   Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 1950) to authorize 
 appropriations for the Department of State for the fiscal years 2004

  and the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 for security assistance for

    Resolved, That at any time after 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. 1950) to authorize 
appropriations for the Department of State for the fiscal years 2004 
and 2005, to authorize appropriations under the Arms Export Control Act 
and the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 for security assistance for 
fiscal years 2004 and 2005, 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 International Relations. 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 International Relations now printed in 
the bill modified by the amendments recommended by the Committees on 
Armed Services and Energy and Commerce also printed in the bill. That 
amendment in the nature of a substitute shall be considered as read. 
All points of order against the amendment in the nature of a substitute 
are waived. No amendment to that 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. Each amendment may be offered only in the order 
printed in the report (except as specified in section 3), 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 as specified in the report, 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 
printed in the report of the Committee on Rules or against amendments 
en bloc described in section 2 are waived.
    Sec. 2. It shall be in order at any time for the chairman of the 
Committee on International Relations or his designee to offer 
amendments en bloc consisting of amendments printed in the report of 
the Committee on Rules not earlier considered. Amendments en bloc 
offered pursuant to this section shall be considered as read, shall be 
debatable for 20 minutes equally divided and controlled by the chairman 
and ranking minority member of the Committee on International Relations 
or their designees, 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. The original proponent of an amendment included 
in such amendments en bloc may insert a statement in the Congressional 
Record immediately before the disposition of the amendments en bloc.
    Sec. 3. The Chairman of the Committee of the Whole may recognize 
for consideration of any amendment printed in the report of the 
Committee on Rules out of the order printed, but not sooner than one 
hour after the chairman of the Committee on International Relations or 
a designee prospectively announces from the floor a request to that 
effect.
    Sec. 4. 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.
