SA 35. Mr. HAGERTY 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
CONSTRUCTION OF PHYSICAL BARRIERS AS EFFECTIVE
SECURITY MEASURES.
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 the
construction of physical barriers, such as walls or fencing,
where security measures are necessary, given the
effectiveness of physical barriers as evidenced by their
current use around the United States Capitol complex and the
decrease in illegal southern border crossings in recent
years, 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.
