RESOLUTION
Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 1905) making

purposes.
Resolved, That at any time after the adoption of this
resolution the Speaker may, pursuant to clause 1(b) of

of the Whole House on the state of the Union for consider-
ation of the bill (H.R. 1905) making appropriations for

HRES 171 RH
September 30, 1996, and for other purposes. The first
reading of the bill shall be dispensed with. General debate
shall be confined to the bill and shall not exceed one hour
equally divided and controlled by the chairman and rank-
ing minority member of the Committee on Appropriations.
After general debate the bill shall be considered for
amendment under the five-minute rule. The bill shall be
considered by title rather than by paragraph. Each title
shall be considered as read. Points of order against provi-
sions in the bill for failure to comply with clause 2 or 6
of rule XXI are waived except as follows: beginning with
‘‘: Provided further’’ on page 6, line 6, through ‘‘such
transfer’’ on line 13. Where points of order are waived
against part of a paragraph, points of order against a pro-
vision in another part of such paragraph may be made
only against such provision and not against the entire
paragraph. Before consideration of any other amendment
it shall be in order to consider the amendment printed in
the report of the Committee on Rules accompanying this
resolution if offered by Representative Shuster of Penn-
sylvania or his designee. That amendment shall be consid-
ered as read, shall be debatable for ten minutes equally
divided and controlled by the proponent and an opponent,
shall not be subject to amendment, and shall not be sub-
ject to a demand for division of the question in the House
HRES 171 RH
or in the Committee of the Whole. All points of order
against that amendment are waived. After disposition of
that amendment, the provisions of the bill as then per-
fected shall be considered as original text. During further
consideration of the bill for amendment, the Chairman of
the Committee of the Whole may accord priority in rec-
ognition on the basis of whether the Member offering an
amendment has caused it to be printed in the portion of
the Congressional Record designated for that purpose in
clause 6 of rule XXIII. Amendments so printed shall be
considered as read. At the conclusion of consideration of
the bill for amendment the Committee shall rise and re-
port the bill to the House with such amendments as may
have been adopted. The previous question shall be consid-
ered as ordered on the bill and amendments thereto to
final passage without intervening motion except one mo-
tion to recommit with or without instructions.
