                               RESOLUTION

 
Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 358) to amend the Public 
  Health Service Act, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 
  1974, and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to protect consumers in 
             managed care plans and other health coverage.

    Resolved, That immediately upon the adoption of this resolution the 
House shall without intervention of any point of order resolve into the 
Committee of the Whole House on the state of the Union for 
consideration of the bill (H.R. 358) to amend the Public Health Service 
Act, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, and the 
Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to protect consumers in managed care 
plans and other health coverage. The first reading of the bill shall be 
dispensed with. General debate shall be confined to the bill and shall 
not exceed 120 minutes, with 60 minutes of debate to be equally divided 
and controlled by the chairman and ranking minority member of the 
Committee on Commerce, 30 minutes of debate to be equally divided and 
controlled by the chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee 
on Ways and Means and 30 minutes of debate to be equally divided and 
controlled by the chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee 
on Education and the Workforce. After general debate the bill shall be 
considered for amendment under the five-minute rule. The bill shall be 
considered by title rather than by section. Each title shall be 
considered as read. During consideration of the bill for amendment, the 
Chairman of the Committee of the Whole may accord priority in 
recognition on the basis of whether the member offering an amendment 
has caused it to be printed in the portion of the Congressional Record 
designated for that purpose in clause 8 in rule XVIII. At the 
conclusion of consideration of the bill for amendment, the Committee 
shall rise and report the bill to the House with such amendments as may 
have been adopted. The previous question shall be considered as ordered 
on the bill and amendments thereto to final passage without intervening 
motion, except one motion to recommit with or without instructions.
    Sec. 2. If the Committee of the Whole rises and reports that it has 
come to no resolution on the bill, then on the next legislative day the 
House shall, immediately after the third daily order of business under 
clause 1 of rule XIV, resolve into the Committee of the Whole for 
further consideration of the bill.
                                 <all>
