What this amendment would do

Mr. Bennet submitted an amendment, numbered SA 768, to the concurrent resolution S. Con. Res. 7. The purpose of this amendment is to add a deficit-neutral reserve fund related to protecting the ability of family farmers or ranchers to employ a legal, stable, and reliable immigrant workforce.

This amendment aims to allow the Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate to revise committee allocations, aggregates, and other appropriate levels in the resolution. It also allows the Chairman to make adjustments to the pay-as-you-go ledger for legislation relating to immigrant farm labor. This includes protecting the ability of family farmers or ranchers to employ a legal, stable, and reliable immigrant workforce, as long as the legislation does not increase the deficit over the total period of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
