                               RESOLUTION


 
    Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 791) to amend the 
 National Trails System Act to designate the route of the War of 1812 
British invasion of Maryland and Washington, District of Columbia, and 
the route of the American defense, for study for potential addition to 
                      the national trails system.

    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 bill (H.R. 791) to amend the 
National Trails System Act to designate the route of the War of 1812 
British invasion of Maryland and Washington, District of Columbia, and 
the route of the American defense, for study for potential addition to 
the national trails system. The first reading of the bill shall be 
dispensed with. 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 Resources. 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 Resources now 
printed in the bill. The committee amendment in the nature of a 
substitute shall be considered as read. During consideration of the 
bill for amendment, the 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 8 of rule 
XVIII. 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.
