What this amendment would do

  • This amendment was submitted by Ms. Cortez Masto for the 2025 congressional budget resolution.

  • Its main purpose is to create a rule in the Senate against funding any immigration enforcement actions that would result in higher beef prices for American consumers.

How It Holds Officials Accountable

  • Under this proposed rule, it would not be in order in the Senate to consider any bill, joint resolution, motion, amendment, or conference report that leads to this specific problem.

  • To bypass this rule, the Senate would need an affirmative vote of three-fifths of the Members, duly chosen and sworn.
