What this amendment would do

Mr. Bennet submitted this amendment, numbered SA 772, to the Senate budget resolution for fiscal year 2025. It deals with setting up a special money pool, known as a deficit-neutral reserve fund, to focus on protecting farmers and consumers in the United States.

What It Aims to Change or Add

  • It adds a new section to title III of the budget resolution.
  • It allows the Chairman of the Senate Committee on the Budget to change budget allocations and adjust the pay-as-you-go ledger for legislation that protects farmers and consumers.
  • It allows for changes related to prohibiting provisions of law that would decrease Federal spending on farm safety net programs or nutrition programs.
  • It strictly requires that any such legislation would not increase the deficit over the total period of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
