     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 the spread of animal diseases, which may include 
     prohibiting reductions to funding and staff (including 
     veterinarians) that monitor, respond to, control, mitigate, 
     and prevent the spread of highly pathogenic avian influenza, 
     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.
