        designee, and in the House of Representatives, by the Speaker, 
        or the Speaker's designee not later than 60 days after the date

        shall be referred to the appropriate committees of Congress 
        under paragraph (2). If the joint resolution is not introduced 
        in accordance with the preceding sentence, then any member of 
        Congress may introduce such legislation in their respective 
        House of Congress beginning on the date that is the 5th

                appropriate committee of jurisdiction in the Senate and 
                the House of Representatives. A committee to which the 
                joint resolution is referred under this paragraph may 
                review and comment on such legislation, may report such 
                legislation to the respective House, and may not amend 
                such legislation.
                    (B) Reporting.--Not later than 30 calendar days 
                after the introduction of the joint resolution, each 
                Committee of Congress to which the joint resolution was 
                referred shall report the legislation.
                    (C) Discharge of committee.--If a committee to 
                which a joint resolution is referred has not reported 
                such legislation at the end of 30 calendar days after 
                its introduction or at the end of the first day after 
                there has been reported to the House a joint resolution 
                involved a joint resolution, whichever is earlier, such 
                committee shall be deemed to be discharged from further 
                consideration of such legislation and such legislation 
                shall be placed on the appropriate calendar of the 
                House involved.
    (b) Expedited Procedure.--
            (1) Consideration.--
                    (A) In general.--Not later than 30 calendar days 
                after the date on which a committee has reported a 
                joint resolution or has been discharged from 
                consideration of a joint resolution, the majority 
                leader of the Senate, or the majority leader's 
                designee, or the Speaker of the House of 
                Representatives, or the Speaker's designee, shall move 
                to proceed to the consideration of the joint 
                resolution. It shall also be in order for any Member of 
                the Senate or the House of Representatives, 
                respectively, to move to proceed to the consideration 
                of the joint resolution at any time after the 
                conclusion of such 5-day period.
                    (B) Motion to proceed.--A motion to proceed to the 
                consideration of a joint resolution is highly 
                privileged in the House of Representatives and is 
                privileged in the Senate and is not debatable. The 
                motion is not subject to amendment or to a motion to 
                postpone consideration of the joint resolution. If the 
                motion to proceed is agreed to, the Senate or the House 
                of Representatives, as the case may be, shall 
                immediately proceed to consideration of the joint 
                resolution without intervening motion, order, or other 
                business, and the joint resolution shall remain the 
                unfinished business of the Senate or the House of 
                Representatives, as the case may be, until disposed of.
                    (C) Limited debate.--Debate on the joint resolution 
                and on all debatable motions and appeals in connection 
                therewith shall be limited to not more than 10 hours, 
                which shall be divided equally between those favoring 
                and those opposing the joint resolution. A motion 
                further to limit debate on the joint resolution is in 
                order and is not debatable. All time used for 
                consideration of the joint resolution, including time 
                used for quorum calls (except quorum calls immediately 
                preceding a vote) and voting, shall come from the 10 
                hours of debate.
                    (D) Amendments.--No amendment to the joint 
                resolution shall be in order in the Senate and the 
                House of Representatives.
                    (E) Vote on final passage.--Immediately following 
                the conclusion of the debate on the joint resolution, 
                the vote on final passage of the joint resolution shall 
                occur.
                    (F) Other motions not in order.--A motion to 
                postpone consideration of the joint resolution, a 
                motion to proceed to the consideration of other 
                business, or a motion to recommit the review joint 
                resolution is not in order. A motion to reconsider the 
                vote by which the joint resolution is agreed to or not 
                agreed to is not in order.
            (2) Consideration by other house.--If, before the passage 
        by one House of the joint resolution that was introduced in 
        such House, such House receives from the other House a joint 
        resolution as passed by such other House--
                    (A) the joint resolution of the other House shall 
                not be referred to a committee and may only be 
                considered for final passage in the House that receives 
                it under subparagraph (C);
                    (B) the procedure in the House in receipt of the 
                joint resolution of the other House, shall be the same 
                as if no joint resolution had been received from the 
                other House; and
                    (C) notwithstanding subparagraph (B), the vote on 
                final passage shall be on the joint resolution of the 
                other House.
            (3) Disposition.--Upon disposition of a joint resolution 
        that is received by one House from the other House, it shall no 
        longer be in order to consider the joint resolution that was 
        introduced in the receiving House.
    (c) Rules of the Senate and the House of Representatives.--This 
section is enacted--
            (1) as an exercise of the rulemaking power of the Senate 
        and the House of Representatives, respectively, and is deemed 
        to be part of the rules of each House, respectively, but 
        applicable only with respect to the procedure to be followed in 
        that House in the case of the joint resolution, and it 
        supersedes other rules only to the extent that it is 
        inconsistent with such rules; and
            (2) with full recognition of the constitutional right of 
        either House to change the rules (so far as they relate to the 
        procedure of that House) at anytime, in the same manner, and to 
        the same extent as in the case of any other rule of that House.
    (d) Fallback Provision.--If the Senate and the House of 
Representatives fail to act within one year from the date of 
introduction, the joint resolution takes effect.
