It waives all objections to considering this report, meaning it can be voted on without debate or amendments. The Resolution also sets procedures for legislative proceedings between June 23, 2016, and July 4, 2016, allowing for the consideration of adjournment resolutions and giving the Speaker authority to adjourn the House and appoint members to preside. Finally, it permits the Speaker to entertain motions to suspend the rules on specific days within that period, which is a procedural step to quickly pass legislation.
