What this amendment would do
This amendment would add a point of order, which is a rule that prevents certain actions, to the current budget resolution.
It would prohibit the Senate from considering any bill, joint resolution, motion, amendment, amendment between the Houses, or conference report that would result in a projected increase to household energy costs due to changes in subsidies, permitting, or leasing for offshore wind.
The amendment states that this rule can only be waived or suspended by an affirmative vote of three-fifths of the Senate members.
Additionally, a three-fifths vote of the Senate members would be required to sustain an appeal of a ruling made by the Chair regarding this rule.
