What this amendment would do

MR. OSSOFF proposed amendment SA 407 to the concurrent resolution S. Con. Res. 7, which sets the congressional budget for the United States Government for fiscal year 2025 and the appropriate budgetary levels for fiscal years 2026 through 2034.

  • The purpose of this amendment is to add a deficit-neutral reserve fund relating to protecting access to maternal and pediatric health care through Medicaid at the end of title III.

  • It aims to allow the Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate to revise committee allocations, aggregates, and other appropriate levels, and make adjustments to the pay-as-you-go ledger.

  • These changes are for legislation relating to access to health care, which may include protecting access to maternal and pediatric health care through Medicaid, as long as the legislation would not increase the deficit over the total period of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
