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 provides one motion to recommit with or

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

includes a waiver of the following: • Section 303 of the Congressional Budget Act, prohibiting

to be less than the level of total revenues for the first fiscal 

year or for the total of that first fiscal year and the ensuing
