    Resolved, That immediately upon the adoption of this resolution the 
House shall resolve into the Committee of the Whole House on the state 
of the Union for consideration of the bill (H.R. 325) to amend the Fair 
Labor Standards Act of 1938 to increase the Federal minimum wage. The 
first reading of the bill shall be dispensed with. All points of order 
against consideration of the bill are waived. General debate shall be 
confined to the bill and shall not exceed 2 hours, equally divided and 
controlled by the Chairman and Ranking Member of the Committee on 
Education and the Workforce. After general debate the bill shall be 
considered for amendment under the five-minute rule. The bill shall be 
considered as read. 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 instructions.
    Sec. 2. (a) The Clerk shall not prepare the engrossment of H.R. 325 
until the 30th calendar day following its passage. If, before such 30th 
calendar day, the House has passed a bill introduced by Representative 
Rangel of New York and Representative Tanner of Tennessee relating to 
tax relief for small businesses, then the Clerk shall prepare 
immediately the engrossment of H.R. 325 in the form described in 
subsection (b).
    (b) If the bill described in subsection (a) is passed by the House 
within the time period described in subsection (a), the Clerk, in the 
engrossment of H.R. 325, shall--
            (1) add at the end of the text of H.R. 325, as passed by 
        the House, the text of the bill described in subsection (a), as 
        passed by the House;
            (2) conform the title of H.R. 325 to reflect the addition 
        of the bill described in subsection (a) to its engrossment;
            (3) assign appropriate designations to provisions within 
        the engrossment; and
            (4) conform provisions for short titles within the 
        engrossment.
    (c) Upon the addition of its text to the engrossment of H.R. 325, 
the bill described in subsection (a) shall be laid on the table.
