S.Amdt. 385

• The text provided is SA 385, an amendment submitted by Ms. Cortez Masto.
• It was submitted as a proposed amendment to the concurrent resolution S. Con. Res. 7, which sets the congressional budget for the United States Government for fiscal year 2025 and budgetary levels for fiscal years 2026 through 2034.

What the amendment aims to do

• The amendment adds a deficit-neutral reserve fund at the end of title III.
• This fund relates to studying the effects of the indiscriminate firing of employees of the National Nuclear Security Administration and the Nevada National Security Site by President Donald J. Trump.
• It allows the Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate to revise committee allocations, aggregates, and other appropriate levels in the resolution, and make adjustments to the pay-as-you-go ledger.
• These revisions and adjustments are for legislation relating to the termination of employees of the National Nuclear Security Administration, which includes a report analyzing the effects of indiscriminate termination of such employees on the national security of the United States.
• The changes can be made by the amounts provided in the legislation for those purposes, as long as the legislation would not increase the deficit over the total period of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
