What this amendment would do
This amendment would change the concurrent resolution by adding a deficit-neutral reserve fund relating to protecting families from high grocery costs.
The Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate would be permitted to revise 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.
These adjustments would apply to bills, joint resolutions, amendments, motions, or conference reports, which are formal proposals or final versions of legislation.
The actions could include restoring cancelled purchases under federal food assistance programs, such as the emergency food assistance program and the local food purchase assistance cooperative agreement program.
It also includes the Local Food for Schools Cooperative Agreement Program.
The changes must be for amounts provided in legislation that would not increase the deficit during the period of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
