Bill > HRes408

This Resolution establishes the rules for how the House of Representatives will consider a joint resolution, specifically H.J. Res. 64, which aims to disapprove of an agreement made by the President on July 19, 2015, concerning Iran's nuclear program. It waives all procedural objections to considering H.J. Res. 64 and allows it to be considered as read, also waiving objections to its specific provisions. The resolution sets a strict debate schedule, allocating ten hours equally among several key committees and a final hour for the Foreign Affairs Committee, with only one motion to recommit allowed before a final vote. Furthermore, it outlines a process for the House to automatically accept a Senate amendment to a related House Joint Resolution (H.J. Res. 61) if that amendment simply contains the text of H.J. Res. 64 as passed by the House, streamlining the legislative process for this particular disapproval measure.
