What this amendment would do

This is amendment SA 904, submitted by Mr. Kim. As folks who care about how our government works and keeping our elected officials accountable, we need to know what this is all about in plain English.

  • The purpose of this amendment is to create a deficit-neutral reserve fund relating to ensuring Federal research funds to institutions of higher education are exclusively allocated to designated institutions.
  • It aims to allow the Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate to revise budget allocations and make adjustments for legislation related to research and development.
  • Specifically, it targets legislation that ensures Federal scientific research funds to institutions of higher education are exclusively allocated to designated institutions and that the funding is not delayed, withheld, or redirected except as provided by an Act of Congress.
  • To make the cut, any such legislation must not increase the deficit over the total period of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
