AI Summary

This resolution provides a structured process for considering three legislative items in the House of Representatives. First, it allows for consideration of a joint resolution (H.J. Res. 24) to disapprove a Department of Energy rule regarding energy conservation standards for walk-in coolers and freezers, with one hour of debate and a motion to recommit. Second, it permits consideration of another joint resolution (H.J. Res. 75) to disapprove a Department of Energy rule about energy conservation standards for commercial refrigerators and freezers, also with one hour of debate and a motion to recommit. Third, the resolution sets the stage for considering H.R. 1048, a bill to amend the Higher Education Act by strengthening disclosure requirements for foreign gifts and contracts at educational institutions and prohibiting certain contracts with foreign entities. The bill will have one hour of general debate, be considered under the five-minute amendment rule, and use a specific amendment in the nature of a substitute from the Rules Committee. The resolution waives various procedural points of order and limits further amendments, ultimately allowing for a final vote on the bill with a potential motion to recommit.
