Bill > HRes964

This Resolution establishes the rules for considering H.B. 6157, a bill that makes appropriations for the Department of Defense for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2019. It outlines that the House of Representatives will go into the Committee of the Whole to debate and vote on this bill, with specific limitations on what amendments can be offered and how they will be debated, ensuring that only amendments pre-approved by the Committee on Rules and certain pro forma amendments can be considered. The Resolution also addresses proceedings during a specific period from June 29, 2018, through July 9, 2018, allowing the Speaker to adjourn the House and appoint members to act as Chair, and importantly, it makes it permissible to consider resolutions for adjourning Congress during July 2018 without facing procedural objections.
