    Resolved, That upon the adoption of this resolution it shall be in

section 425(a) of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974), shall be 
considered as read, shall be separately debatable for ninety minutes 
equally divided and controlled by the proponent and an opponent, and

to recommit with or without instructions.
    Sec. 3. The amendment in the nature of a substitute recommended by 
the Committee on Economic and Educational Opportunities now printed in 
H.R. 1227 is modified by the following amendment: Immediately after the 
enacting clause insert the following new section (and redesignate 
succeeding sections accordingly):
    ``Section 1. This Act may be cited as the `Employee Commuting 
Flexibility Act of 1996'.''.
    Sec. 4. (a) In the engrossment of H.R. 3448, the Clerk shall--
            (1) await the disposition of H.R. 1227 pursuant to section 
        2 of this resolution;
            (2) add the text of H.R. 1227, as passed by the House, as 
        new matter at the end of H.R. 3448;
