What this amendment would do

Mr. Kaine submitted amendment SA 639 to the concurrent resolution on the budget for fiscal year 2025.

The purpose of this amendment is to create a deficit-neutral reserve fund relating to supporting Federal employees who are veterans.

What It Aims to Change or Add

  • It adds a new section to title III concerning a deficit-neutral reserve fund for supporting Federal employees who are veterans.
  • It allows the Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate to revise committee allocations, aggregates, and other appropriate levels in the resolution.
  • It allows the Chairman to make adjustments to the pay-as-you-go ledger for legislation relating to supporting Federal employees who are veterans and protecting them against mass reclassifications, removals, and furloughs.
  • It ensures that these adjustments apply only if the legislation does not increase the deficit over the total period of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
