[From the U.S. Government Publishing Office]
[H. Res. 546 Engrossed in House (EH)]

                 In the House of Representatives, U.S.,

                                                         July 12, 2000.
    Resolved, That at any time after the adoption of this resolution the Speaker 
may, pursuant to clause 2(b) of rule XVIII, declare the House resolved into the 
Committee of the Whole House on the state of the Union for consideration of the 
bill (H.R. 4811) making appropriations for foreign operations, export financing, 
and related programs for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2001, and for 
other purposes. The first reading of the bill shall be dispensed with. All 
points of order against consideration of the bill are waived. General debate 
shall be confined to the bill and shall not exceed one hour equally divided and 
controlled by the chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee on 
Appropriations. After general debate the bill shall be considered for amendment 
under the five-minute rule. When the reading for amendment reaches section 587, 
that section shall be considered as read. Points of order against provisions in 
the bill for failure to comply with clause 2 of rule XXI are waived except as 
follows: beginning with ``: Provided'' on page 11, line 23, through page 12, 
line 8; page 80, lines 18 through 24; page 121, line 1, through page 122, line 
12. Where points of order are waived against part of a paragraph, points of 
order against a provision in another part of such paragraph may be made only 
against such provision and not against the entire paragraph. Before 
consideration of any other amendment to section 587, it shall be in order to 
consider, and to dispose of, an amendment to strike that section. 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 of rule XVIII. 
Amendments so printed shall be considered as read. The Chairman of the Committee 
of the Whole may: (1) postpone until a time during further consideration in the 
Committee of the Whole a request for a recorded vote on any amendment; and (2) 
reduce to five minutes the minimum time for electronic voting on any postponed 
question that follows another electronic vote without intervening business, 
provided that the minimum time for electronic voting on the first in any series 
of questions shall be 15 minutes. During consideration of the bill, points of 
order against amendments for failure to comply with clause 2(e) of rule XXI are 
waived. 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.
            Attest:

                                                                          Clerk.
