence Against Women Act of 1994.
The point of order could only be waived or suspended if three-fifths of the Senate members vote in favor of doing so.
Additionally, three-fifths of the Senate members would be required to uphold an appeal of the ruling made by the Chair regarding this point of order.
