What this amendment would do

  • The text shows SA 1492, which was submitted by Mr. Welch.
  • Its purpose is to add a deficit-neutral reserve fund to the concurrent resolution.
  • It aims to allow changes to budget allocations, aggregates, and the pay-as-you-go ledger for legislation related to prohibiting liquefied natural gas exports that would raise energy costs for households in the United States.

What It Changes or Adds

  • It adds a new section at the end of title III titled "DEFICIT-NEUTRAL RESERVE FUND RELATING TO PROHIBITING LIQUEFIED NATURAL GAS EXPORTS THAT WOULD RAISE ENERGY COSTS FOR HOUSEHOLDS IN THE UNITED STATES."
  • It gives the Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate the power to revise allocations and make adjustments for bills or amendments about this topic, as long as the legislation does not increase the deficit from fiscal year 2025 through fiscal year 2034.
