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 have the authority to change budget levels and make adjustments to the pay-as-you-go ledger, which is a record used to track how new legislation affects the deficit.
- This authority would apply to bills, resolutions, or motions that provide resources to equip and train emergency personnel, increase efficiencies, and support community resilience.
- These resources may include the assistance to firefighters grant program that provides funding to fire departments.
- The changes can only be made if the legislation does not increase the deficit during the period of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
