Bill > HRes350

This Resolution sets forth the rules for considering a bill, H.R. 6, aimed at speeding up the creation and availability of new medical treatments and technologies. It allows the Speaker of the House to bring the bill to the floor for debate and amendment, waiving all procedural objections that might otherwise prevent its consideration. The resolution limits general debate to one hour and specifies that amendments will be considered under a "five-minute rule," a standard procedure for debating and voting on proposed changes. Importantly, it replaces the committee's proposed version of the bill with a different text and waives further points of order against the bill as amended, allowing only specific, pre-approved amendments to be offered under strict time limits and with designated proponents and opponents. Finally, after all amendments are considered, the bill will be put to a final vote, with only one opportunity for a motion to send it back to committee.
