107TH CONGRESS REPORT " ! HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 1st Session 107–158

PROVIDING FOR CONSIDERATION OF H.R. 2590, TREASURY

AND GENERAL GOVERNMENT APPROPRIATIONS ACT, 2002

JULY 24, 2001.—Referred to the House Calendar and ordered to be printed

Mr. LINDER, from the Committee on Rules,

submitted the following

REPORT

[To accompany H. Res. 206]

The Committee on Rules, having had under consideration House

Resolution 206, 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. 2590, the Treasury and General Government Appropriations Act, 2002, 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, and provides that the bill

shall be considered for amendment by paragraph.

The rule provides that the amendments printed in this report

shall be considered as adopted. The rule waives points of order

against provisions in the bill, as amended, for failure to comply

with clause 2 of rule XXI (prohibiting unauthorized or legislative

provisions in a general appropriations bill).

The rule waives all points of order against the amendment printed in the Congressional Record and numbered 5, which may be offered only by Representative Smith of New Jersey or his designee

and only at the appropriate point in the reading of the bill and

shall be considered as read.

The rule allows the Chairman of the Committee of the Whole to

accord priority in recognition to Members who have preprinted

their amendments in the Congressional Record. Finally, the rule

provides one motion to recommit with or without instructions.

The waiver of all points of order against consideration of the bill

includes a waiver of clause 4 of rule XIII (requiring a three-day layover of the committee report) because the report was not filed until

2

Monday, July 23, and the bill may be considered on the floor as

early as Wednesday, July 25. The waiver also includes a waiver of

section 306 of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 (prohibiting

consideration of legislation within the Budget Committee’s jurisdiction, unless reported by the Budget Committee), because Title III

includes a provision that falls within the jurisdiction of the Budget

Committee that has not been reported by that committee.

The waiver of clause 2 of rule XXI is necessary because there are

several unauthorized and legislative provisions in the bill, which

are listed in the report accompanying H.R. 2590 (H. Rept. 107–

152). The description of provisions relating to the transfers of funds

and descriptions of provisions constituting legislation on an appropriations bill and unauthorized provisions can also be found in the

report.
