What this amendment would do
Mrs. Murray submitted this amendment, numbered SA 882, to the concurrent resolution on the budget for fiscal year 2025. Common sense tells us we need to keep track of what our elected officials are trying to slip into these massive budget plans.
The Purpose and Changes
The purpose of this amendment is to add a deficit-neutral reserve fund at the end of title III of the budget resolution.
Here is what it aims to change or add:
- It allows the Chairman of the Senate Committee on the Budget to change specific financial allocations and adjustments.
- These changes are meant for legislation that relates to protecting individuals and health care providers from prosecution or penalties.
- This protection applies to people who are seeking, providing, or receiving lawful health care services.
- There is a strict rule attached: the new legislation would not increase the deficit over the total period of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
