What this amendment would do
This amendment would change the concurrent resolution by establishing a deficit-neutral reserve fund.
The Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate would be permitted to revise certain budget levels or make adjustments to the pay-as-you-go ledger, which is a record of the costs of legislation.
These changes would apply to legislation intended to protect continued access to grants and programs used by families and schools in the State of Massachusetts for access to food.
The specific programs mentioned include the emergency food assistance program established under the Emergency Food Assistance Act of 1983, the local food purchase assistance cooperative agreement program established pursuant to section 1001 of the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, and the Local Food for Schools Cooperative Agreement Program.
The adjustments would be made by the amounts provided in the legislation for those purposes.
This action is permitted provided that the legislation would not increase the deficit over the period of the total of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
