What this amendment would do

Mrs. Shaheen submitted amendment SA 437 to the concurrent resolution for the fiscal year 2025 congressional budget. The purpose of this amendment is to add a new point of order to the bill that protects funding for child care and early education.

What It Aims to Change

  • It aims to make it out of order in the Senate to consider any bill, joint resolution, motion, amendment, amendment between the Houses, or conference report that reduces funding for child care or early childhood education.

  • It requires an affirmative vote of three-fifths of the chosen and sworn members of the Senate to waive or suspend this rule, or to sustain an appeal of the ruling of the Chair.
