  SA 699. Mr. WHITEHOUSE submitted an amendment intended to be proposed 
by him to the concurrent resolution S. Con. Res. 11, setting forth the 
congressional budget for the United States Government for fiscal year 
2016 and setting forth the appropriate budgetary levels for fiscal 
years 2017 through 2025; which was ordered to lie on the table; as 
follows:

       At the appropriate place, insert the following:

     SEC. ___. DEFICIT-NEUTRAL RESERVE FUND RELATING TO 
                   LEGISLATION TO PROTECT AND PRESERVE OCEANS AND 
                   COASTS.

       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 
     for one or more bills, joint resolutions, amendments, 
     amendments between the Houses, motions, or conference reports 
     relating to the protection and preservation of oceans and 
     coasts, which may include measures that address the harms 
     caused by human-induced climate change, including 
     acidification, sea level rise, warmer ocean temperatures, and 
     shifting fish and shellfish habitats, 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 2016 through 2020 or the 
     period of the total of fiscal years 2016 through 2025.
