General debate shall be confined to the bill and shall not exceed two 
hours equally divided and controlled by the chairman and ranking 
minority member of the Committee on Education and the Workforce. After

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 Education 
and the Workforce now printed in the bill, modified by the amendments 
printed in part A of the report of the Committee on Rules accompanying 
this resolution. That amendment in the nature of a substitute shall be 
considered as read. Points of order against that amendment in the 
nature of a substitute for failure to comply with clause 4 of rule XXI 
are waived. No amendment to that amendment in the nature of a 
substitute shall be in order except those printed in part B 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 the time specified in the report equally divided and 
controlled by the proponent and an opponent, shall not be subject to 
amendment, and shall not be subject to a demand for division of the 
question in the House or in the Committee of the Whole. 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 instruction.
