What this amendment would do
This amendment would add a deficit-neutral reserve fund to the budget resolution.
The Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate would be permitted to change budget allocations and adjustments for specific types of legislation. This applies to bills or motions that relate to energy costs, such as those that stop decreases in funding for energy affordability programs. It could also apply to legislation that stops tariffs or trade practices that raise energy costs for consumers. These changes would be made by the amounts specified in the new legislation. This provision is only applicable if the legislation does not increase the deficit, which is the gap between government spending and revenue, between fiscal years 2025 and 2034.
