119-SCONRES-7 — An original 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 this amendment would do

  • Mr. Welch submitted amendment SA 461 to the concurrent resolution setting the congressional budget for the United States Government for fiscal year 2025 and for fiscal years 2026 through 2034.

  • The purpose of this amendment is to add a deficit-neutral reserve fund relating to ensuring presidential compliance in the termination of inspectors general.

What It Aims to Change or Add

  • It allows 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 Federal programs, which may include ensuring the President complies with chapter 4 of title 5, United States Code (commonly known as the Inspector General Act of 1978) and any subsequent amendments.

  • The rule for this is that the legislation would not increase the deficit over the total period of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
