What this amendment would do
Mr. Kelly put forward this amendment to deal with how government information is handled. Simply put, it sets up a deficit-neutral reserve fund so Congress can pass rules stopping people from leaking sensitive stuff that shouldn't be made public.
What It Aims to Change
This addition to the bill gives the Chairman of the Senate Committee on the Budget the power to change funding levels and make adjustments. This can only happen for legislation meant to prevent the disclosure of unauthorized information.
Specifically, the text mentions it could include rules that prohibit employees of the U.S. DOGE Service Temporary Organization from posting classified information, like classified budget data or classified personnel information, on its website.
The big catch here is that any new legislation using this fund must not increase the deficit between fiscal years 2025 and 2034.
