PROVIDING FOR CONSIDERATION OF THE BILL (H.R. 1264) TO AMEND THE 

NATIONAL FLOOD INSURANCE ACT OF 1968 TO PROVIDE FOR THE NATIONAL FLOOD INSURANCE PROGRAM TO MAKE AVAILABLE 

MULTIPERIL COVERAGE FOR DAMAGE RESULTING FROM WINDSTORMS

Ms. SLAUGHTER, from the Committee on Rules, 

submitted the following 

R E P O R T 

[To accompany H. Res. 1549] 

The Committee on Rules, having had under consideration House 

Resolution 1549, by a nonrecord vote, report the same to the House 

with the recommendation that the resolution be adopted. 

SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS OF THE RESOLUTION

The resolution provides for consideration of H.R. 1264, the ‘‘Multiple Peril Insurance Act of 2009,’’ under a closed rule. The resolution provides one hour of debate equally divided and controlled by 

the chair and ranking minority member of the Committee on Financial Services. 

The resolution waives all points of order against consideration of 

the bill except those arising under clause 9 or 10 of rule XXI. The 

resolution provides that the bill shall be considered as read. The 

resolution waives all points of order against the bill. This waiver 

does not affect the point of order available under clause 9 of rule 

XXI (regarding earmark disclosure). Finally, the resolution provides one motion to recommit with or without instructions. 

EXPLANATION OF WAIVERS

Although the rule waives all points of order against consideration 

of the bill (except for those arising under clause 9 or 10 of rule 

XXI), and all points of order against provisions in the bill, the Committee is not aware of any points of order against the bill or its 

consideration. The waivers are prophylactic.
