The Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate
may revise the allocations of a committee or committees,

and make adjustments to the pay-as-you-go ledger, for one or
more bills, joint resolutions, amendments, amendments between

et seq.), and to ensure those refunds are processed
automatically within 30 days and paid with interest, by the
amounts provided in such legislation for those purposes,
