Res. 676) providing for authority to initiate litigation for actions by the President or other executive branch officials inconsistent with their duties under the Constitution of the United States; providing for consideration of the bill (H.B. 935) to amend the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act and the Federal Water Pollution Control Act to clarify Congressional intent regarding the regulation of the use of pesticides in or near navigable waters, and for other purposes; and providing for proceedings during the period from August 1, 2014, through September 5, 2014.

AI Summary

This Resolution sets the rules for considering two important legislative items in the House of Representatives: H. Res. 676, which would grant the House authority to sue the President or other executive branch officials if they act unconstitutionally, and H.R. 935, a bill to clarify existing laws (the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act and the Federal Water Pollution Control Act) regarding the regulation of pesticides near navigable waters. The Resolution outlines specific procedures for debate and voting on these items, waiving certain procedural objections to ensure they can be considered and voted upon efficiently. Additionally, it establishes rules for House proceedings during a specific period from August 1 to September 5, 2014, including how the House will conduct its business and adjourn during this time.
