     SEC. ___. POINT OF ORDER AGAINST LEGISLATION THAT FAILS TO 
                   EXTEND THE SOLVENCY OF SOCIAL SECURITY AND 
                   MEDICARE BY MAKING THE WEALTHY CONTRIBUTE A 
                   FAIRER SHARE.

       (a) Point of Order.--It shall not be in order in the Senate 
     to consider any revenue, Social Security, or Medicare bill, 
     joint resolution, motion, amendment, amendment between the 
     Houses, or conference report that fails to extend the 
     solvency of Social Security and Medicare by making the 
     wealthy contribute a fairer share of taxes.
       (b) Waiver and Appeal.--Subsection (a) may be waived or 
     suspended in the Senate only by an affirmative vote of three-
     fifths of the Members, duly chosen and sworn. An affirmative 
     vote of three-fifths of the Members of the Senate, duly 
     chosen and sworn, shall be required to sustain an appeal of 
     the ruling of the Chair on a point of order raised under 
     subsection (a).
