What this amendment would do
This text is SA 375, submitted by Ms. Cortez Masto regarding the congressional budget for the United States Government.
Purpose and Changes
- The purpose of this amendment is to add a new point of order in the Senate.
- It aims to stop the Senate from considering any legislation, resolution, motion, amendment, or conference report that provides funding for the deportation of children who are United States citizens.
- To bypass this rule and allow such funding legislation to be considered, it would take a three-fifths affirmative vote of the Senators chosen and sworn.
- Overruling the Chair on this specific point of order also requires that same three-fifths affirmative vote.
