[H. Res. 437 Engrossed in House (EH)]

                In the House of Representatives, U. S.,

                                                          May 24, 2007.
    Resolved,  That at any time after the adoption of this resolution it shall 
be in order to consider in the House the bill (H.R. 2317) to amend the Lobbying 
Disclosure Act of 1995 to require registered lobbyists to file quarterly reports 
on contributions bundled for certain recipients, and for other purposes. All 
points of order against consideration of the bill are waived except those 
arising under clause 9 or 10 of rule XXI. The amendment in the nature of a 
substitute recommended by the Committee on the Judiciary now printed in the 
bill, modified by the amendment printed in part A of the report of the Committee 
on Rules accompanying this resolution, shall be considered as adopted. The bill, 
as amended, shall be considered as read. All points of order against the bill, 
as amended, are waived. The previous question shall be considered as ordered on 
the bill, as amended, to final passage without intervening motion except: (1) 
one hour of debate equally divided and controlled by the chairman and ranking 
minority member of the Committee on the Judiciary; and (2) one motion to 
recommit with or without instructions.
    Sec. 2. Upon the adoption of this resolution, the Speaker may, pursuant to 
clause 2(b) of rule XVIII, declare the House resolved into the Committee of the 
Whole House on the state of the Union for consideration of the bill (H.R. 2316) 
to provide more rigorous requirements with respect to disclosure and enforcement 
of lobbying laws and regulations, 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 except those arising under clause 9 or 10 of rule XXI. 
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 the Judiciary. After general debate the bill shall be 
considered for amendment under the five-minute rule. It shall be in order to 
consider as an original bill for the purpose of amendment under the five-minute 
rule the amendment in the nature of a substitute recommended by the Committee on 
the Judiciary now printed in the bill. The committee amendment in the nature of 
a substitute shall be considered as read. All points of order against the 
committee amendment in the nature of a substitute are waived except those 
arising under clause 9 or 10 of rule XXI. Notwithstanding clause 11 of rule 
XVIII, no amendment to the committee amendment in the nature of a substitute 
shall be in order except those printed in part B of the report of the Committee 
on Rules. Each such amendment may be offered only in the order printed in the 
report, may be offered only by a Member designated in the report, shall be 
considered as read, shall be debatable for the time specified in the 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. All points of order 
against such amendments are waived except those arising under clause 9 or 10 of 
rule XXI. At the conclusion of consideration of the bill for amendment the 
Committee shall rise and report the bill to the House with such amendments 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 committee 
amendment in the nature of a substitute. The previous question shall be 
considered as ordered on the bill and amendments thereto to final passage 
without intervening motion except one motion to recommit with or without 
instructions.
    Sec. 3. During consideration of H.R. 2317 or H.R. 2316 pursuant to this 
resolution, notwithstanding the operation of the previous question, the Chair 
may postpone further consideration of either bill to such time as may be 
designated by the Speaker.
    Sec. 4. Subparagraph (3)(Q) of clause 5(a) of rule XXV is amended to read as 
follows: ``(Q) Free attendance at an event permitted under subparagraph (4).''.
            Attest:

                                                                          Clerk.
