What this amendment would do

As your legislative analyst, let's break down what this amendment is all about using plain common sense. This amendment was submitted by Ms. Rosen regarding the congressional budget for the United States Government.

What the Amendment Aims to Do

  • Protects FEMA: The amendment adds a new point of order in the Senate. This rule makes it out of order to consider any bill, joint resolution, motion, amendment, amendment between the Houses, or conference report that would reduce appropriations for or eliminate the Federal Emergency Management Agency.

  • Sets High Hurdles for Changes: If anyone wants to bypass this rule or appeal a ruling about it, it takes a three-fifths vote of the Senators chosen and sworn to make it happen.
