                              R E P O R T

                       [To accompany H. Res. 366]

    The Committee on Rules, having had under consideration 
House Resolution 366, by a 8 to 4 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 the Senate 
amendment to H.J. Res. 59. The resolution makes in order a 
motion offered by the chair of the Committee on Appropriations 
or his designee that the House concur in the Senate amendment 
to H.J. Res. 59 with each of the two amendments printed in this 
report. The resolution provides one hour of debate on the 
motion equally divided and controlled by the chair and ranking 
minority member of the Committee on Appropriations. The 
resolution provides that the Senate amendment and the motion 
shall be considered as read. The resolution waives all points 
of order against consideration of the motion. The resolution 
provides that the question of adoption of the motion shall be 
divided between the two House amendments.
    Section 2 of the resolution provides for consideration of 
H.R. 3210, the Pay our Military Act, under a closed rule. The 
resolution provides 40 minutes of debate equally divided and 
controlled by the chair and ranking minority member of the 
Committee on Appropriations. The resolution waives all points 
of order against consideration of the bill and provides that it 
shall be considered as read. The resolution waives all points 
of order against provisions in the bill. The resolution 
provides one motion to recommit.

                         EXPLANATION OF WAIVERS

    Although the resolution waives all points of order against 
consideration of the motion, the Committee is not aware of any 
points of order. The waiver is prophylactic in nature.
    The waiver of all points of order against consideration of 
H.R. 3210 includes a waiver of the following:
     Clause 9(a)(2) of rule XXI, which prohibits 
consideration of a bill or joint resolution not reported by a 
committee, unless the chair of each committee of initial 
referral has caused a list of congressional earmarks, limited 
tax benefits, and limited tariff benefits in the bill or a 
statement that the proposition contains no congressional 
earmarks, limited tax benefits, or limited tariff benefits to 
be printed in the Congressional Record prior to its 
consideration. However, it is important to note that the chair 
of the Committee on Appropriations submitted an earmark 
statement to the House on September 28, 2013 for printing in 
the Congressional Record. The statement affirms that the bill 
does not contain any earmarks, limited tax benefits, or limited 
tariff benefits under the meaning of the rule.
     Clause 11 of rule XXI, prohibiting the 
consideration of a bill or joint resolution which has not been 
reported by a committee until the third calendar day (excluding 
Saturdays, Sundays, or legal holidays except when the House is 
in session on such a day) on which such measure has been 
available to Members, Delegates, and the Resident Commissioner.
    Although the resolution waives all points of order against 
provisions in H.R. 3210, the Committee is not aware of any 
points of order. The waiver is prophylactic in nature.
