AI Summary

This Resolution establishes the rules for considering three specific legislative items in the House of Representatives concerning Iran's nuclear program. Firstly, it allows for the consideration of House Resolution 411, which asserts that the President has not followed Section 2 of the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act of 2015, a law requiring congressional review of international nuclear agreements. Secondly, it permits the consideration of House Bill 3461, which would formally approve the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), the international agreement on Iran's nuclear program signed in Vienna on July 14, 2015. Finally, it allows for the consideration of House Bill 3460, which aims to temporarily halt, until January 21, 2017, the President's power to lift or alter sanctions related to Iran's nuclear program as part of any agreement. For all three items, the Resolution waives certain procedural objections, sets specific debate times, and allows for a motion to recommit, streamlining the legislative process for these significant matters.
