SA 542. Mr. JOHNSON (for himself and Mr. Tuberville) submitted an
amendment intended to be proposed by him to the concurrent resolution
S. Con. Res. 5, setting forth the congressional budget for the United
States Government for fiscal year 2021 and setting forth the
appropriate budgetary levels for fiscal years 2022 through 2030; 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 TO
PROTECTING AMERICAN TAXPAYERS FROM THE COSTS
ASSOCIATED WITH CANCELLING CONTRACTS RELATING
TO BORDER SECURITY.

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
protecting American taxpayers and the United States border,
which may include prohibiting the cancellation of contracts
for physical barriers and other border security measures for
which funds already have been obligated, 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 2021 through
2025 or the period of the total of fiscal years 2021 through
2030.
