                                                         April 1, 2004.
    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 further consideration 
of the bill (H.R. 3550) to authorize funds for Federal-aid highways, highway 
safety programs, and transit programs, and for other purposes. No further 
general debate (except for the final period contemplated in the order of the 
House of March 30, 2004) shall be in order. The amendment in the nature of a 
substitute recommended by the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure now 
printed in the bill, modified by the amendments printed in part A of the report 
of the Committee on Rules accompanying this resolution, shall be considered as 
adopted in the House and in the Committee of the Whole. The bill, as amended, 
shall be considered as the original bill for the purpose of further amendment 
under the five-minute rule and shall be considered as read. All points of order 
against provisions in the bill, as amended, are waived. No further amendment 
shall be in order except those printed in part B of the report of the Committee 
on Rules. Each further 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, and shall not 
be subject to amendment or demand for division of the question. All points of 
order against such further amendments are waived. At the conclusion of 
consideration of the bill, as amended, the Committee shall rise and report the 
bill, as amended, to the House with such further 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. The amendment considered as adopted under the first section of this 
resolution shall be considered an amendment offered under section 411 of House 
Concurrent Resolution 95.

                                                                          Clerk.
