Bill > HRes1423

This Resolution sets the rules in the House of Representatives for debating and voting on four separate legislative measures. First, it provides for one hour of debate on H.R. 139, a bill that proposes making daylight saving time permanent, meaning clocks would no longer be turned back an hour in the autumn. Second, it governs the floor consideration of H.R. 8595, a national security and Department of State appropriations bill providing federal funding for the 2027 fiscal year, allowing general debate, restricting amendments to those pre-approved by the House Committee on Rules, and directing the Clerk to attach the text of a separate previously passed Senate bill, S. 1383, to it before final transmission. Third, it allows for the consideration of H.R. 9237, a bill aimed at improving benefits and administrative operations for military veterans through the Department of Veterans Affairs (the federal executive department responsible for veterans' healthcare and benefits programs). Finally, the Resolution establishes the debate parameters for H.R. 1181, which is a financial measure prohibiting payment card networks (such as credit card companies) and related entities from using specific merchant category codes—standard classification codes used by the payment industry to categorize types of businesses—that specifically identify firearms retailers separately from general merchandise or sporting goods stores.
