Resolved, That at any time after the adoption of this resolution the Speaker
may, pursuant to clause 2(b) of rule XVIII, declare the House resolved into the
Committee of the Whole House on the state of the Union for consideration of the
bill (H.R. 5025) making appropriations for the Departments of Transportation and
Treasury, and independent agencies for the fiscal year ending September 30,
2005, and for other purposes. The first reading of the bill shall be dispensed
with. All points of order against consideration of the bill are waived. General
debate shall be confined to the bill and shall not exceed one hour equally
divided and controlled by the chairman and ranking minority member of the
Committee on Appropriations. 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 considered as read. 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 intervening motion except one motion to
recommit with or without instructions.
Attest:
Clerk.
