What this amendment would do

Ms. Blunt Rochester submitted amendment SA 1721 to the concurrent resolution on the congressional budget for fiscal year 2025. The purpose of this amendment is to set up a deficit-neutral reserve fund.

What It Aims to Change or Add

This amendment aims to allow the Chairman of the Senate Committee on the Budget to change budget allocations and make adjustments for legislation. Specifically, it applies to measures relating to preserving workforce funding at the Department of Agriculture, which may include supporting staffing at the Natural Resources Conservation Service.

This service ensures farmers receive aid through:

  • Technical assistance
  • Nutrient management plans development
  • Soil health evaluations
  • Conservation programs

These changes can only happen if the legislation does not increase the deficit over the total period of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
