AI Summary
This Resolution sets the rules for the House of Representatives to consider three specific legislative items. First, it allows for the consideration of H.R. 140, a bill aimed at preventing federal employees from using their official positions to advocate for censoring viewpoints, with specific time limits for debate and a streamlined amendment process. Second, it permits the consideration of H.J. Res. 27, a joint resolution that would disapprove a rule from the Army Corps of Engineers and the Environmental Protection Agency concerning the definition of "Waters of the United States," also with waived points of order and limited debate. Third, it allows for the consideration of S. 619, a bill requiring the Director of National Intelligence to declassify information about the origin of COVID-19, again with waived points of order and controlled debate. Finally, it outlines a specific procedure for handling a potential presidential veto of House Joint Resolution 30, postponing further action until a later date.
