Bill > HRes370

This Resolution sets the rules for how the House of Representatives will consider H.B. 1938, a bill aimed at speeding up the approval process for the Keystone XL oil pipeline. It outlines that the House will go into a "Committee of the Whole" (a procedural step where all members can participate in debate and amendment) to discuss the bill, with a limited time for general debate divided among specific committees. The resolution also waives certain procedural objections, known as "points of order," that could otherwise delay or block the bill's progress, and specifies that only certain pre-approved amendments will be allowed for consideration, with strict time limits and restrictions on further amendments to those amendments. Finally, it establishes that after amendments are considered, the bill will move directly to a final vote, with only one opportunity for a motion to recommit (send it back to committee) before that final vote.
