What this amendment would do

Mr. Kaine submitted amendment SA 1777 to the concurrent resolution for the congressional budget for fiscal year 2025.

The purpose of this amendment is to create a deficit-neutral reserve fund relating to back pay for wrongfully removed federal employees.

It aims to allow the Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate to revise allocations, aggregates, and other levels in the resolution, and to make adjustments to the pay-as-you-go ledger. This is specifically for legislation providing back pay to any individual whom a court finds was wrongfully removed from a position of federal employment because they refused to execute an illegal order.
