AI Summary

This Resolution sets forth the rules for considering three different bills in the House of Representatives. First, it allows for consideration of H.R. 37, a bill aimed at making technical corrections to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, which was enacted to regulate the financial industry after the 2008 financial crisis, with the goal of helping small and growing companies access capital and reducing regulatory burdens. Second, it provides for the consideration of H.R. 185, a bill designed to reform how federal agencies analyze and create new regulations and guidance documents, which are official interpretations or instructions from agencies. Finally, it outlines the process for considering H.R. 240, a bill making appropriations, or allocating funds, for the Department of Homeland Security for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2015. For all three bills, the resolution waives certain procedural objections, limits debate time, and specifies the conditions under which amendments can be offered and voted upon, generally streamlining the legislative process for these measures.
