                               RESOLUTION


 
Providing for consideration of the concurrent resolution (H. Con. Res. 
284) revising the congressional budget for the United States Government 
  for fiscal year 1998, establishing the congressional budget for the 
   United States Government for fiscal year 1999, and setting forth 
  appropriate budgetary levels for fiscal years 2000, 2001, 2002, and 
                                 2003.

    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 concurrent resolution (H. Con. Res. 
284) revising the congressional budget for the United States Government 
for fiscal year 1998, establishing the congressional budget for the 
United States Government for fiscal year 1999, and setting forth 
appropriate budgetary levels for fiscal years 2000, 2001, 2002, and 
2003. The first reading of the concurrent resolution shall be dispensed 
with. General debate shall not exceed three hours, with two hours of 
general debate confined to the congressional budget equally divided and 
controlled by the chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee 
on the Budget, and one hour of general debate on the subject of 
economic goals and policies equally divided and controlled by 
Representative Saxton of New Jersey and Representative Stark of 
California or their designees. After general debate the concurrent 
resolution shall be considered for amendment under the five-minute 
rule. It shall be in order to consider as an original concurrent 
resolution for the purpose of amendment under the five-minute rule the 
amendment in the nature of a substitute 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. All points 
of order against that amendment in the nature of a substitute are 
waived. 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 one 
hour equally divided and controlled by the proponent and an opponent, 
and shall not be subject to amendment. All points of order against the 
amendments printed in the report are waived except that the adoption of 
an amendment in the nature of a substitute shall constitute the 
conclusion of consideration of the concurrent resolution for amendment. 
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 concurrent resolution for amendment the 
Committee shall rise and report the concurrent resolution 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 by the Committee of 
the Whole to the concurrent resolution 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 concurrent resolution 
and amendments thereto to final adoption without intervening motion 
except amendments offered by the chairman of the Committee on the 
Budget pursuant to section 305(a)(5) of the Congressional Budget Act of 
1974 to achieve mathematical consistency. The concurrent resolution 
shall not be subject to a demand for division of the question of its 
adoption.
    Sec. 2. Rule XLIX shall not apply with respect to the adoption by 
the Congress of a concurrent resolution on the budget for fiscal year 
1999.
