SA 225. Mr. RISCH 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 ASSESSING
THE CYBERSECURITY AND NATIONAL SECURITY RISKS
ASSOCIATED WITH THE USE ON THE ELECTRICAL GRID
IN THE UNITED STATES OF PRODUCTS AND COMPONENTS
THAT ARE MANUFACTURED BY FOREIGN COMPANIES AND
WOULD LEAVE THE UNITED STATES VULNERABLE TO
SURVEILLANCE AND INTERFERENCE BY FOREIGN
ADVERSARIES.
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
assessing the cybersecurity and national security risks
associated with the use on the electrical grid in the United
States of products and components that are manufactured by
foreign companies and would leave the United States
vulnerable to surveillance and interference by foreign
adversaries 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.
