What this amendment would do

As an analyst keeping an eye out for everyday folks, let us break down what Senator Warren and Senator Markey are trying to do here with Amendment 751.

The purpose of this amendment is to create a deficit-neutral reserve fund. In plain English, it gives the Chairman of the Senate Budget Committee the power to change budget numbers and ledgers for future legislation.

Here is what it aims to change or add to the bill:

  • Adds a new section at the end of title III relating to maintaining Federal support for Massachusetts-based health care providers.
  • Allows the Budget Committee Chairman to adjust allocations and pay-as-you-go ledgers for bills or amendments dealing with this support, as long as the legislation does not increase the deficit from fiscal year 2025 through 2034.
