What this amendment would do

This amendment would add a new section to the budget resolution regarding a deficit-neutral reserve fund for preserving data security.

The Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate would be permitted to change the spending limits or financial levels of committees.

These changes would apply to legislation intended to ensure that no company with an active Federal contract transfers the data of a United States person to a server in a foreign entity of concern without express authorization from that person.

The amendment requires that any such legislation would not increase the deficit, which is the amount of money the government owes, during the years 2025 through 2034.
