  Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 3) to combat violent 
youth crime and increase accountability for juvenile criminal offenses.

    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. 3) to combat violent 
youth crime and increase accountability for juvenile criminal offenses. 
The first reading of the bill shall be dispensed with. 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 the Judiciary. 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 the Judiciary now printed in the bill. 
The committee amendment in the nature of a substitute 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 are waived. No amendment to the committee amendment in the 
nature of a substitute shall be in order except those printed in the 
report of the Committee on Rules accompanying this resolution. Each 
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 the time specified in the 
report 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: (1) postpone until a time during further 
consideration in the Committee of the Whole a request for a recorded 
vote on any amendment; and (2) reduce to five minutes the minimum time 
for electronic voting on any postponed question that follows another 
electronic vote without intervening business, provided that the minimum 
time for electronic voting on the first in any series of questions 
shall be 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 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.
