  SA 434. Mrs. SHAHEEN submitted an amendment intended to be proposed 
by her to the concurrent resolution S. Con. Res. 7, setting forth the 
congressional budget for the United States Government for fiscal year 
2025 and setting forth the appropriate budgetary levels for fiscal 
years 2026 through 2034; 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 
                   PREVENTING A REDUCTION IN POSTAL SERVICE FOR 
                   RURAL AMERICA.

       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 
     preventing a reduction in postal service in the rural United 
     States, which may include preventing the closure or 
     consolidation of postal processing and distribution centers 
     if such action would negatively impact mail delivery or would 
     result in there no longer being any processing and 
     distribution centers located in a State that, prior to such 
     closure or consolidation, has 1 or more processing and 
     distribution centers, 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 2034.
                                 ______
