At the end of title III, add the following:

PROTECTING UNITED STATES NATIONAL SECURITY AND
GLOBAL LEADERSHIP.
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
protecting United States national security and global
leadership, which may include legislation to help facilitate
the safe transport or relocation of individuals to the United
States who have been approved under the Afghan special
immigrant visa program, and to ensuring the continuation of
the United States Refugee Assistance Program, which is a
lifesaving tool to resettle the most vulnerable refugees,
including individuals at risk of sexual violence, human
trafficking, or violence based on religious minority, by the
amounts provided in such legislation for those purposes,
provided that such legislation would not increase the deficit
over the period of the total of fiscal years 2025 through
