the House with the recommendation that the resolution be 
adopted.

                SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS OF THE RESOLUTION

    The resolution provides for consideration of H.R. 4660, 
making appropriations for the Departments of Commerce and 
Justice, Science, and Related Agencies for the fiscal year 
ending September 30, 2015, and for other purposes, under an 
open rule. The resolution provides one hour of general debate 
equally divided and controlled by the chair and ranking 
minority member of the Committee on Appropriations. The 
resolution waives all points of order against consideration of 
the bill. The resolution waives points of order against 
provisions in the bill for failure to comply with clause 2 of 
rule XXI. The resolution provides that the bill shall be 
considered for amendment under the five-minute rule. The 
resolution authorizes the Chair to accord priority in 
recognition to Members who have pre-printed their amendments in 
the Congressional Record. The resolution provides one motion to 
recommit with or without instructions.
    Section 2 of the resolution provides for consideration of 
H.R. 4435, the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal 
Year 2015, under a structured rule. The resolution provides one 
hour of general debate equally divided and controlled by the 
chair and ranking minority member of the Committee on Armed 
Services. The resolution waives all points of order against 
consideration of the bill. The resolution provides that the 
amendment in the nature of a substitute consisting of the text 
of Rules Committee Print 113-44 shall be considered as adopted 
and the bill, as amended, shall be considered as read. The 
resolution waives all points of order against provisions in the 
bill, as amended. The resolution makes in order only those 
further amendments printed in this report. Each such amendment 
may be offered only in the order printed in this report, may be 
offered only by a Member designated in this report, shall be 
considered as read, shall be debatable for the time specified 
in this 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. The resolution waives 
all points of order against the amendments printed in this 
report. The resolution provides that no further consideration 
of the bill shall be in order except pursuant to a subsequent 
order of the House.

                         EXPLANATION OF WAIVERS

    The waiver of all points of order against consideration of 
H.R. 4660 includes a waiver of clause 4(c) of rule XIII, which 
prohibits consideration of a general appropriations bill 
reported by the Committee on Appropriations from being 
considered in the House until the third calendar day on which 
printed hearings of the Committee on Appropriations thereon 
have been available to Members.
    The resolution includes a waiver of points of order against 
provisions in H.R. 4660 for failure to comply with clause 2 of 
rule XXI, which prohibits unauthorized appropriations or 
legislative provisions in an appropriations bill. This waiver 
is necessary because the bill contains unauthorized 
appropriations and legislative provisions.
    The waiver of all points of order against consideration of 
H.R. 4435 includes waivers of:
    --Section 306 of the Congressional Budget Act, which 
prohibits consideration of legislation within the jurisdiction 
of the Committee on the Budget unless reported by the Committee 
on the Budget;
    --Clause 3(e)(1) of rule XIII (Ramseyer), requiring a 
committee report accompanying a bill amending or repealing 
statutes to show, by typographical device, parts of statute 
affected, and;
    --Clause 4(a) of rule XIII, which prohibits consideration 
of legislation in the House until the third calendar day on 
which each report of a committee on that measure or matter has 
been available to Members, Delegates and the Resident 
Commissioner. While the Committee on Armed Services filed its 
report on May 13, 2014, the Committee requested authority to 
file a supplemental report, which includes a more comprehensive 
cost estimate from the Congressional Budget Office. The 
Committee on Armed Services filed its supplemental report on 
May 19, 2014.
    The waiver of all points of order against provisions in 
H.R. 4435, as amended, includes a waiver of clause 4 of rule 
XXI, prohibiting appropriations in a legislative bill, because 
section 2861 contains language that makes private funds 
deposited into a Treasury account available for certain 
purposes without further appropriation.
    Although the resolution waives all points of order against 
the amendments printed in this report, the Committee is not 
aware of any points of order. The waiver is prophylactic in 
nature.

          SUMMARY OF THE AMENDMENTS TO H.R. 4435 MADE IN ORDER

    1. Blumenauer (OR): Authorizes the Secretary of the Air 
Force to procure not more than 10 AESA radar upgrades for the 
Air National Guard F-15C/D aircraft, which is offset by cuts to

establish either a security monitoring duty roster program that 
would authorize certain DoD personnel to openly carry a firearm

installation for personal protection. Ensures that commanders 
at all levels would have control and oversight over the 
authorizations. (10 minutes)
    3. Sanchez, Loretta (CA): Gives DOD authority to transfer 
funds to nuclear nonproliferation, not only to weapons 
activities and naval reactors. Currently, the bill language 
limits fund transfers to only weapons activities and naval 
reactors. (10 minutes)
    4. Lamborn (CO): Requires the Department of Defense to 
establish a plan with the Afghan government for reimbursing 
contractors for illegal taxes. (10 minutes)

to expand various programs to include combatting wildlife 
trafficking and poaching. (10 minutes)
    6. Daines (MT), Cramer, Kevin (ND), Lamborn (CO), Lummis 
(WY): Strikes subsection (c) of Section 1634 of the reported 
NDAA, which terminates in 2021 the requirement that ICBM silos 
remain in at least warm status. (10 minutes)
    7. Lamborn (CO): Adds a Sense of Congress establishing that 
national security is the top priority for the federal 
government and should be the top priority for the use of public
