Bill > HRes667

This Resolution establishes the rules for considering several important bills in the House of Representatives, specifically outlining how debate and amendments will be handled to ensure an orderly process. It allows the Speaker to bring up H.B. 5743, which deals with authorizing funding for fiscal year 2013 for intelligence activities, the Community Management Account (a fund for intelligence agencies), and the Central Intelligence Agency Retirement and Disability System, by moving the House into a Committee of the Whole for debate and amendment, waiving all objections to its consideration and limiting general debate to one hour. Furthermore, the Resolution permits the Speaker to bring up other bills for consideration in the Committee of the Whole, including H.B. 5854 (military construction, Department of Veterans Affairs, and related agencies), H.B. 5855 (Department of Homeland Security), and H.B. 5325 (energy and water development and related agencies), all for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2013, also waiving objections to their consideration and limiting general debate to one hour, with specific rules for amendments and final passage.
