What this amendment would do
This amendment would add a point of order, which is a rule used to prevent a specific type of legislation from being considered, to the budget resolution.
It would prevent the Senate from considering any bill, joint resolution, motion, amendment, amendment between the Houses, or conference report that provides funding for United States Armed Forces to be deployed to Gaza for the purpose of asserting control over Gaza.
The amendment states that this rule can only be waived or suspended by a vote of three-fifths of the Senate members.
An affirmative vote of three-fifths of the Senate members would also be required to sustain an appeal of the ruling of the Chair regarding this point of order.
