RESOLUTION
Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 518) to des-
ignate certain lands in the California Desert as wilder-
ness, to establish the Death Valley and Joshua Tree
National Parks and the Mojave National Monument, 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 consider-
HRES 422 RH
ation of the bill (H.R. 518) to designate certain lands in
the California Desert as wilderness, to establish the Death
Valley and Joshua Tree National Parks and the Mojave
National Monument, 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 one hour
equally divided and controlled by the chairman and rank-
ing minority member of the Committee on Natural Re-
sources. 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 Natural Resources now printed in the bill. The commit-
tee amendment in the nature of a substitute shall be con-
sidered by title rather than by section. Each title of the
committee amendment in the nature of a substitute shall
be considered as read. Points of order against the commit-
tee amendment in the nature of a substitute for failure
to comply with clause 5(a) of rule XXI are waived. No
amendment to the committee amendment in the nature
of a substitute shall be in order unless printed in the por-
tion of the Congressional Record designated for that pur-
pose in clause 6 of rule XXIII before the beginning of con-
HRES 422 RH
sideration of the bill. The amendment caused to be printed
in the Record by Representative LaRocco of Idaho (relat-
ing to an East Mojave Preserve) may amend portions of
the bill not yet read for amendment. 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 committee amendment in the nature of a substitute.
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. After passage of H.R. 518, it shall
be in order to take from the Speaker’s table the bill
S. 21 and to consider the Senate bill in the House. All
points of order against the Senate bill and against its con-
sideration are waived. It shall be in order to move to strike
all after the enacting clause of the Senate bill and to insert
in lieu thereof the provisions of H.R. 518 as passed by
the House. All points of order against that motion are
waived. If the motion is adopted and the Senate bill, as
amended, is passed, then it shall be in order to move that
the House insist on its amendments to S. 21 and request
a conference with the Senate thereon.
