What this amendment would do

As your analyst, let's break down what Mr. Daines is trying to do with this amendment, using plain common sense.

The purpose of this amendment, SA 1152, is to set up a deficit-neutral reserve fund that relates to improving the security of the northern border.

Here is what it aims to change or add to the bill:

  • It allows the Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate to revise committee allocations, aggregates, and other appropriate levels in the resolution.
  • It allows the Chairman to make adjustments to the pay-as-you-go ledger for legislation relating to protecting national security by increasing border security personnel, equipment, and resources to the international border between the United States and Canada.
  • It only allows these changes provided that the legislation would not increase the deficit over the total of fiscal years 2025 through 2029 or fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
