SA 2788. Mr. TILLIS submitted an amendment intended to be proposed by
him to the concurrent resolution S. Con. Res. 14, setting forth the
congressional budget for the United States Government for fiscal year
2022 and setting forth the appropriate budgetary levels for fiscal
years 2023 through 2031; which was ordered to lie on the table; as
follows:

At the end of title III, add the following:

SEC. 3__. DEFICIT-NEUTRAL RESERVE FUND RELATING DECLARING
THOSE ELIGIBLE FOR MEDICAID OR SUPPLEMENTAL
NUTRITION ASSISTANCE PROGRAM BENEFITS TO BE
``PUBLIC CHARGES'' AND THEREFORE INADMISSIBLE
FOR THOSE SEEKING PERMANENT RESIDENCY OR
PERMISSION TO IMMIGRATE.

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,
and make adjustments to the pay-as-you-go ledger, for one or
more bills, joint resolutions, amendments, amendments between
the Houses, motions, or conference reports relating to
declaring those eligible for Medicaid or Supplemental
Nutrition Assistance Program benefits to be ``public
charges'' and therefore inadmissible for those seeking
permanent residency or permission to immigrate, provided that
such legislation would not increase the deficit over either
the period of the total of fiscal years 2022 through 2026 or
the period of the total of fiscal years 2022 through 2031.
