In the House of Representatives, U.S.,
June 27 (legislative day of June 26), 1996.
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 consider-
ation of the bill (H.R. 3675) making appropriations for
the Department of Transportation and related agencies
for the fiscal year ending September 30, 1997, and for
other purposes. The first reading of the bill shall be dis-
pensed with. Points of order against consideration of the
bill for failure to comply with section 401(a) of the Con-
gressional Budget Act of 1974 are waived. General debate
shall be confined to the bill and shall not exceed one hour
equally divided and controlled by the chairman and rank-

After general debate the bill shall be considered for

•HRES 460 EH
beginning with the colon on page 10, line 25, through
‘‘program’’ on page 11, line 3. Where points of order are
waived against part of a paragraph, points of order
against a provision in another part of such paragraph may
be made only against such provision and not against the
entire paragraph. The amendment printed in section 2 of
this resolution shall be considered as adopted in the House
and in the Committee of the Whole. During consideration
of the bill for further amendment, the Chairman of the
Committee of the Whole may accord priority in recognition
on the basis of whether the Member offering an amend-
ment has caused it to be printed in the portion of the Con-
gressional Record designated for that purpose in clause
6 of rule XXIII. Amendments so printed shall be consid-
ered as read. The Chairman of the Committee of the
Whole may postpone until a time during further consider-
ation in the Committee of the Whole a request for a re-
corded vote on any amendment. The Chairman of the
Committee of the Whole may reduce to not less than five
minutes the time for voting by electronic device on any
postponed question that immediately follows another vote
by electronic device without intervening business, provided
that the time for voting by electronic device on the first
in any series of questions shall be not less than fifteen
minutes. After the reading of the final lines of the bill,

a motion that the Committee of the Whole rise and report
the bill to the House with such amendments as may have
been adopted shall, if offered by the majority leader or
a designee, have precedence over a motion to amend. 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. The
previous question shall be considered as ordered on the
bill and amendments thereto to final passage without in-
tervening motion except one motion to recommit with or
without instructions.
