What this amendment would do

Mrs. Shaheen submitted amendment SA 1961, which was ordered to lie on the table. Its purpose is to create a deficit-neutral reserve fund relating to replenishing United States defense stocks sent to Taiwan.

The amendment aims to change the budget resolution by allowing the Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate to revise committee allocations, aggregates, and other appropriate levels. It also allows the Chairman to make adjustments to the pay-as-you-go ledger for legislation relating to supporting defense readiness, which may include replenishing United States defense stocks sent to Taiwan. This is allowed provided that the legislation would not increase the deficit over the total period of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
