119-SCONRES-33 — A concurrent resolution setting forth the congressional budget for the United States Government for fiscal year 2026 and setting forth the appropriate budgetary levels for fiscal years 2027 through 2035.

What this amendment would do

SA 5218, submitted by Mr. HEINRICH, aims to add a section to title IV of S. Con. Res. 33.

The purpose of this amendment is to create a point of order in the Senate. This means it would stop the Senate from considering any:

  • Bill
  • Joint resolution
  • Motion
  • Amendment
  • Amendment between the Houses
  • Conference report

That would subsidize uneconomic coal-fired power plants.

To waive or suspend this rule, or to sustain an appeal of the Chair's ruling on this point of order, an affirmative vote of three-fifths of the Members of the Senate is required.
