  Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 2431) to establish an 
    Office of Religious Persecution Monitoring, to provide for the 
   imposition of sanctions against countries engaged in a pattern of 
             religious persecution, 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. 2431) to establish an 
Office of Religious Persecution Monitoring, to provide for the 
imposition of sanctions against countries engaged in a pattern of

bill and shall not exceed one hour equally divided and controlled by 
the chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee on 
International Relations. After general debate the bill shall be 
considered for amendment under the five-minute rule. In lieu of the 
amendments recommended by the Committees on International Relations, 
the Judiciary, and Ways and Means now printed in the bill, it shall be 
in order to consider as an original bill for the purpose of amendment 
under the five-minute rule an amendment in the nature of a substitute 
consisting of the text of H.R. 3806, 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 as read. No amendment to that amendment in the nature of a 
substitute shall be in order except those printed in part 2 of the 
report of the Committee on Rules. Each amendment may be offered 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, 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 the amendments printed in the report are waived. 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.
