Bill Summary
Providing for consideration of the joint resolution (S.J. Res. 68) to direct the removal of United States Armed Forces from hostilities against the Islamic Republic of Iran that have not been authorized by Congress; providing for consideration of the Senate amendment to the bill (H.B. 2486) to reauthorize mandatory funding programs for historically Black colleges and universities and other minority-serving institutions; providing for consideration of the bill (H.B. 6172) to amend the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978 to prohibit the production of certain business records, and for other purposes; and for other purposes. This resolution sets forth the rule for consideration of S.J.Res. 68 (demanding the removal of unauthorized Armed Forces from hostilities in Iran), the Senate amendment to H.B. 2486 (Fostering Undergraduate Talent by Unlocking Resources for Education Act), and H.B. 6172 (USA FREEDOM Reauthorization Act of 2020). Certain proceedings may take place on any legislative day from March 13, 2020, through March 22, 2020.

AI Summary
This Resolution establishes the rules for debating and voting on three key pieces of legislation in the House of Representatives: a joint resolution (S.J. Res. 68) to remove U.S. armed forces from hostilities against Iran unless authorized by Congress, a bill (H.B. 2486) to reauthorize funding for historically Black colleges and universities and other minority-serving institutions, and a bill (H.B. 6172) to amend the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978 (FISA) concerning business records. The Resolution outlines specific time limits for debate, waives certain procedural objections, and allows for flexibility in scheduling proceedings between March 13 and March 22, 2020, including granting the Speaker authority to suspend rules and consider reports from the Rules Committee on the same day they are presented.
