The amendment is as follows: On page 2, line 10, after ``deficit'' strike all that follows and insert the following: ``(1) should require that those earning $1,000,000 or more per year make a more meaningful contribution to the deficit reduction effort; and (2) should not end Medicare as we know it.''
