Bill > HRes230

This Resolution sets the stage for the House of Representatives to consider a joint resolution, specifically S.J. Res. 34, which aims to overturn a rule created by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) concerning the privacy of customers of broadband and other telecommunications services. The FCC is the government agency responsible for regulating interstate and international communications by radio, television, wire, satellite, and cable in the United States. Chapter 8 of title 5 of the United States Code outlines a process called "congressional disapproval," which allows Congress to review and potentially reject certain rules issued by federal agencies. This Resolution waives all procedural objections that might prevent the House from debating and voting on S.J. Res. 34, allowing for one hour of debate and a single motion to send the resolution back for further consideration before a final vote.
