S.Amdt. 2148

Mrs. Gillibrand and Mr. Schumer put forward an amendment, numbered SA 2148, regarding the congressional budget for the United States Government for fiscal year 2025 and setting forth the appropriate budgetary levels for fiscal years 2026 through 2034.

What It Aims to Change

This amendment creates a deficit-neutral reserve fund. It allows the Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate to change allocations, aggregates, and other levels in the resolution. It also allows the Chairman to make adjustments to the pay-as-you-go ledger.

These changes are for legislation relating to strengthening the workforce and funding of Federal programs providing medical benefits to individuals affected by disasters. This may include supporting the World Trade Center Health Program of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, or supporting permanent funding solutions to such programs. The only rule is that this legislation must not increase the deficit over the total period of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
