SA 515. Mr. VITTER (for himself, Mr. Cruz, and Mr. Inhofe) submitted
an amendment intended to be proposed by him to the concurrent
resolution S. Con. Res. 11, setting forth the congressional budget for
the United States Government for fiscal year 2016 and setting forth the
appropriate budgetary levels for fiscal years 2017 through 2025; which
was ordered to lie on the table; as follows:

At the appropriate place, insert the following:

SEC. ___. SPENDING-NEUTRAL RESERVE FUND RELATING TO REQUIRING
THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO ALLOW STATES TO OPT
OUT OF COMMON CORE WITHOUT PENALTY.

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 the Houses, motions, or conference reports
relating to prohibiting the Federal Government from
mandating, incentivizing, or coercing States to adopt the
Common Core State Standards or any other specific academic
standards, instructional content, curricula, assessments, or
programs of instruction and allowing States to opt out of the
Common Core State Standards without penalty, by the amounts
provided in such legislation for those purposes, provided
that such legislation would not raise new revenue and would
not increase the deficit over either the period of the total
of fiscal years 2016 through 2020 or the period of the total
of fiscal years 2016 through 2025.
