to consider a concurrent resolution on the budget for the
budget year or any amendment, amendment between Houses,
motion, or conference report thereon whose revenue and outlay
assumptions do not assume that Social Security and Medicare
will be solvent for the seventy-five years following the year
in which the budget resolution is considered.
(b) Waiver and Appeal.--Subsection (a) may be waived or
suspended in the Senate only by an affirmative vote of three-
fifths of the Members, duly chosen and sworn. An affirmative
vote of three-fifths of the Members of the Senate, duly
chosen and sworn, shall be required to sustain an appeal of
the ruling of the Chair on a point of order raised under
subsection (a).
