                               RESOLUTION


 
    Providing for the consideration of the bill (H.R. 927) to seek 
international sanctions against the Castro government in Cuba, to plan 
  for support of a transition government leading to a democratically 
          elected government in Cuba, and for other purposes.

    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. 927) to seek 
international sanctions against the Castro government in Cuba, to plan 
for support of a transition government leading to a democratically 
elected government in Cuba, and for other purposes. The first reading 
of the bill shall be dispensed with. Points of order against 
consideration of the bill for failure to comply with clause 2(l)(2)(B) 
of rule XI are waived. General debate shall be confined to the bill and 
shall not exceed two and one half hours equally divided and controlled 
by the chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee on 
International Relations. After general debate the bill shall be 
considered for amendment under the five-minute rule. In lieu of the 
amendment recommended by the Committee on International Relations now 
printed in the bill, it shall be in order to consider as an original 
bill for the purpose of amendment under the five-minute rule an 
amendment in the nature of a substitute consisting of the text of H.R. 
2347. That amendment in the nature of a substitute shall be considered 
as read. Points of order against that amendment in the nature of a 
substitute for failure to comply with clause 7 of rule XVI are waived. 
Before consideration of any other amendment it shall be in order to 
consider a further amendment in the nature of a substitute by 
Representative Hamilton of Indiana or his designee. Such a further 
amendment in the nature of a substitute shall be considered as read, 
shall be debatable for one hour equally divided and controlled by the 
proponent and an opponent, and shall not be subject to amendment. If 
such a further amendment in the nature of a substitute is rejected or 
not offered, then no further amendment shall be in order except those 
printed in the report of the Committee on Rules accompanying this 
resolution. Each further amendment may be considered only in the order 
printed in the report, may be offered only by a Member designated in 
the report, shall be considered as read, shall be debatable for twenty 
minutes equally divided and controlled by the proponent and an 
opponent, shall not be subject to amendment except as specified in the 
report, and shall not be subject to a demand for division of the 
question in the House or in the Committee of the Whole. The Chairman of 
the Committee of the Whole may postpone until a time during further 
consideration in the Committee of the Whole a request for a recorded 
vote on any amendment. The Chairman of the Committee of the Whole may 
reduce to not less than five minutes the time for voting by electronic 
device on any postponed question that immediately follows another vote 
by electronic device without intervening business, provided that the 
time for voting by electronic device on the first in any series of 
questions shall be not less than fifteen minutes. 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 
amendment in the nature of a substitute made in order as original text. 
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.
