                               RESOLUTION


 
      Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 2606) making 
 appropriations for foreign operations, export financing, and related 
 programs for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2000, and for other 
                               purposes.

    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. 2606) making 
appropriations for foreign operations, export financing, and related 
programs for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2000, and for other 
purposes. 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 Appropriations. After general 
debate the bill shall be considered for amendment under the five-minute 
rule. Points of order against provisions in the bill for failure to 
comply with clause 2 of rule XXI are waived. Before consideration of 
any other amendment it shall be in order to consider the amendments 
printed in part A of the report of the Committee on Rules accompanying 
this resolution. Each amendment printed in part A of the report may be 
considered only in the order printed in the report. The amendment 
printed in part B of the report may be offered only at the appropriate 
point in the reading of the bill. Each amendment 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, 
and shall not be subject to amendment. All points of order against the 
amendments printed in the report are waived. During consideration of 
the bill for further 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. 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.
