Sets forth the rule for consideration of H.B. 4909 (National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2017) in the House of Representatives.

AI Summary

This Resolution establishes the rules for how the House of Representatives will consider H.B. 4909, also known as the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2017, which outlines funding for the Department of Defense's military activities and construction, as well as personnel levels. Specifically, it dictates that only amendments pre-approved and printed in the report from the Committee on Rules, or those grouped together as "amendments en bloc" by the chair of the Committee on Armed Services, will be allowed for further debate and voting. These specific amendments will be considered in a set order, have limited debate time, and cannot be further amended or divided for separate votes. The resolution also waives any objections to these specific amendments and sets the stage for a final vote on the bill after all amendments are considered, allowing for only one final motion to send the bill back for potential changes.
