   Providing for the consideration of the bill (H.R. 2) to give the 
President item veto authority over appropriation Acts and targeted tax 
                       benefits in revenue Acts.

    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. 2) to give the President 
item veto authority over appropriation Acts and targeted tax benefits 
in revenue Acts. The first reading of the bill shall be dispensed with. 
General debate shall be confined to the bill and shall not exceed two 
hours, with one hour equally divided and controlled by the chairman and 
ranking minority member of the Committee on Government Reform and 
Oversight and 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. In lieu of the amendments recommended by the Committee on 
Government Reform and Oversight and the Committee on Rules, 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 
printed in the report of the Committee on Rules accompanying this 
resolution. That amendment in the nature of a substitute shall be 
considered as read. Points of order against the 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 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.
