  SA 1600. Mr. COONS (for himself, Ms. Warren, and Ms. Blunt Rochester) 
submitted an amendment intended to be proposed by him 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 PROTECTING 
                   SOCIAL SECURITY FROM DOGE.

       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 Social Security, which may include stopping the 
     Department of Governmental Efficiency's efforts to inhibit 
     Social Security beneficiaries from accessing their hard-
     earned benefits by cutting the budget of the Social Security 
     Administration, closing Social Security Administration 
     offices, firing Social Security Administration employees, or 
     forcing beneficiaries to go to unreasonable lengths to access 
     their benefits, 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.
                                 ______
