Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 3310) to amend chapter 35 
   of title 44, United States Code, for the purpose of facilitating

House resolved into the Committee of the Whole House on the state of 
the Union for consideration of the bill (H.R. 3310) to amend chapter 35 
of title 44, United States Code, for the purpose of facilitating 
compliance by small businesses with certain Federal paperwork

of streamlining paperwork requirements applicable to small businesses. 
The first reading of the bill shall be dispensed with. Points of order 
against consideration of the bill for failure to comply with clause

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 Government 
Reform and Oversight. 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 Government Reform and Oversight 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 section 303 or section 311 of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974

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: (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 15 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.
