Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 1804) to improve learning 
and teaching by providing a national framework for education reform; to 
 promote the research, consensus building, and systemic changes needed 
    to ensure equitable education opportunities and high levels of

  framework for reauthorization of all Federal education programs; to 
promote the development and adoption of a voluntary national system of 
      skill standards and certifications; and for other purposes.

    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. 1804) to improve learning 
and teaching by providing a national framework for education reform; to 
promote the research, consensus building, and systemic changes needed 
to ensure equitable educational opportunities and high levels of 
educational achievement for all American students; to provide a 
framework for reauthorization of all Federal education programs; to 
promote the development and adoption of a voluntary national system of 
skill standards and certifications; and for other purposes. The first 
reading of the bill shall be dispensed with. General debate shall be 
confined to the bill and the amendments made in order by this 
resolution and shall not exceed eighty minutes equally divided and 
controlled by the chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee 
on Education and Labor. After general debate the bill shall be 
considered for amendment under the five-minute rule. In lieu of the 
amendment in the nature of a substitute recommended by the Committee on 
Education and Labor now printed in the bill, 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. 3210. The amendment in the nature of a substitute 
shall be considered as read. No amendment to the amendment in the 
nature of a substitute shall be in order except those printed in the 
report of the Committee on Rules accompanying this resolution and 
amendments en bloc described in section 2 of this resolution. Except as 
specified in section 2, each 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 (except 
that pro forma amendments for the purpose of debate may be offered by 
the chairman or ranking minority member of the Committee on Education 
and Labor), and shall not be subject to a demand for division of the 
question in the House or in the Committee of the Whole. 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 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 amendments thereto to final passage without intervening 
motion except one motion to recommit with or without instructions.
    Sec. 2. It shall be in order at any time for the chairman of the 
Committee on Education and Labor or a designee to offer amendments en 
bloc consisting of amendments printed in the report of the Committee on 
Rules accompanying this resolution or germane modifications thereof. 
Amendments en bloc shall be considered as read except that 
modifications shall be reported. Amendments en bloc shall be debatable 
for twenty minutes equally divided and controlled by the chairman and 
ranking minority member of the Committee on Education and Labor, 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 amendments en bloc are waived. The original 
proponent of an amendment included in amendments en bloc may insert a 
statement in the Congressional Record immediately before the 
disposition of the amendments en bloc.
