What this amendment would do

This amendment would add a point of order, which is a rule used to object to a specific legislative action, to the concurrent resolution.

The amendment would prohibit the Senate from considering any bill, joint resolution, motion, amendment, amendment between the Houses, or conference report that provides funding for immigration enforcement actions at hospitals.

The rule could only be waived or suspended if three-fifths of the Senate members vote in favor of doing so.

An affirmative vote of three-fifths of the Senate members would also be required to uphold an appeal of the ruling made by the Chair regarding this point of order.
