S.Amdt. 435

Mrs. Shaheen, alongside Mr. Kaine and Mr. Gallego, submitted this amendment to the concurrent resolution setting forth the congressional budget for the United States Government for fiscal year 2025 and setting forth the appropriate budgetary levels for fiscal years 2026 through 2034.

What it Aims to Change or Add

The amendment adds a deficit-neutral reserve fund relating to preserving federal funding to States under Medicaid expansion at the end of title III.

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 changes apply to one or more bills, joint resolutions, amendments, amendments between the Houses, motions, or conference reports relating to preserving health care access for low-income Americans.

This may include preventing cuts to Medicaid programs in States made available under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, by the amounts provided in such legislation for those purposes, provided that such legislation would not increase the deficit over the period of the total of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
