What this amendment would do

Mrs. Shaheen submitted SA 422, which is an amendment intended to be proposed to the concurrent resolution S. Con. Res. 7 for the fiscal year 2025 budget.

Purpose and Changes

  • The purpose of the amendment is to add a deficit-neutral reserve fund relating to policing and preventing fraud, price gouging, and algorithmic price discrimination at the end of title III.

  • It aims to allow the Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate to revise allocations, aggregates, and other appropriate levels in the resolution.

  • It allows adjustments to the pay-as-you-go ledger for legislation relating to policing and preventing fraud, price gouging, and algorithmic price discrimination.

  • The changes may include supporting programs and funds across the Department of Justice, Federal Trade Commission, or other agencies to use their authority to prevent and punish such activities.

  • These activities cover fields including housing, banking, financial services, consumer goods and services, employment, or communications, provided the legislation does not increase the deficit over the total of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
