  SA 204. Mr. SCOTT, of South Carolina 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 appropriate place in title IV, add the following:

     SEC. 4___. POINT OF ORDER AGAINST GIVING GREATER WEIGHT TO 
                   THE INTERESTS OF TEACHER LABOR ORGANIZATIONS 
                   THAN THE EDUCATIONAL NEEDS OF CHILDREN ACROSS 
                   THE UNITED STATES.

       (a) Point of Order.--It shall not be in order in the Senate 
     to consider any bill, joint resolution, motion, amendment, 
     amendment between the Houses, or conference report that 
     allocates funding for COVID-19 related emergency relief for 
     elementary or secondary schools in a manner that fails to 
     provide for reopening elementary and secondary schools for 
     in-person learning and, in turn, gives greater weight to the 
     interests of teacher labor organizations than the educational 
     needs of children across the United States.
       (b) Waiver and Appeal.--Subsection (a) may be waived or 
     suspended in the Senate only by an affirmative vote of three-
     fifths of the Members, duly chosen and sworn. 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 
     subsection (a).
       (c) Sunset.--This section shall cease to have force or 
     effect on December 31, 2022.
                                 ______
