                               RESOLUTION


 
      Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 3666) making 
appropriations for the Departments of Veterans Affairs and Housing and 
    Urban Development, and for sundry independent agencies, boards, 
   commissions, corporations, and offices for the fiscal year ending 
              September 30, 1997, 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. 3666) making 
appropriations for the Departments of Veterans Affairs and Housing and 
Urban Development, and for sundry independent agencies, boards, 
commissions, corporations, and offices for the fiscal year ending 
September 30, 1997, 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)(6) of rule XI, clause 7 
of rule XXI, or section 302(f) 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 Appropriations. After 
general debate the bill shall be considered for amendment under the 
five-minute rule. Points of order against provisions in the bill (other 
than sections 204 and 205) for failure to comply with clause 2 or 6 of 
rule XXI are waived. The amendment printed in section 2 of this 
resolution shall be considered as adopted in the House and in the 
Committee of the Whole. 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. 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. After the reading of the final lines of the 
bill, a motion that the Committee of the Whole rise and report the bill 
to the House with such amendments as may have been adopted shall, if 
offered by the majority leader or a designee, have precedence over a 
motion to amend. 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. 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.
    Sec. 2. The amendment considered as adopted in the House and in the 
Committee of the Whole is as follows:
    Page 68, line 23, strike ``future legislation'' and insert in lieu 
thereof ``future appropriations legislation''.
