Providing for the consideration of the bill (H.R. 1993) to reauthorize 
     the Overseas Private Investment Corporation and the Trade and 
              Development Agency, 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. 1993) to reauthorize the 
Overseas Private Investment Corporation and the Trade and Development 
Agency, 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 International Relations. 
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 an 
amendment in the nature of a substitute consisting of the bill modified 
by the amendments recommended by the Committee on International 
Relations now printed in the bill. Each section of that amendment in 
the nature of a substitute shall be considered as read. No amendment to 
that amendment in the nature of a substitute shall be in order except 
those printed in the portion of the Congressional Record designated for 
that purpose in clause 8 of rule XVIII and except pro forma amendments 
for the purpose of debate. Each amendment so printed may be offered 
only by the Member who caused it to be printed or his designee and 
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 amendment in the nature of a substitute made in order as 
original text. 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.
