by him to the concurrent resolution S. Con. Res. 14, setting forth the

At the appropriate place in title IV, add the following:

SEC. 4___. POINT OF ORDER AGAINST THE RESCISSION OF A TITLE
42 EXPULSION ORDER.

(a) Point of Order.--It shall not be in order in the Senate
to consider any bill, joint resolution, motion, amendment,
amendment between the Houses, or conference report that
rescinds an order issued by the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention, pursuant to sections 362 and 365 of the
Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 265 and 268),
authorizing the Surgeon General to prohibit the introduction
of certain persons into the United States from countries in
which an outbreak of a communicable disease, such as COVID-19
exists to protect the public from contracting such disease
(commonly known as a ``title 42 expulsion order'').
(b) Waiver and Appeal.--Subsection (a) may be waived or
suspended in the Senate only by an affirmative vote of three-
fifths of the Members, duly chosen and sworn. An affirmative
vote of three-fifths of the Members of the Senate, duly
chosen and sworn, shall be required to sustain an appeal of
the ruling of the Chair on a point of order raised under
subsection (a).
