What this amendment would do
This amendment would add a point of order, which is a rule used to object to a bill, to the existing measure.
The amendment prohibits the Senate from considering any legislation that would change the specific percentage used for community eligibility under the Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act to a level that would leave millions of children without access to nutritious food during school hours.
Any waiver or suspension of this rule in the Senate would require an affirmative vote of three-fifths of the Members.
Additionally, an affirmative vote of three-fifths of the Members would be required to sustain an appeal of the ruling of the Chair regarding this point of order.
