SA 1914. Mr. MURPHY submitted an amendment intended to be proposed by him to the concurrent resolution H. Con. Res. 14, establishing the congressional budget for the United States Government for fiscal year 2025 and setting forth the appropriate budgetary levels for fiscal years 2026 through 2034; which was ordered to lie on the table; as follows: At the appropriate place, insert the following: SEC. ___. DEFICIT-NEUTRAL RESERVE FUND RELATING TO WHETHER THE PRESIDENT, OR ANY GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL, HAS UNILATERALLY SUBSTITUTED THEIR OWN FUNDING DECISIONS FOR THOSE OF THE CONGRESS. 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 impoundments, which may include legislation defining when the President, or other government officials, have violated the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974 (2 U.S.C. 621 et seq.), which requires the President to promptly report to the Congress all withholdings of budget authority and was established to prevent the President, and other government officials, from unilaterally substituting their own funding decisions for those of the Congress, by the amounts provided in such legislation for those purposes, provided that such legislation would not increase the deficit over the period of the total of fiscal years 2025 through 2034. ______
