 Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 773) to amend the Older 
 Americans Act of 1965 to extend the authorizations of appropriations 
            for that Act, and to make technical corrections.

    Resolved, That immediately upon the adoption of this resolution the 
Speaker shall, 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. 773) to amend the Older 
Americans Act of 1965 to extend the authorizations of appropriations 
for that Act, and to make technical corrections. The first reading of 
the bill shall be dispensed with. General debate shall be confined to 
the bill and shall not exceed 2 hours equally divided and controlled by 
the chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee on Education 
and the Workforce. After general debate the bill shall be considered 
for amendment under the five-minute rule. Each section shall be 
considered as read. During consideration of the bill for 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 in rule XVIII. 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.
    Sec. 2. If the Committee of the Whole rises and reports that it has 
come to no resolution on the bill, then on the next legislative day the 
House shall, immediately after the third daily order of business under 
clause 1 of rule XIV, resolve into the Committee of the Whole for 
further consideration of the bill.
