Providing for consideration of the concurrent resolution (H. Con. Res. 
    68) establishing the congressional budget for the United States 
Government for fiscal year 2000 and setting forth appropriate budgetary 
         levels for each of the fiscal years 2001 through 2009.

    Resolved, That at any time after the adoption of this resolution 
the Speaker may, pursuant to clause 2(b) of rule XVIII, 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. 
68) establishing the congressional budget for the United States 
Government for fiscal year 2000 and setting forth appropriate budgetary 
levels for each of the fiscal years 2001 through 2009. The first 
reading of the concurrent resolution shall be dispensed with. Points of 
order against consideration of the concurrent resolution for failure to 
comply with clause 4(a) of rule XIII are waived. 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 
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. The amendment specified in part 1 of the 
report of the Committee on Rules accompanying this resolution shall be 
considered as adopted in the House and in the Committee of the Whole. 
The concurrent resolution, as amended, shall be considered as read. No 
further amendment 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 40 minutes 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. After the conclusion of consideration of the 
concurrent resolution for amendment and a final period of general 
debate, which shall not exceed 10 minutes equally divided and 
controlled by the chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee 
on the Budget, the Committee shall rise and report the concurrent 
resolution, as amended, to the House with such further amendment as may 
have been adopted. 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 XXIII shall not apply with respect to the adoption by 
the Congress of a concurrent resolution on the budget for fiscal year 
2000.
