What this amendment would do

SA 5055, submitted by Mr. Lujan, aims to add a section to title III of S. Con. Res. 33.

The purpose of this amendment is to create a deficit-neutral reserve fund to lower broadband costs for working families and prevent households from being priced out of essential internet access.

It intends to achieve this by:

  • Re-funding the Federal Communications Commission's Affordable Connectivity Program.
  • Allowing the Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate to revise committee allocations, aggregates, other levels, and the pay-as-you-go ledger for related legislation.

This is provided that the legislation does not increase the deficit between fiscal years 2026 through 2035.
