    Resolved, That at any time after 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. 1694) to require additional entities to be subject to the 
requirements of section 552 of title 5, United States Code (commonly referred to 
as the Freedom of Information Act), 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 amendments 
specified in this section and shall not exceed one hour equally divided and 
controlled by the chair and ranking minority member of the Committee on 
Oversight and Government Reform. After general debate the bill shall be 
considered for amendment under the five-minute rule. In lieu of the amendment in 
the nature of a substitute recommended by the Committee on Oversight and 
Government Reform now printed in the bill, it shall be in order to consider as 
an original bill for the purpose of amendment under the five-minute rule an 
amendment in the nature of a substitute consisting of the text of Rules 
Committee Print 115-14 modified by the amendment printed in part A of the report 
of the Committee on Rules accompanying this resolution. That amendment in the 
nature of a substitute shall be considered as read. All points of order against 
that amendment in the nature of a substitute are waived. No amendment to that 
amendment in the nature of a substitute shall be in order except those printed 
in part B of the report of the Committee on Rules. Each such amendment may be 
offered only in the order printed in the report, may be offered only by a Member 
designated in the report, shall be considered as read, shall be debatable for 
the time specified in the report equally divided and controlled by the proponent 
and an opponent, shall not be subject to amendment, and shall not be subject to 
a demand for division of the question in the House or in the Committee of the 
Whole. All points of order against such amendments 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. Any Member 
may demand a separate vote in the House on any amendment adopted in the 
Committee of the Whole to the bill or to the amendment in the nature of a 
substitute made in order as original text. 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.  It shall be in order at any time through the legislative day of 
April 29, 2017, for the Speaker to entertain motions that the House suspend the 
rules as though under clause 1 of rule XV. The Speaker or his designee shall 
consult with the Minority Leader or her designee on the designation of any 
matter for consideration pursuant to this section.
    Sec. 3.  The requirement of clause 6(a) of rule XIII for a two-thirds vote 
to consider a report from the Committee on Rules on the same day it is presented 
to the House is waived with respect to any resolution reported through the 
legislative day of April 29, 2017.
            Attest:

                                                                          Clerk.
