Summary

The Senate resolution calls on Congress to set a fiscal target that reduces the federal budget deficit to no more than 3 percent of gross domestic product by the end of fiscal year 2030, and to keep working toward a balanced budget afterward. It asks the President to propose budgets that follow this path, and it directs Senate committees and the CBO to help monitor progress. The measure is non‑binding but signals bipartisan concern about rising debt and its impact on the economy and national security.
