                        TITLE II--BUDGET PROCESS

SEC. 201. PAY-AS-YOU-GO POINT OF ORDER IN THE SENATE.

    (a) Point of Order.--
            (1) In general.--It shall not be in order in the Senate to 
        consider any direct spending or revenue legislation that would 
        increase the on-budget deficit or cause an on-budget deficit 
        for any 1 of 4 applicable time periods as measured in 
        paragraphs (5) and (6).
            (2) Applicable time periods.--For purposes of this 
        subsection, the term ``applicable time period'' means any 1 of 
        the 4 following periods:
                    (A) The current fiscal year.
                    (B) The budget year.
                    (C) The period of the 5 fiscal years following the 
                current fiscal year.
                    (D) The period of the 5 fiscal years following the 
                5 fiscal years referred to in subparagraph (C).
            (3) Direct spending legislation.--For purposes of this 
        subsection and except as provided in paragraph (4), the term 
        ``direct spending legislation'' means any bill, joint 
        resolution, amendment, motion, or conference report that 
        affects direct spending as that term is defined by, and 
        interpreted for purposes of, the Balanced Budget and Emergency 
        Deficit Control Act of 1985.
            (4) Exclusion.--For purposes of this subsection, the terms 
        ``direct spending legislation'' and ``revenue legislation'' do 
        not include--
                    (A) any concurrent resolution on the budget; or
                    (B) any provision of legislation that affects the 
                full funding of, and continuation of, the deposit 
                insurance guarantee commitment in effect on the date of 
                enactment of the Budget Enforcement Act of 1990.
            (5) Baseline.--Estimates prepared pursuant to this 
        subsection shall--
                    (A) use the baseline surplus or deficit used for 
                the most recently adopted concurrent resolution on the 
                budget; and
                    (B) be calculated under the requirements of 
                subsections (b) through (d) of section 257 of the 
                Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 
                1985 for fiscal years beyond those covered by that 
                concurrent resolution on the budget.
            (6) Prior surplus.--If direct spending or revenue 
        legislation increases the on-budget deficit or causes an on-
        budget deficit when taken individually, it must also increase 
        the on-budget deficit or cause an on-budget deficit when taken 
        together with all direct spending and revenue legislation 
        enacted since the beginning of the calendar year not accounted 
        for in the baseline under paragraph (5)(A), except that direct 
        spending or revenue effects resulting in net deficit reduction 
        enacted in any bill pursuant to a reconciliation instruction 
        since the beginning of that same calendar year shall never be 
        made available on the pay-as-you-go ledger and shall be 
        dedicated only for deficit reduction.
    (b) Supermajority Waiver and Appeals.--
            (1) Waiver.--This section may be waived or suspended in the 
        Senate only by the affirmative vote of three-fifths of the 
        Members, duly chosen and sworn.
            (2) Appeals.--Appeals in the Senate from the decisions of 
        the Chair relating to any provision of this section shall be 
        limited to 1 hour, to be equally divided between, and 
        controlled by, the appellant and the manager of the bill or 
        joint resolution, as the case may be. An affirmative vote of 
        three-fifths of the Members of the Senate, duly chosen and 
        sworn, shall be required to sustain an appeal of the ruling of 
        the Chair on a point of order raised under this section.
    (c) Determination of Budget Levels.--For purposes of this section, 
the levels of new budget authority, outlays, and revenues for a fiscal 
year shall be determined on the basis of estimates made by the Senate 
Committee on the Budget.
    (d) Sunset.--This section shall expire on September 30, 2017.

to this section. Before the Presiding Officer rules on such a point of 
order, any Senator may move to waive such a point of order as it 
applies to some or all of the provisions against which the point of 
order was raised. Such a motion to waive is amendable in accordance 
with rules and precedents of the Senate. After the Presiding Officer 
rules on such a point of order, any Senator may appeal the ruling of 
the Presiding Officer on such a point of order as it applies to some or 
all of the provisions on which the Presiding Officer ruled.

stricken, and the Senate shall proceed to consider the question of 
whether the Senate shall recede from its amendment and concur with a 
further amendment, or concur in the House amendment with a further 
amendment, as the case may be, which further amendment shall consist of 
only that portion of the conference report or House amendment, as the 
case may be, not so stricken. Any such motion shall be debatable. In 
any case in which such point of order is sustained against a conference 
report (or Senate amendment derived from such conference report by 
operation of this subsection), no further amendment shall be in order.

                TITLE III--RESERVE FUNDS AND ADJUSTMENTS

SEC. 301. DEFICIT-NEUTRAL RESERVE FUND FOR SCHIP LEGISLATION.

    (a) Priority.--The Senate establishes the following priorities and 
makes the following findings:
            (1) The Senate shall make the enactment of legislation to 
        reauthorize the State Children's Health Insurance Program 
        (SCHIP) a top priority for the remainder of fiscal year 2007, 
        during the first session of the 110th Congress.
            (2) Extending health care coverage to the Nation's 
        vulnerable uninsured children is an urgent priority for the 
        Senate.
            (3) SCHIP has proven itself a successful program for 
        covering previously uninsured children.
            (4) More than 6 million children are enrolled in this 
        landmark program, which has enjoyed broad bipartisan support in 
        Congress, among our Nation's governors, and within state and 
        local governments.
            (5) SCHIP reduces the percentage of children with unmet 
        health care needs.
            (6) Since SCHIP was created, enormous progress has been 
        made in reducing disparities in children's coverage rates.
            (7) Uninsured children who gain coverage through SCHIP 
        receive more preventive care and their parents report better 
        access to providers and improved communications with their 
        children's doctors.
            (8) Congress has a responsibility to reauthorize SCHIP 
        before the expiration of its current authorization.
    (b) Reserve Fund.--The Chairman of the Senate Committee on the 
Budget may revise the allocations, aggregates, and other appropriate 
levels in this resolution for a bill, joint resolution, amendment, 
motion, or conference report that provides up to $50,000,000,000 for 
reauthorization of the State Children's Health Insurance Program 
(SCHIP), if such legislation maintains coverage for those currently 
enrolled in SCHIP, continues efforts to reach uninsured children who 
are already eligible for SCHIP or Medicaid but are not enrolled, and 
supports States in their efforts to move forward in covering more 
children, by the amounts provided in that legislation for those 
purposes up to $20,000,000,000 over the total of fiscal years 2007 
through 2012, provided that such legislation would not increase the 
deficit over the total of the period of fiscal years 2007 through 2012. 
Among the policy changes that could be considered to achieve offsets to 
the cost of reauthorizing the State Children's Health Insurance Program 
and expanding coverage for children is an increase in the tobacco 
products user fee rate with all revenue generated by such increase 
dedicated to such reauthorization and expansion.
