    The resolution provides for the consideration of H.R. 2216, 
Making Supplemental Appropriations for the Fiscal Year Ending 
September 30, 2001, under an open rule. The rule provides one 
hour of general debate equally divided and controlled by the 
chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee on 
Appropriations.
    The rule waives all points of order against consideration 
of the bill. The rule provides that the amendment printed in 
part A of this report shall be considered as adopted. The rule 
also waives clause 2 of rule XXI (prohibiting unauthorized 
appropriations or legislative provisions in a general 
appropriations bill) against provisions in the bill, as 
amended. The bill will be considered for amendment by 
paragraph.
    The rule makes in order the amendment printed in part B of 
this report, which may be offered only by a Member designated 
in the report and only at the appropriate point in the reading 
of the bill, shall be considered as read, 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 rule waives all points of order against the amendment 
printed in part B of this report.
    The rule waives points of order during consideration of the 
bill against amendments for failure to comply with clause 2(e) 
of rule XXI (prohibiting non-emergency designated amendments to 
be offered to an appropriations bill containing an emergency 
designation).
    Members who have pre-printed their amendments in the 
Congressional Record prior to their consideration will be given 
priority in recognition to offer their amendments if otherwise 
consistent with House rules. Finally, the rule provides for one 
motion to recommit, with or without instructions.

Administration Training and Employment Services rescission.

Part B--Summary of amendment made in order

to implement the 0.38% across-the-board cut in Fiscal Year 
2000.

(preceding the short title) the following:

hereby rescinded an amount equal to 0.33 percent of the new 
discretionary budget authority provided (or obligation limit

Government.
  (2) Paragraph (1) shall not apply to budget accounts included 
under major functional category 050 (national defense).
  (b) Restrictions.--In carrying out the rescissions made by 
subsection (a)(1), no program, project, or activity of any 
department, agency, instrumentality, or entity may be reduced 
by more than 15 percent (with ``programs projects, and 
activities'' as delineated in the appropriation Act or 
accompanying report for the relevant account, or for accounts 
and items not included in appropriation Acts, as delineated in 
the President's most recently submitted budget).
  (c) Report.--The Director of the Office of Management and 
Budget shall include in the President's budget submission for 
fiscal year 2003 a report specifying the reductions made to 
each account pursuant to this section.
