What this amendment would do
This amendment would add a deficit-neutral reserve fund to the concurrent resolution.
The amendment allows the Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate to change specific budget levels and adjustments to the pay-as-you-go ledger, which is a record used to track the costs of legislation.
These changes would apply to legislation intended to increase funding for Meals on Wheels.
The funding for these purposes would be provided by stopping tax cuts for billionaires.
The amendment specifies that such legislation must not increase the deficit, which is the amount by which government spending exceeds revenue, over the period of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
