     technologies and nuclear power to prevent blackouts and 
     improve electric reliability, 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 2022 through 2026 or the 
     period of the total of fiscal years 2022 through 2031.
