Purpose and Changes

  • Add a deficit-neutral reserve fund: The amendment adds a new section to the end of title III relating to the implementation of the Coast Guard's Accountability and Transparency Review Report.

  • Allow budget revisions: It allows the Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate to revise committee allocations, aggregates, and other appropriate levels, and to make adjustments to the pay-as-you-go ledger.

  • Target specific improvements: These revisions and adjustments can be made for legislation relating to sexual misconduct prevention, accountability, investigations, and victim recovery improvements in the Coast Guard.

  • Protect the budget: The legislation funded by these changes must not increase the deficit over the total period of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
