  SA 1444. Ms. BLUNT ROCHESTER (for herself and Mr. Bennet) submitted 
an amendment intended to be proposed by her to the concurrent 
resolution H. Con. Res. 14, establishing 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 appropriate place, insert the following:

     SEC. ___. DEFICIT-NEUTRAL RESERVE FUND RELATING TO 
                   PROHIBITING TARIFFS AND TRADE PRACTICES THAT 
                   EXACERBATE THE HOUSING AFFORDABILITY CRISIS.

       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 
     housing affordability, which may include legislation 
     prohibiting tariffs and trade practices that exacerbate the 
     housing affordability crisis by increasing home-building 
     costs through tariffs on raw materials and components in the 
     home-building process, 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.
