106TH CONGRESS
1ST SESSION
H. RES. 350
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives with respect to private
companies involved in the trafficking of baby body parts for profit.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
NOVEMBER 2, 1999
Mr. TANCREDO (for himself, Mr. SMITH of New Jersey, and Mr. PITTS) sub-
mitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on
Commerce
RESOLUTION
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives with
respect to private companies involved in the trafficking
of baby body parts for profit.
Whereas the National Institutes of Health Revitalization Act
of 1993 effectively lifted the ban on federally funded re-
search involving the transplantation of baby body parts,
and such Act made it a Federal felony for any person to
knowingly, for ‘‘valuable consideration,’’ purchase or sell
baby body parts (with a term of imprisonment of up to
10 years and with fines of up to $250,000 in the case
of an individual and $500,000 in the case of an organiza-
tion);
HRES 350 IH
Whereas private companies have sought to meet the demand
by both public and private research facilities by providing
baby body parts;
Whereas the definition of ‘‘valuable consideration’’ under the
National Institutes of Health Revitalization Act of 1993
does not include reasonable payments associated with the
transportation, implantation, processing, preservation,
quality control, or storage of baby body parts; and
Whereas private companies appear to believe that the defini-
tion of ‘‘valuable consideration’’ allows them to cir-
cumvent Federal law and avoid felony charges with impu-
nity while trafficking in baby body parts for profit: Now,
therefore, be it
Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Rep-
resentatives that the Congress should exercise oversight
responsibilities and conduct hearings, and take appro-
priate steps if necessary, concerning private companies
that are involved in the trafficking of baby body parts for
profit.

Resolved, That at any time after the adoption of this res-
olution the Speaker may, pursuant to clause 2(b) of rule

Whole House on the state of the Union for consideration of
the bill (H.R. 2389) to restore stability and predictability to
the annual payments made to States and counties containing
National Forest System lands and public domain lands man-
aged by the Bureau of Land Management for use by the
counties for the benefit of public schools, roads, and other

waived. General debate shall be confined to the bill and shall

chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee on
Agriculture. After general debate the bill shall be considered
for amendment under the five-minute rule. In lieu of the

•HRES 352 EH
original bill for the purpose of amendment under the five-
minute rule the amendment in the nature of a substitute
printed in the Congressional Record and numbered 1 pursu-
ant to clause 8 of rule XVIII, modified by the amendments
printed in the report of the Committee on Rules accom-
panying this resolution. That amendment in the nature of a
substitute shall be considered as read. All points of order
against that amendment in the nature of a substitute are
waived. During consideration of the bill for amendment, the
Chairman of the Committee of the Whole may accord priority
in recognition 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 8 of rule XVIII. Amendments so printed shall be con-
sidered as read. The Chairman of the Committee of the
Whole may: (1) postpone until a time during further consid-
eration in the Committee of the Whole a request for a re-
corded vote on any amendment; and (2) reduce to five min-
utes the minimum time for electronic voting on any post-
poned question that follows another electronic vote without
intervening business, provided that the minimum time for
electronic voting on the first in any series of questions shall
be 15 minutes. 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 adopt-
•HRES 352 EH
ed. 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.
Attest:
Clerk.
