Bill > HRes391

This Resolution establishes the rules for considering two bills in the House of Representatives: H.R. 992, which aims to modify provisions within the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act concerning federal assistance for "swaps entities" (companies that engage in financial derivatives contracts), and H.R. 2374, which seeks to enhance protections for retail customers under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. For both bills, the resolution waives all procedural objections that could prevent their consideration or passage, limits debate time, and allows for a single motion to send the bill back to committee before a final vote. It also outlines specific procedures for amendments and debate for H.R. 2374, including a particular amendment offered by Representative George Miller. Additionally, the resolution addresses procedures for considering joint resolutions under a specific section of the Continuing Appropriations Act, 2014, and sets rules for House proceedings during a defined period in late October and early November 2013, including how the Speaker can appoint members to perform the duties of the Chair.
