Amendment· HAMDTHAMDT 62 (101st)passed

An amendment to make the proposed Resolution Funding Corporation an on-budget government corporation that would borrow directly from the Treasury to raise funds for dealing with insolvent thrifts. The amendment would exempt the Corporation's borrowing from Gramm-Rudman provisions of the budget, so that off-setting spending cuts or revenue increases would not be required. The Banking Committee provisions would make the Corporation an off-budget government-sponsored corporation funded by the sale of its own bonds.
