  Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 1162) to establish a 
Deficit Reduction Trust Fund and provide for the downward adjustment of 
         discretionary spending limits in appropriation bills.
    Resolved, That at any time after the adoption of this resolution 
the Speaker may, pursuant to clause 1(b) of rule XXIII, declare the 
House resolved into the Committee of the Whole House on the state of 
the Union for consideration of the bill (H.R. 1162) to establish a 
Deficit Reduction Trust Fund and provide for the downward adjustment of 
discretionary spending limits in appropriation bills. The first reading 
of the bill shall be dispensed with. General debate shall be confined 
to the bill and shall not exceed one hour equally divided and 
controlled by the chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee 
on Rules. After general debate the bill shall be considered for 
amendment under the five-minute rule. It shall be in order to consider 
as an original bill for the purpose of amendment under the five-minute 
rule the amendment in the nature of a substitute recommended by the 
Committee on Rules. The committee amendment in the nature of a 
substitute shall be considered as read. Points of order against the 
committee amendment in the nature of a substitute for failure to comply 
with clause 7 of rule XVI are waived. During consideration of the bill 
for amendment, the Chairman of the Committee of the Whole may accord 
priority in recognition on the basis of whether the Member offering an 
amendment has caused it to be printed in the portion of the 
Congressional Record designated for that purpose in clause 6 of rule 
XXIII. Amendments so printed shall be considered as read. At the 
conclusion of consideration of the bill for amendment the Committee 
shall rise and report the bill to the House with such amendments as may 
have been adopted. Any Member may demand a separate vote in the House 
on any amendment adopted in the Committee of the Whole to the bill or 
to the committee amendment in the nature of a substitute. The previous 
question shall be considered as ordered on the bill and amendments 
thereto to final passage without intervening motion except one motion 
to recommit with or without instructions.
