What this amendment would do

Mrs. Shaheen submitted amendment SA 1958 to the concurrent resolution for the 2025 congressional budget. The purpose of this amendment is to create a deficit-neutral reserve fund that supports the workforce at the Federal Bureau of Prisons.

The amendment aims to allow the Chairman of the Senate Committee on the Budget to make adjustments to budget allocations and the pay-as-you-go ledger. These changes would support legislation related to the Federal Bureau of Prisons workforce, provided the legislation does not increase the deficit from fiscal years 2025 through 2034.

Specifically, the changes or additions can include:

  • Restoring retention incentives authorized prior to March 23, 2025.

  • Exempting employees from executive orders, directives, or memorandums that prohibit them from exercising their collective bargaining authority.
