What this amendment would do

Summary and Purpose

  • What it is: Mr. Booker submitted amendment numbered SA 2043 to the concurrent resolution for the 2025 congressional budget.
  • Main purpose: It sets up a deficit-neutral reserve fund relating to Superfund polluter payments.
  • What it aims to change or add: It allows the Chairman of the Senate Committee on the Budget to revise committee allocations, aggregates, and other levels, and make adjustments to the pay-as-you-go ledger. This applies to legislation relating to Superfund cleanup, which may include holding polluters responsible for cleaning up contaminated Superfund sites.
  • The catch: Any legislation doing this cannot increase the deficit over the total period of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
