Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 3822) to reduce, suspend, 
 or terminate any assistance under the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 
   and the Arms Export Control Act to each country determined by the 
  President to be engaged in oil price fixing to the detriment of the 
             United States economy, 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. 3822) to reduce, suspend, 
or terminate any assistance under the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 
and the Arms Export Control Act to each country determined by the 
President to be engaged in oil price fixing to the detriment of the 
United States economy, 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 the amendment in the nature of a substitute 
recommended by the Committee on International Relations now printed in 
the bill, modified by striking subsection 6(c). 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.
