What this amendment would do
This amendment would add a deficit-neutral reserve fund to the budget resolution regarding services provided by the Social Security Administration.
The Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate would be permitted to change the spending limits, known as allocations, for various legislative items. These items include bills, joint resolutions, amendments, motions, or conference reports, which are formal ways to propose or settle legislation.
The changes would apply to legislation relating to services provided by the Social Security Administration, such as maintaining phone service so seniors and people with disabilities can access their benefits. This can only occur if the legislation does not increase the deficit, which is the gap between government spending and revenue, during the period of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
