Bill > HRes281

This Resolution sets the rules for how the House of Representatives will consider H.B. 1585, a bill to reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act of 1994, which is a law aimed at combating domestic violence and sexual assault. Specifically, it allows the Speaker of the House to bring the bill to the floor for debate and amendment. The resolution waives certain procedural objections that could prevent the bill from being considered, limits general debate to one hour, and establishes a specific process for proposing and voting on amendments. It also outlines how the bill will be handled after amendments are considered, including the possibility of a final vote on the bill as amended.
