What this amendment would do

Mr. Padilla submitted amendment SA 1118 to the concurrent resolution on the budget for fiscal year 2025. The purpose of this amendment is to add a deficit-neutral reserve fund that focuses on protecting children from illegal child labor and holding employers accountable.

Here is what the amendment aims to do:

  • Allow the Chairman of the Senate Committee on the Budget to revise allocations and make adjustments for legislation related to combating child labor.
  • Support actions that include increasing enforcement capacity or increasing penalties for employers who violate child labor laws.
  • Ensure that the legislation does not increase the deficit over the fiscal years 2025 through 2029 or fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
