To end the mobile phone welfare program.

SA 338. Mr. VITTER submitted an amendment intended to be proposed by
him to the concurrent resolution S. Con. Res. 8, setting forth the
congressional budget for the United States Government for fiscal year
2014, revising the appropriate budgetary levels for fiscal year 2013,
and setting forth the appropriate budgetary levels for fiscal years
2015 through 2023; which was ordered to lie on the table, as follows:

At the appropriate place, insert the following:

SEC. __. DEFICIT-NEUTRAL RESERVE FUND FOR ENDING SUBSIDIES
FOR MOBILE PHONE SERVICE.

The Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate
may revise the allocations of a committee or committees,
aggregates, and other appropriate levels in this resolution
for one or more bills, joint resolutions, amendments,
amendments between houses, motions, or conference reports
that would prohibit the Universal Service Fund from
subsidizing commercial mobile service, without raising new
revenue, by the amounts provided in such legislation for
those purposes, provided that such legislation would not
increase the deficit over either the period of the total of
fiscal years 2013 through 2018 or the period of the total of
fiscal years 2013 through 2023.
