At the appropriate place, insert the following:

MISSISSIPPI RIVER.
The Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate
may revise the allocations of a committee or committees,

for one or more bills, joint resolutions, amendments,
amendments between the Houses, motions, or conference reports

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 2016
through 2020 or the period of the total of fiscal years 2016
