What this amendment would do

As an analyst keeping an eye out for the people, let's break down what Senator Rosen's amendment (SA 1031) actually does in plain English.

What It Aims to Change or Add

The amendment adds a new section to title III of the concurrent resolution. Its purpose is to create a deficit-neutral reserve fund.

Specifically, this fund relates to protecting counternarcotics, counterterrorism, and cybersecurity efforts, along with other security assistance to United States allies that supports United States national security.

It allows the Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate to revise committee allocations, aggregates, and other appropriate levels, and make adjustments to the pay-as-you-go ledger. This can be done for bills, joint resolutions, amendments, amendments between the Houses, motions, or conference reports relating to these security purposes.

The key catch that we must hold our officials accountable to is that this legislation must not increase the deficit over either the total period of fiscal years 2025 through 2029 or the total period of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
