Bill Summary
Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 2240) to require the Attorney General to develop reports relating to violent attacks against law enforcement officers, and for other purposes; providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 2243) to amend title 18, United States Code, to improve the Law Enforcement Officer Safety Act and provisions relating to the carrying of concealed weapons by law enforcement officers, and for other purposes; and providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 2255) to allow Federal law enforcement officers to purchase retired service weapons, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This resolution provides a structured process for considering three specific bills related to law enforcement safety and reporting. Specifically, the resolution allows the House to consider H.R. 2240 (which requires the Attorney General to develop reports on violent attacks against law enforcement officers), H.R. 2243 (which aims to improve the Law Enforcement Officer Safety Act and provisions about concealed weapons for law enforcement), and H.R. 2255 (which would allow federal law enforcement officers to purchase their retired service weapons). The resolution waives typical procedural obstacles like points of order against the bills, automatically adopts committee amendments, and considers the bills as already read. It also sets specific debate parameters, allowing one hour of debate split equally between the Judiciary Committee chair and ranking minority member, and permits one motion to recommit. This type of resolution is a procedural mechanism to expedite consideration of legislation by establishing special rules for debate and voting on specific bills.
