    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. 1104) to prevent child abduction, and for other purposes. 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 one hour, with 45 minutes equally divided and 
controlled by the chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee on the 
Judiciary and 15 minutes 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. 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 the Judiciary now printed in the bill. The 
committee amendment in the nature of a substitute shall be considered as read. 
All points of order against the committee amendment in the nature of a 
substitute are waived. No amendment to the committee amendment in the nature of 
a substitute shall be in order except those printed in the report of the 
Committee on Rules accompanying this resolution. 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. All points of order against such amendments are waived. 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 committee amendment in the nature 
of a substitute. 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. After passage of H.R. 1104, it shall be in order to consider in the 
House S. 151. All points of order against the Senate bill and against its 
consideration are waived. It shall be in order to move to strike all after the 
enacting clause of the Senate bill and to insert in lieu thereof the provisions 
of H.R. 1104 as passed by the House. All points of order against that motion are 
waived. If the motion is adopted and the Senate bill, as amended, is passed, 
then it shall be in order to move that the House insist on its amendments to S. 
151 and request a conference with the Senate thereon.
            Attest:

                                                                          Clerk.
