Don't be played by this back the blue amendment - there's a reason that every senator voted for it. It is a toothless gesture of virtue signaling.
It creates a deficit-neutral reserve fund at the discretion of the executive branch to spend federal surplus dollars on anything related to law enforcement (be it better equipment and training, or classes in critical race theory).
The fund only comes into force when there is an overall budget surplus at the federal level - and our government shows no interest in a balanced budget let alone a surplus. This is nothing more than political theater.

So they mean "never".
That makes it even funnier
