                               RESOLUTION


 
    Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 6) to extend the 
 authorization of programs under the Higher Education Act of 1965, 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. 6) to extend the 
authorization of programs under the Higher Education Act of 1965, and 
for other purposes. The first reading of the bill shall be dispensed 
with. All points of order against consideration of the bill 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 Education and the Workforce. 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 Education 
and the Workforce now printed in the bill, modified by the amendments 
printed in part 1 of the report of the Committee on Rules accompanying 
this resolution. That amendment in the nature of a substitute shall be 
considered by title rather than by section. Each title shall be 
considered as read. All points of order against that amendment in the 
nature of a substitute are waived. Before consideration of any other 
amendment it shall be in order to consider the amendment printed in 
part 2 of the report of the Committee on Rules, if offered by 
Representative Goodling or his designee. That amendment shall be 
considered as read, shall be debatable for 20 minutes equally divided 
and controlled by the proponent and an opponent, shall not be subject 
to amendment, and shall not be subject to a demand for division of the 
question in the House or in the Committee of the Whole. All points of 
order against that amendment are waived. If that amendment is adopted, 
the provisions of the amendment in the nature of a substitute as then 
perfected shall be considered as original text for the purpose of 
further amendment. No other amendment to the amendment in the nature of 
a substitute shall be in order except those printed in the portion of 
the Congressional Record designated for that purpose in clause 6 of 
rule XXIII. Printed amendments 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 amendment in the nature of 
a substitute ultimately considered 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.
