What this amendment would do

As folks looking out for your best interests and keeping our elected officials accountable, let us break down what this paperwork actually says in plain English. Ms. Warren, along with Mr. Markey, put forward this amendment to set up a specific financial reserve fund.

What It Aims to Change

  • The amendment adds a new section to the end of title III relating to protecting Federal funding for the Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority.

  • It allows the Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate to change financial allocations and adjustments for certain bills or amendments as long as that legislation does not increase the deficit over the total of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
