It is simply the deficit savings account, so when the money isn't spent, that is where it goes. The deficit savings account is not an outlay. It is simply not being spent in the first place. The Acting CHAIR. Does any other Member wish to be heard on the point of order? If not, the Chair is prepared to rule. To be considered en bloc pursuant to clause 2(f) of rule XXI, an amendment must not propose to increase the levels of budget authority or outlays in the bill. Because the amendment offered by the gentleman from Colorado proposes a net increase in the level of outlays in the bill, as argued by the chairman of the Subcommittee on Appropriations, it may not avail itself of clause 2(f) to address portions of the bill not yet read. The point of order is sustained. The amendment is not in order. Parliamentary Inquiries
