AI Summary

This Resolution establishes the rules for considering two separate matters in the House of Representatives: first, a bill (H.B. 26) that would require major rules issued by executive branch agencies to be approved by a joint resolution of Congress before they can take effect, meaning Congress would have to pass a law specifically agreeing to the rule; and second, a resolution (H. Res. 11) that expresses disapproval of United Nations Security Council Resolution 2334, viewing it as a hindrance to peace between Israelis and Palestinians. The Resolution outlines specific time limits and procedures for debate and amendment for both the bill and the resolution, waiving certain procedural objections to ensure their consideration.
