  SA 1705. Mr. LUJAN 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 DIVESTMENT 
                   OF ASSETS THAT MAY CAUSE CONFLICTS OF INTEREST.

       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 
     enhancing Government ethics, which may include legislation 
     that prohibits the funding or subsidization of individuals 
     serving as special Government employees (as defined in 
     section 202 of title 18, United States Code) in the executive 
     branch who refuse to divest themselves of any asset that may 
     cause a conflict of interest, 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.
