What this amendment would do

SA 2197, submitted by Mr. Lee, is a proposal that sets up a deficit-neutral reserve fund.

  • The purpose of this amendment is to allow the Chairman of the Senate Committee on the Budget to change budget allocations and levels for legislation relating to preserving the tax-exempt status of certain institutions.

  • It aims to protect the tax-exempt status of religious institutions, specifically those that hold to orthodox Christian, Jewish, or other traditional religious beliefs or practices concerning marriage, sexuality, or gender identity.

  • Any legislation making these changes must not increase the federal deficit over the total of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
