A resolution expressing the sense of the Senate that the United States should reduce and maintain the Federal unified budget deficit at or below 3 percent of gross domestic product.

This resolution states that the Senate believes Congress should work to shrink the federal budget deficit — the gap between what the government spends and what it takes in — to 3% or less of the country's total economic output by the end of the 2030 fiscal year. It also says that once that goal is reached, Congress should keep working to reduce the deficit even further, with the ultimate aim of having a balanced budget where spending does not exceed revenue.
