What this amendment would do

As folks who care about holding our elected officials accountable, we need to know what our government is up to. Here is the plain-language breakdown of what this amendment is trying to do based strictly on the text provided.

Mr. Murphy submitted amendment SA 1910 to the concurrent resolution H. Con. Res. 14 for the fiscal year 2025 budget.

  • The purpose is to create a deficit-neutral reserve fund relating to preventing conflicts of interest in national security.

  • It aims to allow the Chairman of the Senate Committee on the Budget to revise allocations and make adjustments for legislation related to strengthening Government ethics.

  • The changes could include legislation that would:

    • Strengthen financial transparency and conflict-of-interest rules.

    • Increase ethics and oversight enforcement.

    • Prevent senior executive branch officials from investing in Russia, China, Iran, or North Korea.

    • This all comes with the strict rule that the legislation would not increase the deficit over the total period of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
