What this amendment would do

As folks keeping an eye on how our government spends money and handles the law, here is the plain truth about what this amendment does. Mr. Bennet submitted SA 1304, which proposes adding a new deficit-neutral reserve fund to the concurrent resolution.

The whole point of this addition is to focus on increasing prosecutions and penalties for gun trafficking along the southern border.

  • It allows the Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate to change committee allocations and other levels.
  • It lets them make adjustments to the pay-as-you-go ledger for legislation dealing with this specific border gun trafficking issue.
  • It only works if the legislation does not increase the deficit over the total period of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
