                               RESOLUTION


 
Providing for the consideration of the bill (H.R. 2539) to abolish the 
   Interstate Commerce Commission, to amend subtitle IV of title 49, 
 United States Code, to reform economic regulation of transportation, 
                        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. 2539) to abolish the 
Interstate Commerce Commission, to amend subtitle IV of title 49, 
United States Code, to reform economic regulation of transportation, 
and for other purposes. The first reading of the bill shall be 
dispensed with. All points of order against consideration of the bill 
for failure to comply with section 302(f) or 308(a) of the 
Congressional Budget Act of 1974 are waived. 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 Transportation and Infrastructure. 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 Transportation and 
Infrastructure now printed in the bill. The committee amendment in the 
nature of a substitute shall be considered by title rather than by 
section. The first section and each title shall be considered as read. 
Points of order against the committee amendment in the nature of a 
substitute for failure to comply with clause 5(a) of rule XXI or 
section 302(f) of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 are waived. 
Before consideration of any other amendment, it shall be in order 
without intervention of any point of order to consider the amendment 
caused by the chairman of the Committee on Transportation and 
Infrastructure to be printed in the portion of the Congressional Record 
designated for that purpose in clause 6 of rule XXIII. That amendment 
may be offered only by the chairman of the Committee on Transportation 
and Infrastructure or his designee, shall be considered as read, shall 
be debatable for ten minutes equally divided and controlled by the 
proponent and an opponent, shall not be subject to amendment, and shall 
not be subject to a demand for division of the question in the House or 
in the Committee of the Whole. If that amendment is adopted, the bill, 
as amended, shall be considered as the original bill for the purpose of 
further amendment. During further 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.
