What this amendment would do

As folks who care about keeping our elected officials honest and accountable, we need to know what our government is up to. Senator Warren submitted this amendment, numbered SA 2022, to the concurrent resolution on the budget for fiscal year 2025.

Purpose and Changes

The purpose of this amendment is to set up a deficit-neutral reserve fund. In plain English, this means it allows the Chairman of the Senate Committee on the Budget to change budget levels and financial rules to make room for future legislation.

Specifically, this amendment aims to add provisions relating to the rule of law. This can include investigating decisions made by the United States Government to pause or drop fraud cases against individuals who make significant investments in projects that benefit the President or other United States Government officials.

  • Deficit-Neutral Rule: Any future legislation dealing with these investigations must not increase the federal deficit over the total period of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
