Changes bill
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.
  1. Introduced
  2. Pending Consideration

What this amendment would do

SA 5309, submitted by Ms. Alsobrooks, aims to add a deficit-neutral reserve fund to the end of title III of S. Con. Res. 33.

The purpose of this amendment is to allow the Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate to make adjustments to:

  • Committee allocations
  • Aggregates
  • Other appropriate levels in the resolution
  • The pay-as-you-go ledger

These changes would apply to legislation, such as bills or amendments, that focuses on allowing for reduced gasoline prices for consumers. This includes efforts to lower costs at the pump and address what contributes to high fuel prices.

The amendment specifies that this can be done as long as the legislation does not increase the deficit from fiscal year 2026 through 2035.
