Bill > HRes600

This Resolution sets forth the rules for considering a bill, H.R. 4281, which aims to temporarily extend federal programs related to highways, highway safety, motor carrier safety, and public transit. These programs are funded by the Highway Trust Fund, and the extension is intended to be in place until a longer-term law reauthorizing these programs is enacted. The Resolution waives all procedural objections that could prevent the bill from being considered or that could challenge specific parts of the bill, allowing for a streamlined process. It also limits debate to one hour, equally divided between the majority and minority party leaders on the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, and allows for only one motion to recommit the bill before a final vote. Additionally, it waives a rule that typically requires a two-thirds vote to consider a report from the Rules Committee on the same day it's presented, specifically for resolutions related to extending surface transportation authority.
