para.57.14  providing for the consideration of h.r. 483

  Ms. PRYCE, by direction of the Committee on Rules, called up the 
following resolution (H. Res. 130):

       Resolved, That at any time after the adoption of this 
     resolution the Speaker may, pursuant to clause 1(b) of rule 
     XXIII, declare the House resolved into the Committee of the 
     Whole House on the state of the Union for consideration of 
     the bill (H.R. 483) to amend title XVIII of the Social 
     Security Act to permit medicare select policies to be offered 
     in all States, 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 shall not exceed one hour equally 
     divided and controlled by the chairman and ranking minority 
     member of the Committee on Commerce. After general debate the 
     bill shall be considered for amendment under the five-minute 
     rule. In lieu of any committee amendment 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 H.R. 1391. That 
     amendment in the nature of a substitute shall be considered 
     as read. No amendment to that amendment in the nature of a 
     substitute shall be in order except one further amendment in 
     the nature of a substitute which may be offered only by 
     Representative Dingell of Michigan or his designee, shall be 
     considered as read, shall be debatable for one hour equally 
     divided and controlled by the proponent and an opponent, and 
     shall not be subject to amendment. At the conclusion of 
     consideration of the bill for amendment the Committee shall 
     rise and report the bill to the House with such amendment 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 any 
     amendment thereto to final passage without intervening motion 
     except one motion to recommit with or without instructions.
       Sec. 2. Subject to clause 2(l)(5) of rule XI, the Committee 
     on Commerce may file a report to the House on H.R. 483 at any 
     time.

  When said resolution was considered.
  Ms. PRYCE submitted the following amendment which was agreed to:

       Page 2, line 3, by inserting after ``bill'' the words ``for 
     failure to comply with clause (2)(1)(6) of rule XI.''
  After debate,
  On motion of Ms. PRYCE, the previous question was ordered on the 
resolution, as amended, to its adoption or rejection.
  The question being put, viva voce,
  Will the House agree to said resolution, as amended?
