Bill > HRes1576

This Resolution sets forth the rules for considering two bills in the House of Representatives: H.R. 1449, which aims to increase the frequency of lease sales for geothermal energy development and ensure replacement sales, and H.R. 9495, which would postpone tax deadlines and reimburse late fees for U.S. citizens held hostage or wrongfully detained abroad, and would also terminate tax-exempt status for organizations supporting terrorism. For H.R. 1449, the Resolution allows the Speaker to bring it up for debate and amendment, waiving all points of order against its consideration and specific provisions, limiting general debate to one hour, and restricting amendments to those printed in the accompanying Rules Committee report. For H.R. 9495, the Resolution also waives points of order against its consideration, deems a proposed amendment from the Ways and Means Committee as adopted, and limits debate to one hour, with one motion to recommit allowed before final passage.
