What this amendment would do
SA 4977, submitted by Mr. Padilla, aims to add a section to title III of the concurrent resolution S. Con. Res. 33.
The purpose of this amendment is to create a deficit-neutral reserve fund to protect state and local election administration infrastructure from cyberattacks related to elections.
This change would allow the Chairman of the Senate Committee on the Budget to:
- Revise committee allocations, aggregates, and other levels in the resolution.
- Make adjustments to the pay-as-you-go ledger for specific legislative actions.
The amendment specifies that these actions may include:
- Grants to States.
- Full funding for the Elections Infrastructure Information Sharing and Analysis Center.
This is provided that the legislation does not increase the deficit from fiscal year 2026 through 2035.
